The Union Chowder House Martinis, Weymouth

Though hopping the pond is no small feat, you can get metaphorically closer to the Emerald Isle with a meal at Mollie Maguires Pub. This homey respite from the blustering Atlantic winds serves hearty Irish meals for every meal of the day, starting with the Irish breakfast with eggs, bacon, beans, and toast and ending with a hearty shepherd's pie or Guinness-marinated beef tips. If you'd rather dig into a plate with classic New England cooking or recipes plucked from the continent, peruse the menu for clam chowder, baked stuffed scrod, chicken marsala, or baked shells. Guests will also find kid-friendly pizzas and burgers, a people-pleasing move more effective than serving pasta shaped like Tom Brady’s silhouette.
