Overview

Spend your weekend tracing the bold flavors and storied pasts of Boston’s most historic neighborhoods. This weekend food tour is your ticket to iconic New England eats, deep-rooted traditions, and bites that bring Boston’s history to life.

Begin in the cobblestoned Blackstone Block with a steamy bowl of creamy clam chowder inside one of the city’s oldest taverns, then head to the bustling Boston Public Market to skip the lines for a buttery, freshly made lobster roll. In the North End, follow the aroma of fresh bread to a hot slice of Old World pizza and tales from the neighborhood’s immigrant roots. Sample a crisp, sweet contender in Boston’s legendary Cannoli Wars, then wrap up with a surprise secret dish—something locals love, but few visitors ever get to taste.

Whether you're a history lover chasing local flavor or a weekend foodie ready to explore, this Boston tour delivers—one unforgettable stop at a time.

  • Approximately 3 hours of food tour led by an expert guide
  • Step back in time and taste your way through Boston’s most storied streets.
  • Curated tastings across six iconic food stops:
    • Stop 1 – Chowder in the Cradle of Boston
      Begin in the cobblestoned charm of the Blackstone Block Historic District, where centuries-old taverns echo with the rich history of colonial times. Your first bite: a steaming bowl of creamy New England clam chowder, served in a landmark eatery that’s been dishing up comfort since before the Revolution.
    • Stop 2 – Lobster Roll Hack at Boston Public Market
      Wander into the buzzing Boston Public Market, where fresh seafood and local specialties reign. Learn the insider trick to bypass the crowds and land a buttery lobster roll piled high with sweet, just-caught meat—a modern classic in a sea of tradition.
    • Stop 3 – Bread, Bricks, and Little Italy 
      Head into the North End, Boston’s own Little Italy, where Old World flavors meet brick-lined alleys. The scent of freshly baked bread leads you to a corner bakery that’s been feeding generations of locals. Expect stories, history, and the irresistible warmth of the oven.
    • Stop 4 – A Slice of the Old World
      Next, tuck into a North End pizza slice that’s stood the test of time—crispy, gooey, and straight from a recipe passed down for decades. It's simple, classic, and utterly satisfying.
    • Stop 5 – Cannoli Wars & Sweet Rivalries
      Hear the tale of Boston’s infamous Cannoli Wars — a delicious decades-long rivalry between iconic North End bakeries. Then sink your teeth into one of the top contenders and decide for yourself who’s winning.
    • Stop 6 – A Sweet Secret to End
      End your culinary journey with a surprise secret dish—something bold, local, and unforgettable, handpicked by your guide for the perfect finale.
