I live just outside of the city, and anytime my friends and I want to have a great time and delicious Italian food, we drive to the North End. There are so many great resteraunts, bakeries and little shops; it would be hard not to have a great time!

The North End is an awesome place. Unlike Back Bay and downtown Boston it has a very european feel to it. There are TONS of restaurants so you will not have to worry about where to eat. Make sure to check out Mike's pastries (famous with Bostonians for baked goods) There are some shops but I would not recommend it for shopping. Most of the ...

The North End is an excellent place to go. It has a very European feel to it with many of the residents being Itallian immigrants. The area it great to go to at night.

It is also a nice area to walk around at night.

The North End of Boston was clean, and non comercial. So if you're looking for a more low key place to go in Boston, this is the place to go. No homeless people and small businesses instead of big corporations which is nice. If I lived in Boston, I would want to live in this part of town.
