Dining

When you think Boston you probably think seafood - and rightly so! The city is known for its great fish - everything from lobsters, oysters, clams, shrimp and more! During your time in your Boston short term housing, be sure to have one meal (or more) of the area's seafood. You'll surely enjoy the rich taste from the Boston Harbor. Although you'll find seafood on almost every restaurant menu, some local favorites include Legal Sea Foods, Ye Old Oyster House and East Coast Grill and Raw Bar.

But seafood isn't Boston's only specialty. Top chefs have flocked to the city and have opened restaurants to satisfy the tastes of Boston residents. The city has everything from Mediterranean to French to South American. Boston short term housing residents can enjoy a meal on the Harbor or in downtown Boston - the choices are endless. Top picks include L'Espalier, Dali and Mamma Maria.

Nightlife

If you're looking for a good time, you won't be let down by Boston's nightlife. Boston short term housing residents can enjoy everything from bars to bowling alleys, where you're sure to find a great time.

Boston's bars may not be exact Cheers' replicas, but many have a similar feel. These watering holes tend to be loud places where locals gather. Shop around a few of these bars to find the one that feels most like home to you. Then grab a drink and get ready to mingle with the locals! Favorites include Boston Beer Works, Green Street Grill and Grendel's Den.

If you prefer the club scene, there are several clubs with live music and hopping beats, mostly located on Lansdowne Street or Boylston Place. Many dance clubs have dress codes, so it may be best to call ahead to make sure you are dressed appropriately. Popular choices include Axis, Aria or the Lizard Lounge, so check them out while in your Boston short term housing.

An alternative Boston nighttime activity is bowling! Boston short term housing residents can bowl it up at several alleys around town, such as Kings, Sacco's Bowl Haven and Lucky Strike Lanes. Many bowling alleys have a sophisticated atmosphere, perfect for a fun night on the town.
