The piles of snow have finally melted and the weather is heating up here in Boston. There is nothing quite like spring and summertime when patios open for al fresco dining. We look forward to warm clambakes enjoyed outside at places like Precinct Kitchen + Bar.
Located on the subterranean space of the Loews Boston Hotel, the restaurant offers one of the best deals in town now with $1 oysters (think Malpeques, Powder Points and Blue Points) daily from 4 to 6 p.m. We recommend a sampling of these briny bivalves before moving on to a charcuterie board, mussels, dry aged burger (served at the bar), date wrapped prosciutto stuffed with manchego cheese, steak frites served with parmesan truffle fries or scallops atop a parsnip puree.
If you have always wondered what it would be like to stay in a police station, but never wanted to get that close, now is your chance for bragging rights. The Loews Boston Hotel once housed the Boston Police Headquarters. Head upstairs and book yourself a stay in a spacious guest room or luxury suite at this Back Bay hotel. Each room at this pet-friendly hotel offers complimentary wi-fi, a flat screen TV, Frette bedding, a walk-in shower and separate soaking tub.
(Editor’s Note: If you book a stay in one of the premium rooms, you will get an early check-in at noontime and a late check-out at 2 p.m. along with complimentary turndown and bottled water).
Loews Boston Hotel is located at 154 Berkeley Street in Boston. For more information, visit https://www.loewshotels.com/boston-hotel/.
