Cunard Tavern

Welcome to Cunard Tavern, East Boston's premier gastropub, where culinary excellence meets rich local heritage. At the heart of our establishment are two Boston natives: James Beard Award-winning Chef Tony Messina and Owner Phil Frattaroli, whose combined passions shape your exceptional dining experience. Opened in 2017 in Jeffries Point, Cunard Tavern stands on the site of Frattaroli’s grandfather’s former cabinet-making business. Our rooftop bar, "The Layover," offers tropical vibes and stunning skyline views. Honoring East Boston’s immigrant and shipbuilding history, our space features reclaimed materials and nautical elements. Join us at Cunard Tavern, where history, community, and great food come together.
