7. Union Oyster House

FINANCIAL DISTRICT.   Established in 1826, this casual establishment is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in the US and consists of a dark, pub-like dining room, oyster bar, restaurant, and drink bar. John F. Kennedy had a favorite booth here while practicing law in his early days, and you can now reserve it for parties of five or six. The place is said to serve the best clam chowder in New England, along with fresh seafood and excellent Bloody Marys. Oysters are delicious, and diners may choose to sit in cozy booths and order from the menu or find a perch at the popular raw bar.   (© 10Best)

Savor a bit of Boston's culinary history along with your seafood at Union Oyster House, which opened in 1826 and claims to be America's oldest restaurant. Regulars have included Daniel Webster and President Kennedy. (from Southern Living)

I love Boston, and every time I want a bowl of N.E. clam chowder, this is the place I go. They also have excellent raw oysters (though a bit pricey). So far I haven't found a better place for the chowda!
