Lily’s Bar – Pizza – Patio

Lily’s Bar Pizza Patio on Batterymarch Street makes a strong case for ordering a couple of pizzas and letting dinner take its time. The dough gets a 24-hour ferment, and toppings run from a straightforward margherita to sausage with cherry peppers or mushrooms with caramelized onions, fontina and truffle mayo. The patio gives an after-work gathering some outdoor room when the weather cooperates.

There’s plenty beyond pizza: wings, pretzel bites, steak tacos and a burger, plus salads and sandwiches if everyone wants their own plate. Beer and cocktails include an espresso martini and a spicy margarita. This is Lily’s full bar and restaurant; the separate Lily’s Pizza counter on Oliver Street is a different stop.
