You can get entrees as well, including fish and chips, a fisherman’s stew, and shepherd’s pie with lamb. The items tried over the course of a couple of visits were very impressive for a brewery, with the beef barley soup having loads of barley and almost being a meal on its own.
WORLD’S END IN HINGHAM: WHERE DOWNEAST MAINE MEETS THE EMERALD NECKLACE—15 MILES FROM BOSTON
Rocky Neck is the “thumb” of the baseball glove, and it’s mostly separate from the rest of World’s End, not only geographically, but as just mentioned, in overall feel as well.

Last year, we ran with some specific dishes and dining/drinking spots, and this year is no different, with an ambitious random sampling given below.
FIRST LOOK: VILLAGE BAR & GRILL IN EVERETT
A few other Portuguese/Brazilian dishes include codfish cakes; littlenecks in white wine, garlic, and oil; a “village prego” sandwich that consists of a marinated Portuguese steak on a bulkie roll; tripe stew; grilled octopus; and pork with clams and fried potatoes.
FIRST LOOK: PUBLICO STREET BISTRO & GARDEN
It’s much different than the gaudy waterside spots several blocks to the north or the jam-packed eating and drinking establishments a few blocks to the south.
