"This Newbury Street spot is basically a love letter to the seaside shacks of New England, but make it a little bit fancy and drop it in a Back Bay brownstone. The roll is available cold with mayo, or hot with butter, but what lands this bad boy on our list is the buttery brioche roll from Iggy’s Bread over in Cambridge. The super dense roll isn’t heavy, but still manages to keep its structural integrity in the face of melted butter and mayo while soaking up all the lobster juice, which your mouth is going to be super happy about." - tanya edwards, team infatuation
