"Union Oyster House is the oldest restaurant in town, and the state’s oldest. Don’t come here expecting anything besides tried-and-true New England dishes like baked beans, clam chowder, and broiled scrod in bread crumbs alongside mashed potatoes. The brick building and multi-paned windows sure look the part in this building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Bonus for history buffs: it’s fittingly right on the Freedom Trail." - Molly McDonough
