Warren Tavern

Warren Tavern dates to 1780, giving a meal at this Charlestown pub a little more historical context than most. It stands on Pleasant Street, and its own history records visits by George Washington and Paul Revere. You don’t need to make an occasion of it, though: the current menu is built around familiar tavern food, including clam chowder, lobster rolls, burgers and shepherd’s pie.

The bar serves Guinness, wine and cocktails, while the restaurant takes reservations and offers takeout and delivery. Come for a meal or a drink, with the building’s long history as part of the setting. Check kitchen hours if you’re planning to eat late in the evening.
