The origin of Durgin-Park and it's typically Yankee recipes goes back to the pre-revolutionary days. In 1742 Peter Faneuil the topmost merchant in town, erected a large market house near the waterfront. Soon afterward, a warehouse was built which housed a small dining room that catered to market men, and the crews of ships anchored in Boston Harbor. Around 180 years ago, one of the customers, Eldridge Park, bought the restaurant with local merchants, John Durgin and John Chandler. Although both Mr. Durgin and Mr. Park died with in a few years of purchasing the restaurant, their partner retained their memory by naming it Durgin-Park. Mr. Chandler spent the next 63 years running Durgin-Park with his son and grandson, Jerry Chandler. When Jerry was killed in WWII, the restaurant was sold to James Hallett who put the poem "Just a Boy" on the back of the menu to honor Jerry and all the fallen soldiers of that war. It remains there to this day. James Hallett and his infamous staff of playfully short-tempered waitresses served the freshest fish, meats and produce one could find in Boston, not to mention the famous Boston Baked Beans. In 1976, he sold Durgin-Park to the Kelley/Solimondo family who toned down the waitresses to sassy, but continued the tradition of nothing but the freshest Yankee Fare that could be found in Boston.

At The Merchant, we make almost all our fare from scratch. Executive chef Matt Foley previously worked at both Craigie on Main in Cambridge and Sycamore in Newton. The Merchant is a big space that served for more than a century as a leather store. We've brought in high-top tables near the windows ... a 40-foot bar on one side of the room … and more formal dining spots on the opposite side. We have a semi-private dining room in back, and another dining room downstairs. For our menu, Chef Foley cures and smokes all the meat in house. Our burger is top-notch, as are other dishes like steak and eggs, sweetbread nuggets, and “rustic” desserts. The Merchant serves salads, sandwiches ($10-$12), and more for the lunch rush. And for dinner, we are a full-service brasserie (with most entrees ranging from $20-$24). The bar has 36 beers on tap, many of them locally brewed, plus a full selection of craft cocktails to serve our patrons, especially the after-work crowd. Our raw bar is open from 11 am till closing, part of a late-night menu that will change each night.
Boston is an enormously passionate city, spirited debate is practically our fifth major sport. While we may respectfully part ways on nearly everything, including that necktie of yours, public opinion is squarely behind the 21st Amendment. The 21st has elevated the "neighborhood pub" concept high above Beacon Hill by infusing our spin on traditional pub classics while carving out our own culinary history. When both locals and visitors are seen rubbing, okay, bending elbows in the same room, it's obvious that the quality of the food and the company has transcended party lines. Come spend some time with us at the 21st and see where Beacon Hill Meets!
