With plenty of New England seafood and ingredients sourced from the owner’s New Hampshire farm throughout the menu,Woods Hill Pier 4 matches elegant dining with a commitment to sustainability and high-quality sourcing. Seaport sibling to Concord’s Woods Hill Table, cityscapes and harborside vistas are perfect pairs to seasonal cocktails, chef Charlie Foster’s brunch bites like Shakshouka, and destination dinner-worthy dishes. Woods Hill Pier 4 is also a beautiful spot for special occasions and private events with waterfront views of Boston Harbor.

Before the Seaport was a rooftop bar-and-restaurant row, Legal Harborside anchored the neighborhood. The three-story flagship Legal Sea Foods offers stunning waterfront panoramas and seafood that has crowds flocking. At street level, you’ll find a casual menu paying homage to the chain’s roots; the second floor hosts private events. What really makes this location stand out is the roof deck. Open year-round, the top-floor lounge has a retractable glass ceiling and a promenade patio with waterfront views of the city skyline, Boston Fish Pier, and beyond. It’s the ultimate spot for some bubbles and oysters. The roof deck is open nightly and on weekend afternoons. 

Located just around the corner from the beloved Boston brewery’s bygone original location, Trillium Fort Point leans into the industrial-chic vibes of the area. Spanning two floors plus a roof deck, this Trillium location has a patio and taproom downstairs plus an elevated farm-to-table menu in the second-floor dining room. Ask about accessing the roof deck for pre-meal or nightcap pints of hazy IPAs, juicy fruited sour beers, and other hits like Citra Free Rise Saison. The drinks-only rooftop patio is open Friday through Sunday with its own bar and comfy, cozy seating. While you wait for a dinner table, take in the frosty brews and city views. 

Brought to us by the crew behind vivacious and vibrant haunts Yvonne’s, Mariel, Ruka, and Coquette, Lolita Tequila Bar shakes up craveable margaritas. In the warmer months, we love the glow-up going from the dark, gothic interior restaurant to the covered patio bar outside, bedecked with bright florals along the Fort Point Channel. Take in the cityscape with a fiery Diablo Margarita (by the glass or pitcher) and a flight of guacamole. Open for dinner nightly and weekend brunch, be sure to plan ahead—views from the patio bar are first-come, first-served.
