Just around the corner from bustling Charles Street is a pleasant pub, one that's a closely guarded favorite of Beacon Hill's posh locals. With its dark wood and cozy furnishings, 75 Chestnut has worked to provide its neighbors with a comfortable place to spend the evening, be it watching the game or having a quiet dinner. "75", as it's called by regulars, has embraced its neighborhood, producing a monthly newsletter promoting not only itself but local happenings; special menus correspond with area events. There are two menus at 75, the "Neighborhood Menu" at the bar and the "Dining Room Menu" in, you guessed it, the dining room. For lunch, though, the dining room offers both menus. The bar's menu offers burgers and sandwiches, along with steamed mussels, all for a respectable price. The dining room's fare is more sophisticated and quite hearty: entrees include duck, lamb and seafood stew. One dinner option is the prix-fixe special, a three-course meal for one good price. Don't hesitate to try the seasonal fruit-infused vodka at the bar, another favorite of the locals.
