West End Restaurants

The West End neighborhood of Boston sits on the Charles River which separates Boston from Cambridge. After a stroll along the river or over Longfellow Bridge, be sure to check out the dining options in this chic neighborhood. Like similar areas of Boston, this neighborhood offers a number of authentic Italian restaurants for pasta, meat, fish and pizza choices. With a strong Irish immigrant heritage, the West End also features a number of pubs and sports bars that provide hearty Irish-American fare. The West End also hosts other ethnic options, including Mediterranean and sushi. Being so close to the Boston Harbor and Atlantic Ocean, you will have no trouble finding fresh seafood, including New England clam chowder and lobster rolls. For a sweet dessert or lighter meal, head to one of the neighborhood bakeries, cafes or bagel shops.
