Legal Sea Foods – Downtown Crossing
With us, you can celebrate a special occasion or host a corporate event. We personalize every meal item and finishing touch. In our semi-private lounge at Legal Crossing, we can accommodate 25 guests for a cocktail reception. A 75-person seated dinner and 80-person cocktail reception are possible with a partial buy-out. For larger parties, a full buy-out is offered for up to 125 people for seated events and 160 people for a cocktail reception. Legal Crossing's group dining offers excellent food, service, and convenience. For more information, please contact our special events manager. 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.

Yvonne's
Yvonne's redefines the Supper Club dining experience with an amazing seasonal menu and a beautifully constructed environment, making it the ideal place to hold your gathering for any occasion. We provide a variety of personalized choices, ranging from a small gathering to a fully exclusive event. The new Yvonne's area beneath the Library offers a very exclusive and intimate eating experience, as well as amusing pop cultural references that provide commentary on modern life. The Gallery has only seven tables, therefore bookings are exceedingly limited and only accessible by special request. The entry is hidden behind a secret bookcase in the back of the Library Lounge, hidden from Yvonne's raucous main floor. The Supper Club harkens back to a time when comfort and attention to detail took precedence above fashion. The area has a weathered backdrop and polished furnishings. Antique crystal chandeliers, tufted heather gray sofas, clean white linen-draped tables, and hand-clipped Calacatta marble floors. Locke- Ober's original Santo Domingo mahogany bar, meticulously hand-carved on-site by French woodworkers in 1886, is the focal point of the dining area. The Supper Club is a great place for seated group eating, business events, and birthday parties. Yvonne's lounge, which is adjacent to the dining room, similarly strips down a once-ornate room to its unpainted brick walls and tin ceiling coffers for informal business gatherings and joyous cocktail parties. Styled bookcases, fine dining tables, herringbone wood floors, a hand-cut mahogany bar, and Locke- Ober's original gilded fireplace are all found in the Library. Charmaine Olivia's edgy, ethereal representations of famous historical characters hang among the Library's multi-hued books, creating a vibrant depiction of Yvonne's polished, yet fiery personality. The Library is imposing and an excellent choice for any type of event.
Venezia
We are happy to set the stage for the most spectacular and memorable night of your life, from our white marble entrance and grand mahogany staircase to our wide outdoor terrace and elegant waterfront ballroom with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Boston Harbor.

The Hourly Oyster House
We would like to invite you to join us in hosting it. The Hourly Oyster House can accommodate groups of all sizes for cocktail parties, reunions, corporate recruiting events, and other gatherings, and can satisfy a variety of budgetary requirements. An inviting neighborhood outpost in the heart of Harvard Square, The Hourly Oyster House serves thoughtfully sourced and playful prepared seafood and oysters from New England and beyond. The bar offers an extensive selection of signature cocktails, beer and wine as well as a carefully curated selection of craft beers and wines. Dunster Street, which was originally known as Water Street in Colonial times because of its proximity to the old banks of the Charles River, was once the meeting point for the horse-drawn wagons, known as "Hourlies," that left Cambridge each day – on the hour – for Boston. Dunster Street is now a residential neighborhood. This line, which was founded in 1826, was one of the first high-frequency transportation routes in North America and was one of the first in the world. The construction of the Harvard Square subway station marked not only a significant development in transportation, but it also laid the groundwork for future connections, collaboration and innovation between Harvard Square and Boston, and ultimately, the rest of the world. The history of the structure at 15 Dunster Street is just as rich and complex. The exact footprint on which The Hourly stands is believed to be the location where the first Freeman's Oath was printed in 1639. It is also the site of the original Second Cambridge Savings Bank building, as well as Herrell's, which has been a Harvard Square institution for 27 years and is a Harvard Square institution. When it comes to the Hourly, it pays homage to the square's colorful heritage while while providing a contemporary atmosphere and experience.
