Boston is one of the best-known cities in New England, but there aren't too many signs of the royal territory for which our region is named. Leave it to Cornwall's to pay proper respect to the Brits. But being a stone's throw from Fenway Park, there's plenty of hometown spirit to be found in the Anglo ambience. A large wooden sign hangs in Cornwall's entryway welcoming those "merry souls... who think drinking is a pleasure." It wishes all "ladies and gents" reach "contentment long before capacity." Cornwall's has been a staple in Kenmore Square for decades. The Fenway faithful set and students alike enjoy the moment when they order from a selection of 80 bottled beers and 20 more from the tap, including hand-pumped, English-cask conditions ales, like Fuller's ESB and John Courage. If you're game, choose from one of the dozens of board games and work on beating your opponent while you work on your pint. The menu supplies grub like shepherd's pie, sure to warm you up on Boston's cold winter nights, but you can find lighter sandwiches and salads, all for under $12. But most come for the burgers, which will certainly tide you over if the game goes into extra innings.
