Always a good source of local information.

I've enjoyed their branch operation at Seaport Park in the summer, since
that's 3 blocks  closer to my office on the waterfront. I don't think it's
open yet this year, not sure.

Other options in the Seaport side of the neighborhood -- access via the
ViaDuct elevated road heading north to Boston Seaport/World Trade Center,
pretty much straight opposite the main entrance to BCEC:

* Seaport Bar & Grill -- good sandwiches at lunch, with reasonable beer
choices.
* Cathay Corner (next to SB&G) -- passable chinese/oriental.
* NoName -- legendary seafood on Fish Pier itself, can't be beaten for
freshness, eat today's catch today -- good value at lunch, still less
overpriced than the others at night
* FreshCity (at World Trade East) -- sandwich/wrap with lots of vegatables;
funny whipped drinks
* 7-11 & Dunkin Donuts at Seaport/WTC

The Aura restaurant in Seaport Hotel is *not* a cheaper alternative, but
probably the swankest joint in the hood.

If someone needs Starbucks brand coffee only, there's a Starbucks at
ManuLife, on D-street by Seaport.

there.]
