W Boston Condos & The Living Room

By Erica Farthing 25 06 2009

The all-new W Boston condos are all the rage and talk about town these days. With this hot new luxury Boston condo development hitting town and opening in Boston’s Midtown & Theater District this coming fall, there is a lot of discussion on just how it will affect the Boston social scene on a variety of levels.

W Boston condos will feature the well-known worldwide W brand for its luxury hotel brand and sexy W style can be seen in the W Boston’s hotel, condos, and new lounges/bars. W hotels are an example of a global lifestyle brand featuring a dynamic combination of chic design & ultimate comfort from such cultural influences as fashion, music, and art.

The lobby bar, just as it is called at every other W Hotel lobby bar worldwide is set to be called, The Living Room. Uh oh. If you are familiar with Boston’s North End you will know that Boston already has a bar called The Living Room…things could get a little confusing.

Not only could the same names in the same city get confusing…but the same concept! The Living Room in Boston’s North End is well-known throughout the city for its signature cocktails, board games, and comfortable “loungey yet chic” atmosphere perfect for anything from after work drinks to Sunday brunch. And what will the W Boston’s The Living Room feature? You guessed it- signature cocktails and board games!

While we eagerly anticipate the opening of the W Boston condos and its fabulous hotel, we must also wait in anticipation on what the outcome of this Living Room mix-up could be! I guess we will have to just start using street addresses when telling our friends to meet us at “The Living Room”.

Regardless of the outcome, who isn’t excited for more lounges with board games? I know I am.

Waterfront Boston Condos: Living on a Wharf

By Erica Farthing 27 05 2009

One of the great aspects of Boston that sets it apart from other major cities across the U.S. and around the world is that fact that it is situated along the water with gorgeous views of Boston Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. The crisp, blue ocean water plays host to a variety of ships and boats and is always there for a gorgeous view.

Boston condos have been built along Boston’s beautiful waterfront and one of the most common areas you can find them is along the various Wharfs found throughout Boston. A Wharf is like a pier projecting and raised over the water and Wharf living in Boston holds some of the most exclusive and unique Boston condos available on the waterfront.

Living in a Boston condo on the waterfront on a Wharf allows you to sit back in the privacy of your own home while taking in the breathtaking sight of ships coming in and out of the harbor, the sparkling blue water, and the glistening city in the back drop. Some waterfront Boston condos can be found along these well-known Boston wharves: Battery Wharf, Russia Wharf, Burroughs Wharf, Commercial Wharf, India Wharf, Lewis Wharf, Lincoln Wharf, Rowes Wharf, Union Wharf, and Constellation Wharf. (Please feel free to let me know if I have overlooked any!)

North End Shopping, Simply Fabulous

By Erica Farthing 15 05 2009

Shopping has never been so fabulous in the North End. I may be a tad partial as a North End resident myself, but the other day I stumbled upon yet another awesome boutique…making it quite difficult for myself to decide exactly WHICH one is my favorite!

Bobbles & Lace located at 26 Prince St is simply wonderful. New inventory arrives every day to this adorable boutique and with only a limited number of pieces. So, if you are like me and love to have something different than what everyone else is wearing…you must check it out. All dresses are under $70 and all jewelry is under $45! They have a store in Marblehead too!

If you find yourself in the North End anytime soon (with this wonderful weather, you should head out this weekend) I highly recommend taking a look at Bobbles & Lace if you are in the mood to treat yourself to a fabulous yet inexpensive shopping adventure.

And while you’re at it…take a look at Twilight and Velvet Fly (my other favorite boutiques) in between stops at LuLu’s and Florentine (my favorite bakery and spot for lunch) of course. There aren’t many places around that have everything in such close proximity like the North End of Boston. Where else can you walk down a bustling street with your pick of any authentic Italian restaurant, delicious bakeries, and wonderful boutiques?

Boston Restaurants with Patios

By Erica Farthing 6 05 2009

Patio season has arrived. After enjoying a few days with a glorious return of warm weather to Boston…when anyone is deciding on their restaurant dining options…patios play a huge factor. Summertime is just around the corner and the best place to enjoy a night out is on a Boston restaurant patio. Several Boston restaurants with patios offer spectacular views of the city, a great space for people watching, and of course, excellent food & drinks!

Who wants to eat inside on a gorgeous summer evening? I certainly don’t and I doubt you do either.

So what exactly are the best outdoor dining options in Boston? I have developed a list according to the neighborhoods of a few of my personal picks for the best Boston restaurants with patios, please feel free to contact me with more suggestions!

Back Bay
Scoozi: Feel like popping a bottle of champagne at lunch? Well Scoozi on Newbury Street is the place. And if you just want a great salad or sandwich…Scoozi has that too. On the patio you can enjoy taking in the scene of Back Bay’s popular Newbury Street shopping destination as shoppers walk by and the Back Bay buzzes with life after a long winter. It may not be the biggest of Boston restaurant patios, but it’s sure on of my favorites!
Other great Back Bay restaurants with patios: Parish Cafe, Stephanie’s on Newbury, Croma, & Via Matta

South End
Stella: This fantastic South End restaurant offers a fun and exciting atmosphere inside and out. Think South End meets South Beach in this ultra chic restaurant. Enjoy their large cocktail list and delicious Italian food options on the patio at Stella on any given summer day or night.
Other great South End restaurants with patios: The Beehive, Sibling Rivalry, Toro, Masa, & Tremont 647

Fenway
Eastern Standard: By far one of my favorite restaurants in Boston. Sorry to sound partial but it is! Why you ask? Not only do they have a fabulous patio along Comm Ave that reminds me of something you would sit at along Ocean Drive, but their elaborate drink menu and food with New England and European favorites keep you there for hours on end. Whether you are looking to grab a nice meal before hitting up a Red Sox game or just looking for a great Boston restaurant with a patio, Eastern Standard is an excellent choice.
Other great Fenway restaurants with patios: Cask’n Flagon, Burton’s Grille, & La Verdad,

North End/Waterfront
Tias: Where else can you go right after a long work day to enjoy a few drinks and take in the views of Boston Harbor. Situated directly next to Columbus Park and at the foot of Boston’s North End, Tia’s is a great option for outdoor dining in Boston. And with their incredibly spacious patio, locals and tourists alike can enjoy this great outdoor spot.
Other great North End/Waterfront restaurants with patios: Joe’s American Grille, The Living Room, Mother Anna’s, & Fiore

Seaport District/Fort Point Channel
LTK: Legal Test Kitchen located in Boston’s Seaport District offers an extensive menu from everything ranging from your seafood favorites to innovative multi-cultural cuisine. With numerous specialty cocktails on the menu (try the watermelon crush) LTK is one of the best spots to check out in the Seaport District.
Other great Seaport District/Fort Point Channel restaurants with patios: Atlantic Beer Garden, Barking Crab, & 606 Congress

Charlestown
Tavern on the Water: Take in the amazing views of Boston from the other side of Boston Harbor while you drink a dark n stormy. Boaters and land-dwellers unite to celebrate the return of summer. Sit on the patio outside and watch as boats go by. Tavern on the Water is a great option for outdoor patio dining & drinking.
Other great Charlestown restaurants with patios: Navy Yard Bistro

Cambridge
dante: Call me a sucker for amazing views, but then again, isn’t that the point of outdoor dining? And as far as views go, dante is one of the best. Sitting on the Cambridge side of the Charles River, the patio at dante allows you drink in not only their fabulous cocktails but the spectacular views of Boston’s Back Bay and Beacon Hill.
Other great Cambridge restaurants with patios: Upstairs on the Square, OM Restaurant & Lounge, & Oleana

So there you have it. Boston is filled with several options for outdoor dining on patios. I’m sure there are many that I have missed and I promise to be on the search for more Boston restaurants with patios as this great weather continues!

Feel free to shoot me an email or leave a comment on YOUR favorite Boston restaurants with patios, I love hearing from you!
