Friendly Toast, Boston, MA

The Friendly Toast is somewhere that is so funky fresh you come as a newbie and leave as a regular. The first restaurant opened in Portsmouth New Hampshire about 17 years ago with such success it only made sense to double the fun. The second location popped up in Cambridge, MA. The long lines and…

Sam Adams Brewery, Boston
