Bites of Boston Food Tours
About
Bites of Boston Food Tours runs guided walking food tours that pair tastings at locally owned restaurants with the history, architecture and culture of Boston neighborhoods. Founded in 2011, it calls itself Boston’s original food tour company. Tastings are generous and individually portioned, and most stops offer seated indoor dining. Routes include a downtown introduction to lobster rolls, clam chowder, baked beans and Boston cream pie, plus Chinatown and South End tours.
The company is a local, woman-owned small business, and tours run about two and a half to three and a half hours while covering less than a mile of walking. A South End happy hour stroll pairs each of four tastings with a drink, and new North End and Fort Point routes are being added in 2026. Corporate groups of 12 to 120 can book private three-hour outings with all food, drinks and gratuities included.
