Any hotels you recommend near kosher food? Any good breakfast/lunch restaurants? Dinner? Fun activities for a quick trip?

Most kosher food is in Brookline, near Harvard Street. There's a Courtyard by Marriott nearby that should be walkable to most places. As for activities, what ages are going, and when? The Duck Boat tours and Tea Party ship are both unique and fun.

Walking along the Charles and/or in the Boston Common can be very nice. The Public Garden has swan boats that you would enjoy. Lots of history if you're into that - check out the Freedom Trail. Walk around Harvard Square and Harvard Yard, Faneuil Hall, go to a Red Sox game, the aquarium and science museum are both great.

For restaurants there aren't too many choices - 1 pizza place, 1 Chinese, 1 Israeli style, so just to the place that has the kind of food you're in the mood for.

Just be aware it's not CY, though there are a few pareve choices on the menu.

One other update -- Cafe Eilat, the frum owned pizza place, is closing in a month. There's one other place to buy fresh pizza, Veggie Crust in Brookline (other branches are not under supervision).

We stay in the Seaport as it's right on the water, cute places to walk around, etc. My kids loved the Boston Children's Museum. We've also done the aquarium and the Boston Gardens.
(There's also a cute little playground, I believe it's down the block from the Children's Museum.)

Thanks! Do either of these places have tables so you can sit down and eat? Life’s a Bagel or Rosenfeld’s Bagel Co

Edited, because I didn't read carefully at first. I don't believe Rosenfeld's has any seating. It's about 20-30 minutes away from downtown Boston, and 10-15 from Brookline. IDK about Life's a Bagel, it's in Canton, more than 40 minutes away from Boston/Brookline.

For a more complete list of available restaurants, see both pages here (note - KVH and ORC are widely accepted): https://www.totallyjewishtrave......html

Bumping it up for more updates info

Most of the shuls are in Brookline. Some of the major ones are Young Israel, Rabbi Halpern, the Bostoner Rebbe, and the Kollel. Most restaurants are on or near Harvard Street, which is also where Young Israel is.

Bumping this, thinking of going for chol hamoed sukkos. Is there a place with a sukkah we’d be able to use? Will any of the eateries have a sukkah?
