Coach grill is the perfect place for small private gatherings, group meals, corporate meetings, or rehearsal dinners, with chef-created menus to suit your needs. Throughout the restaurant, we can host private and semi-private parties of 10 to boisterous gatherings of 225 guests. Coach Grill has been dedicated to providing outstanding, five-star service and fine meals suited to each guest's individual interests since the 1930s. Coach Grill is part of the long-standing Wayland neighborhood and rests on the original site of the Red Coach Grill, a popular local hangout until it was destroyed by fire in the late 1970s. The Red Coach Grill was rebuilt decades later, and people returned as if reuniting with an old friend. This cherished New England institution, now known as Coach Grill as part of the Tavistock Restaurant Collection family of concepts, still serves the same elegant hospitality and exceptional cuisine as its ancestor, lighted by the warmth of its original stone hearth fireplace. It has been our joy to politely serve the New England comforts both appreciated by locals and admired by visitors for decades and years to come, as we are rooted in the Massachusetts community. “Best west suburban steak house. No question. Excellent steaks, fresh oysters, lively bar with bartenders who by themselves are worth the trip. Nice people” -Michael D. “I've been here several times and have never been disappointed. Food is excellent, service is exceptional. You will love your experience here... we did! It was all so good. Highly recommended!” -Haneen Y.

We can collaborate with you to design a menu based on the Biltmore's trademark appetizers, entrees, sides, and desserts. Within the renowned walls of the Biltmore, there is something very distinctive and unique. As you travel the century-old wood floors to your private Biltmore party room, you are a part of history, from the original stamped tin ceilings to the beautiful wood paneling. You can almost imagine the big parties that have taken place throughout the decades to celebrate life, love of food, and good times. With these excellent places available for your perfect celebration, this local tradition continues today. The Biltmore, which opened in 1914, has a long history as a Newton favorite. It started out selling breakfast and ale to local industrial workers staying the night, and its four-lane bowling alley was a popular hangout for decades. The Biltmore was a secret speakeasy for the upper crust during prohibition, frequently hosting private events for dignitaries, politicians, and celebrities. The Biltmore underwent a stunning refurbishment a century after it first opened, restoring the ancient building's grandeur while providing a more pleasant atmosphere. Much of the original brick façade and interior have survived the test of time, as has the original wood flooring. We maintain the Biltmore's spirit alive today with American food and a rotating variety of local beers and handcrafted cocktails. Something exciting is always happening at the Biltmore. Our events give a traditional restaurant experience a new spin. Come in for Oyster Mondays, Karaoke Fridays, and a whole lot more. We also have a private dining room available, which is ideal for any special occasion. We are excited to share history with you!

In addition to being a National Historic Landmark, the Lyman Estate, also known as "the Vale," is considered to be one of the finest examples of a country estate built in the style of eighteenth-century English naturalistic design in the United States.

The Berkowitz family opened a fish market in Cambridge's Inman Square neighborhood in 1950, giving birth to the Legal Sea Foods brand. Customers were granted "Legal Stamps" (forerunners of S&H green stamps) with their purchases at a related family business adjacent to the market at the time, a grocery store called Legal Cash Market. The name "Legal" became linked with excellence and freshness throughout this time. The first Legal Sea Foods restaurant debuted in 1968, directly across from the fish market. The fish was simply grilled or cooked before being distributed on paper plates at communal picnic tables. The Company's commitment to quality standards, freshness, and the integrity of the entire pier-to-plate process remains unchanged today. By concentrating on people (our employees and guests) and excellence in everything we do, we continue to raise the bar and set the brand apart from the competition. So when we declare, "If it isn't fresh, it isn't Legal!" we're reaffirming a dedication that has kept the brand alive for more than 50 years.
