Cunard Tavern

The space grounds its identity in East Boston's maritime and immigration history, commemorating the Cunard Wharf port of entry that once ranked second only to Ellis Island for arriving tradespeople and shipbuilders. In the dining room, meals run from brunch through evening service with dishes like tricolor hummus, Brussels salad with shrimp, and mushroom ravioli. Notably, appetizer portions can vary significantly, shifting from substantial spreads to modest two-piece plates in a casual setting within walking distance of Downeast.
