History trivia time, Boston. Back in colonial days, before lobsters were the crown jewel of New England seafood, what were they considered? If you guessed prison food and fish bait, you nailed it. Back then, servants even had clauses in their employment contracts limiting how many times a week they had to eat the stuff. Times certainly change. Today, a pristine lobster roll is the ultimate Newbury Street reward—especially when Maine coastal waters are sitting at a crisp 53.4°F, bringing in prime, sweet-meat catch.

Treat yourself right today with our classic Bostonian — $32.90. It is packed with sweet knuckle and claw meat, warm butter, and everything that makes Back Bay dining worth the stroll. While you are stopping by, show today's post to your server for a free cup of Clam Chowdah (dine-in, with purchase, one per table).

Boston is always building something, and right now, the best thing being built is your lunch. While the construction outside our door on Newbury Street keeps the neighborhood moving, the real action is happening 150 miles north in Maine.

Today, the water temperature is sitting at a crisp 54.1°F. If you’re not a lobster, that might sound a bit chilly, but for these crustaceans, it’s the perfect, active feeding zone. This is when they’re at their absolute best—building the sweet, tender meat that we’re serving up here in the Back Bay. There’s no backbone to a lobster, but there’s plenty of heart in the way we prepare them.

Come by and grab our signature Bostonian — $32.90. It’s the kind of meal that reminds you why we’re proud to be a Boston institution, even while the city around us keeps growing and changing.

(Quick reminder: Show this post to your server for a free cup of Clam Chowdah with your order! Dine-in, one per table.)

We’re curious—what’s your go-to side when you’re powering through a work day? Does a cup of Chowdah make the difference, or are you sticking to the roll? Let us know below!

Boston is a city that never stops building, and honestly, we relate. Our neighbors on Newbury Street are busy with construction, keeping the neighborhood alive and growing just like it has been since these tidal flats were filled back in 1857. But if you want to talk about true resilience, look at our main ingredient.

Did you know that lobsters are biologically immortal? They don't show the typical signs of aging that we do; they just keep growing and thriving in the cold New England waters. It’s a pretty incredible fact to ponder while you’re tucking into our signature Bostonian — $32.90. It’s the perfect, hearty lunch to fuel you through a walk in the Public Garden or a stroll down to the Pru.

We’re keeping the kitchen fires hot and the butter melting all day long. If you're stopping by for a bite, make sure to mention this post to your server to grab a free cup of our house-made Chowdah with your purchase (dine-in, one per table). It’s the best way to keep your energy up while the city keeps on building around us.

Boston has always been built on shifting ground—back in 1857, Back Bay itself didn't exist yet, shaped entirely from filled tidal flats. Today, as the neighborhood hums with fall energy and students settling in, we're keeping things rooted in what makes New England waters unmatched: cold, clean tides.

Right now, Maine coastal waters are sitting at a crisp 55.6°F. That is the ultimate sweet spot for lobsters—cold enough to keep them active, feeding, and packing in that clean, sweet meat you can't fake. A lobster takes 5 to 7 years and a 3.25-inch carapace just to reach legal size, and every single day of that cold-water growth shows up in the bowl.

Come grab our signature Bostonian — $32.90, packed with that peak-season meat on a buttery roll. And if you're stopping by today, show your server this post for a free cup of our slow-simmered Clam Chowdah (dine-in, with purchase, one per table).

How do you take your lobster—pure butter, light mayo, or nothing else touching it? Drop your style below.

There is something about a game day in Boston that makes you want to do things right. Over at Fenway Park today, the Red Sox are wrapping up their series against the Royals, and whether you are heading into the ballpark or just soaking up the Back Bay energy, we have got what you need right here at 254 Newbury.

Today, we are talking about a true Boston institution: our Fenway Franks — $9.90. No fuss, no complex plating, just the classic ballpark staple served up hot and right where you want it. Boston's always building something around us, but a good old-fashioned frank on a toasted bun is a permanent fixture of how this city eats.

While the Maine coast is sitting at a crisp 54.7°F and hauling in peak-season lobsters, our grill is fired up for anyone walking the Back Bay on this fine Sunday. Grab a seat, take a break from the Newbury Street stroll, and let us feed you.

*(And hey—don't forget our everyday perk: show your server today's post to get a free cup of our classic Clam Chowdah with your meal, dine-in, one per table.)*

How do you take your Fenway Frank—plain yellow mustard or are you piling on the works? Let us know below.
