Granary Tavern

About

Granary Tavern is a 250-seat restaurant and gastropub at the end of Milk Street, overlooking the Rose F. Kennedy Greenway. Its kitchen follows Slow Food principles, with a locally focused menu built around fresh seafood and farmers market produce, healthy preparations and classic comfort dishes given unexpected touches. It serves lunch, dinner, after-work drinks and late-night snacks daily, along with brunch on Saturdays and Sundays.

The building, a former grain mill designed by Boston architect Charles Bulfinch and constructed in 1816, shapes the space. Designer Kelly (Glynn) Laurence blended its granite blocks, exposed brick and heavy wooden beams with contemporary touches across two floors and two bars. The main floor has leather banquettes, high-top tables and large handcrafted wood tables for groups, while the downstairs feels like a wine cellar, with granite foundation walls and an open kitchen.

What to Know
