7 Best Restaurants in Charlestown | Eater Boston
"Warren Tavern is a Charlestown institution, founded in 1780 and frequented by Bostonian Paul Revere (his North End house is a 20-minute walk away). Ben Franklin and George Washington also visited, and it is where the latter’s funeral speech was given. While comparable institutions may have a tendency for becoming tourist traps serving mediocre-at-best food (see: Quincy Market), Warren Tavern remains a favorite spot for locals to enjoy lunch, dinner, or a drink. It is packed on weekends with diners enjoying New England pub fare like nachos, clam chowder, lobster mac, and burger offerings including the bacon cheddar with barbecue sauce, the Sons of Liberty with mushrooms and gruyere, and the City Square with sauteed onions, American cheese, and “tavern special sauce.”" - Anna Darrow
