11 Best American Restaurants in Brookline

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.“

“Friendly service and amazing food! My daughter had the grilled organic chicken sandwich and I had the mixed greens and arugula salad-- both were delicious. Our server was knowledgeable, and several other servers double checked on us and greeted us as they walked by. We will definitely be back.“

“Wonderful food and amazing service. We highly recommend the Washington Square Tavern. The best in the neighborhood!“

“Bangers and mash were fabulous at this, new to me, lovely, Irish pub!“

“Really wonderful experience here. All the food was delicious and came out fast, and the staff were so pleasant to chat with. The restaurant itself was clean and comfy inside, and there was outdoor seating too. Bathrooms also very well taken care of which is always a bonus.“

“I have no complaints this is one of the best places to have brunch I've ever been around MA. Staff are attentive for the most part. When it's busy, it's busy I haven't tried their dinner menu but am looking forward to sometime soon.“

“Amazing food and prices! Burger has a great grill flavor that I can’t get enough of! 🤤“

“Nice area, looks like some upgrades have been made to hallways and rooms at the hotel since my last visit. Downside is housekeeping. Forgot to clean the room on a day when it was requested. The old days of daily housekeeping seems to be gone unless requested. $40 a day to park, be aware.“

“Had an amazing experience at Punch Bowl! Our bartender, Leury, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and professional. The La Morra Morra cocktail was absolutely delicious and definitely one of the highlights of the night. Leury made great recommendations and made us feel welcome from start to finish. Great drinks, great service, and a great atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Had excellent food and service for a late lunch on Saturday. Staff were friendly and the environment was welcoming“

“Stayed in Brookline for the week and ended up here by happenstance my first night there. One of the best pubs I’ve ever been to and some of the best food I’ve had in a long time! A big shoutout to Greg’s mom for the beef stew🤌 Whether you’re there for a great pint, to catch a game, or just some good craic, Hamilton’s is the place to be. I’d fly back to Boston in a heartbeat just to eat here again.“
