"Who doesn’t love a pairing of literature and lunch? You can drink cocktails and have a bite at the Boston Public Library’s beautiful main branch in Copley Square. The Map Room Tea Lounge is open for tea time reservations on Friday and Saturday afternoons or walk-in bar bites Wednesday through Saturday afternoons, featuring literature-inspired, tea-infused cocktails. The bar bite selection isn’t very extensive, but the ambiance is a must for book lovers, and the perfect mid-day escape for a solo explorer." - Nathan Tavares, Tanya Edwards, Eater Staff
