Stopped into Stubbys in seaport after grabbing seafood from Wulfs in Boston Provisions Market and needed something quick, ended up being a solid find. Went simple with the chicken finger & fries. Want your typical junky finger, had good meat no fat or hard stuff in it. They were nice and hot, crispy and had good flavor. Deff get the bbq and honey mustard for dipping. Service was fast and friendly, greeted everyone when they walked in (not typical for Boston lol). Inside was on the smaller side with several tables and high top seating but very clean. Menu had a solid range of options for a smaller place.. Subs, sandwiches, burgers, soups, and salads. One of those spots where you could come back a few times and try something different each visit. Only regret.. i missed the special sign that mentioned they had a breakfast burger available that sounded delicious, would've ordered that immediately instead. Overall, Stubbys is a great spot to stop in for a quick bite to eat if you are on the move with solid options to choose from. read more

Stubby's is a casual counter order then sit down restaurant hidden in the seaport. They had lots of sandwich, wrap, soup, and combo options to chose from. I try the fried chicken caesar wrap and it was great! The fried chicken was crispy, perfect amount of sauce, and loved the crunch of the croutons. Only downside was it was a bit small for its price but makes sense given its a seaport establishment. I also got a small side of fries which was solid. Service was pretty nice and fast! read more

Perfect option if you're looking for a quick lunch or dinner. Love the buffalo chicken wrap. Service is friendly and pretty efficient. Place itself is pretty tiny - only a handful of tables, but location is just a block from the harbor so nice to grab food and head over and enjoy water views in the Summer. Highly recommend for a quick bite if you're in the area. read more

Delicious food and great vibes near the Seaport! The fish and chips were perfectly crispy, and the tartar sauce was spot on. The clam chowder was rich and flavorful--especially tasty with the crackers. The two gentlemen behind the counter were welcoming and friendly. Joel was kind enough to share some local tips, and I'm excited to check out the spots he recommended. Casual, laid-back atmosphere makes this a great find! I'd go here again. read more

I'm a burger fanatic and I can say this is an extremely good burger spot. The restaurant is always cleaning and it's around the corner from seaport nightlife. It's open late and the staff are SO NICE. The food is always hot and freshly made. Ample seating as well. Perfect late night snack. I was able to snag street parking across the street and it was after hours so there was no parking charge. I always get the waffle fries although there's a small up-charge. The biggest perk is how FAST they are. I urge everyone to try this once and they'll be hooked. read more

Food: The waffle fries were AMAZING! The chicken sandwich was a little wet from the dressing, a bit too soaked. But the fries made up for it. Also I ended up paying like $20 which was pricey but I guess it's going to serve me a few meals. Service: Food was pretty fast. I was also like the only one there at 7:30pm.

A good-enough place to grab lunch while spending the weekend downtown. A friend and I landed here while attending PAX East. The long walk from the convention center helped ensure no lines. I enjoyed my fried cod sandwich - possibly frozen, but not for too long - and the fresh fries that came with it were a delight. My friend complained about his cheeseburger. It was just a little basic for his expectations. But the waffle fries were superior to the singles I got. I wouldn't hesitate to stop here again. The menu is full of burgers and they have an Impossible option. That said, Stubbys isn't going to be the highlight of your day either. read more

It was great to find something besides the usual sweetgreen or greasy burger options.

We were so hungry after a teeny appetizer at another (unnamed) seafood place, we decided to stop in at Stubby's for some chowder and a grilled cheese which totaled less than one appetizer at the other place. Okay, this isn't gourmet, top quality, or even healthful. But the service is great, Jose was very sweet and cheerful, the chowders were fine, they accommodated my no Canola and grilled our cheese sandwich in butter--real butter, and we could relax and not feel like there were 20 people waiting for our booth. read more

Stubby's is is a very welcome addition to the seaport for some amazing and reasonably priced lunch for the area. I've been about a half dozen times since they opened and the one item that sets us apart is the quality of the bead in their sandwiches. Steak and Cheese - Seriously, this is the best version of this classic I have ever had. It's well seasoned and comes with nuclear colored cheese along with peppers and onions. Cheeseburger sliders - The buns they use really set it apart. The toppings make it feel like a fancier McDonald's burger. Chicken sliders - Again, the bread they use is great. Comes topped with a slice of that nuclear cheese and it tasted great. Breakfast Sandwich - I would recommend it on a bun vs a bagel. All of this and it's opened until 2am on the weekends for a late night snack. read more

I'm a huge breakfast fanatic, especially a good breakfast sandwich or burrito. This is the original location that was started by two friends and has grown to multiple other locations since. We took an Uber here from our hotel. I imagine if you drive over here, parking will be a challenge. It's almost easy to miss. It sits on a corner of a brick building with just writing on the windows. In all my research I did not catch that it is the smallest restaurant in Boston at only 175 square feet. It's basically a room with most of the space taken by the tiny kitchen. There's also a little tiny ledge on the window with a couple of stools for those who may want to dine in. Customers including us took turns walking in and putting in our orders and then stepping out to make room for more people. It had a steady line the whole time we were there. Hours are limited from 7:30-2 so don't delay. Customer service was straight business, kind of the norm in Boston. Their menu is breakfast sandwiches, a couple of burritos and some lunch options like a turkey sandwich, BLT, or a Rueben. For sides, they have hashbrowns or a plain English muffin. For a small menu, they do have quite a few drink options like coffee, tea, juices, and different flavored milks including banana milk which I have never seen. For their food, they use high quality ingredients from local farms and purveyors and have their own bakery for their bread. My eyes fixated on the Breakfast Grilled Crack mainly for the name, but also all the ingredients looked tasty. It was quality eggs, bacon, four cheeses on sourdough bread. I went extra and added sausage to it as well. I also got OJ to wash it down. We realized our only option to eat comfortably was to go back to our hotel lobby to eat. Even with the travel time, the sandwich was nice and warm and the bread was still nice and crispy from the griddle. This sandwich was indeed one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had. I almost felt guilty eating it because of how rich and cheesy it was. I would skip the hash brown next time. It did not travel well nor did it have anything special going on with it. Hands down one of my favorite meals of the trip that I would absolutely do again if I am in the area.

The huevos rancheros were decent, but not quite at the same level. They felt a bit less authentic than expected, and the hot sauce option was limited to Tabasco. I think a more traditional, homemade Mexican-style salsa would have elevated the dish significantly and made it shine. Because of that, I'm giving North Street Grille 4 stars. The French toast is phenomenal, and with a little more attention to authenticity on certain savory dishes, this spot could easily be a 5-star brunch destination. I'd definitely come back! Especially for the French toast.

They offer a brunch menu so you could get breakfast or lunch depending on what you like. I ordered the Eggs Benedict Florentine which came on multigrain bread. I was a little skeptical about it coming on bread instead of an english muffin but I was proven wrong, it was so good!!! I loved mine. The vegan burger was pretty good but a little dry. The huevos rancheros weren't anything to write home about but good. We did feel rushed because of the line so the food came quick and they were quick to bring the bill over once they observed you were close to being done.

We tried 4 different types and every single one tasted super fresh, clean, and just really high quality. You can tell they know what they're doing here, even the way they shuck it is nice and clean, no shell pieces or anything. Their menu actually has like 10+ kinds of oysters, highly selective and premium. I really wish we had more time (and stomach space) to try more. But we already had like 3 dinners planned that night lol so this was more like a "stop by and eat as much oysters as possible" situation. Honestly I'm pretty sure the other food here is just as good, based on what I saw on other tables. Definitely coming back next time I'm in Boston.

First time here. We got the lobster roll. And while, sure, the menu said the pricing was 'MP'…read more(meaning Market Price, or...based upon current market conditions)...and while, sure, we didn't ASK what the price would be, on that day, I still think it would have been nice if the waitstaff voluntarily offered up that detail. (I'm certain the staff are aware that many of their diners express shock, once the price is disclosed...) Many folks simply make an assumption or a guesstimate, as to the price, when they see 'MP' on a menu, and this is usually based upon their prior experiences, ordering such a menu item. So, for example, I was thinking the lobster roll might be in the $40-45 range. So imagine my utter shock, when we received the bill, to see a charge for $69?? I have never in my life had such an expensive lobster roll. Yes, it was delicious, and the housemade potato chips were also great. The slaw was also good (though it was a very tiny amount...I would have liked more). But boy, did that price shock me. I would normally never have voluntarily ordered a $69 lobster roll. It simply never would have occurred to me, that a place would ever charge that much....

Thickest, most seasoned, and most delicious Clam Chowder I've ever had. I wanted a second one but knew we had more on our tour to enjoy so I had to resist. In one of my photos attached, the spoon stands straight up in the mug! Incredible! The other food getting served around us looked great too. Definitely adding this to our "come back to" list when we visit Boston again.

Our plan was to sit outside at a table on their SIDEWALK area with my 10lb dog in her stroller, but the hostess said, with an attitude, no dogs allowed in the patio area. Patio area? You mean the sidewalk? Isn't the sidewalk a public area? We were confused. We tried to clarify because maybe he was confused? But no, he said no again. My mom was hungry so we opted to get a bowl of chowder to go and we put our name down at the restaurant next door who was UBER dog friendly and even gave my girl a dog bone when we checked in, and lots of pets. Anyways the clam chowder should be renamed to dill chowder because dang, why so much! And hardly any clam, mostly potatoes. Not a fan of the policy or the chowder, would not recommend

We walked in without reservations and they were fully booked for the night, but they do have bar seating and a couple of side tables where you can grab a quick bite from the full menu. The ambiance is a 10/10. The decor is insane in the best way. The red chandeliers are stunning, the bar setup is perfection, and the low lighting with the table centerpieces really ties everything together. Even the bathrooms were insanely beautiful which is crazy to say but it stood out. It's rare to find restrooms that are that clean and well-designed. The drinks were great. I can't remember the name of the cocktail I got, but it had red sugar on the rim and it perfectly matched the whole aesthetic of the restaurant. For food, I got the steak taco and the fish taco and both were delicious. We were just stopping by for a quick bite before heading to the movies , but I really wish we could have stayed for a full meal because everything was amazing.
