Newbury Street

Stylish shopping in historic brownstones

Trident Booksellers and Cafe

A mile-long stroll past stately brownstones, Newbury Street provides prime people watching and boutique shopping.

While familiar luxury brands dominate, there are some independent retailers that hold strong:

Pop in for a coffee at Trident Booksellers & Cafe, pick up vintage and consignment clothing at Reformation or Miss Mia, or live your Ghibli-Gundam dreams at Anime Zakka.

Food

Music-themed Emack & Bolio’s offers creative ice cream flavours like Beantown Buzz and Deep Purple Chip.

Stephanie’s On Newbury is a solid brunch spot offering American classics and tasty lobster rolls.
