  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for brunch
  • Great for creative cocktails
Located in the heart of South Boston, Lincoln is a classic American tavern that offers guests a welcoming combination of home-spun, American fare alongside a wide variety of rustic, wood-fire-grilled specialties.

Built with the intention of being a comfortable meeting spot for locals looking to share stories at the end of their long day, Lincoln draws inspiration from it’s surrounding, hard-working, and uniquely American neighborhood.

Revitalizing a nearly forgotten West Broadway space that at one time housed the area’s only department store, Lincoln feels nostalgic. It’s open-air, tiled-floor cafe, grande bar, and soaring, original tin ceilings remind us of a time when dining halls and supper clubs were a way of life.

    We went on a Sunday night without knowing there was a live music and wow was it way more loud than we anticipated/wanted it to be. Otherwise, the service was great and food was solid for a Southie bar!

    Seriously the best brunch I’ve ever had and it was only $15 for my meal. Makes me feel like I’m not in Boston.

    My friends and I had a nice time, we went on a Saturday night so it was very loud. The food also did take a while to come out but the food was good and we were satisfied.

    The food was really good especially for the restaurant week price. The acoustics is not great. It's hard to hear people sitting at your own table. Little dark so hard to see the menu .

    The burger was out of this world and the breakfast pizza pretty good too. I think the server is new, she brought me raw mushrooms for my burger. She was really really nice though.

    The Lincoln is truly a hidden gem. We had a wonderful dining experience with creative cocktails and a variety of appetizers. We were able to take advantage of the Boston Dine Out deal and the $1 oyster & shrimp offer. Then we ordered a Burrata pizza, Wagyu steak sliders, and the Ribeye steak. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious! Can’t wait to return for brunch. The staff did a great job. Cool atmosphere too. Highly recommend to everyone.
