Dorchester Brewing Company

Boston’s largest neighborhood tends to fly under the radar when it comes to tourism, but craft beer aficionados would be remiss to skip out on a trip to Dorchester Brewing Company. The open-air roof deck provides some of the area’s best skyline views, which conveniently pair perfectly with a fresh Forever OFD DIPA or thirst-quenching Noble Shifty Helles lager. Once you’ve worked up an appetite after a couple of brews, head right downstairs to M&M BBQ for a cornucopia of savory selections ranging from Pulled Pork Sandwiches to Baked Mac ‘n Cheese.
How to book: Via Tock

It’s a twofer: a brewery and a restaurant all in one place. From Dorchester Brewing Company’s taproom, you can order a spread of barbecue from M&M while sipping local beers inside on one of the two patios: the roof deck and the streetside deck. Just be strategic about your visit—the popular spot regularly reaches capacity.
