Yankee Lobster

Head to this Seaport mainstay—situated mere steps from the Leader Bank Pavilion—for lobster rolls, fried clams, steamers, chowder, and other classic seafood shack dishes. It’s a perfect stop for a refuel while touring around Boston, and a great place in general for a casual seafood meal. There’s outdoor seating as well as takeout. Cooking seafood at home? There’s a market with fresh caught fish and shellfish. They’ll even ship fresh lobster anywhere in the continental US, if you want to share the bounty with out of town friends.
