Monument Charlestown Restaurant and Tavern

Monument Restaurant & Tavern puts wood-fired pizza alongside burgers, salads and seasonal entrees at 251 Main Street in Charlestown. Shareable starters leave room for ordering a few things for the table, while the bar pours cocktails, beer and wine. It serves weekday lunch and weekend brunch as well as dinner, making the menu you see depend on when you arrive.

There’s a smaller midday menu between lunch and dinner, followed by a separate late-night menu after the main kitchen service. That distinction is useful if you’re coming for a particular dish. Book ahead for a weekend dinner, or try a walk-in when seats are available; takeout is also offered.
