About Boston Foodie Tours

Locally owned by a Boston native and culinary school graduate since 2011, Boston Foodie Tours (“BFT”) is a food adventures service that focuses on award-winning best eats, culinary education, and the city’s rich history. We partner with Best of Boston winners, James Beard Award winners, and food institutions in must-visit neighborhoods. “BFT” is a multiple TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence winner.

The North End Neighborhood Tour

Iconic pizza, Best of Boston Sandwich winner, freshly-made mozzarella, Old World Italian bread, Italian pastry, and a pasta finale that even Nonna would love. From best eats to history to crime to movies, this tour has it all!

Experience the vibrant and flavorful North End neighborhood on our guided food tour. As you join us, we’ll welcome you with a warm “Buongiorno”, or “Ciao” and, perhaps, an authentic Italian gesture to start the day.

Our first stop will be to one of three award-winning pizzerias, either a James Beard Award winner, or one of two Best of Boston winners, one of which has been recognized by TripAdvisor as the best pizza-maker in the country! You’ll get to indulge in the delicious flavors of these acclaimed eateries, setting the tone for the rest of the tour.

Next, we’ll take you to a hidden gem, a three-time Best of Boston Bread Bakery, and a salumeria and pasta shop featured on the Food Network’s “Best Thing That I Ever Ate”. You’ll sample the best-selling Italian bread, balsamic vinegars, and house-made mozzarella, and you’ll learn about the history behind these local establishments.

While it’s closed on Sundays, the remainder of the week, we’ll also stop at our favorite old-school coffee shop, where you can enjoy their famous house-made lemon slush during the warmer months, or a cup of the best espresso our guests say they’ve ever tasted. Before heading to our next destination, we’ll stop at a long line for the Best of Boston Sandwich, a mouth-watering Italian sub that will leave a lasting impression.

After a bit more sightseeing, including a quick stop at Paul Revere’s House, we’ll finish our tour at a small, family-owned restaurant that’s a favorite of locals and Hollywood alike. You’ll savor a delicious pasta course with one of Mama Connie’s famous meatballs, followed by complimentary house-made Limoncello, and a classic cannoli to round off the perfect North End experience.

Join us for an unforgettable culinary adventure in the heart of Boston’s historic North End!
