October 19 at 5pm +25
Puritan Oyster Bar · Inman Square • $$$
Mondays just got a glow-up: $25 scores you a House Martini, half dozen oysters, and hot fries at this Cambridge oyster bar. A date-night steal that feels far fancier than the price tag.
October 17 (This weekend)
Rose Kennedy Greenway - Auntie Kay & Uncle Frank Chin Park · Chinatown
Skip the Chinatown parking scramble and shop it curbside instead. This seasonal Saturday market lines the Greenway with Chinese vegetables, fresh seafood, baked goods, and ready-to-eat bites from neighborhood vendors.
D Street / West Broadway • $$
Bardo's cranks out South Shore-style bar pizza with cracker-thin crusts and those crunchy, lacy cheese edges you chase around the plate. The Sweet Dreams pie piles on pepperoni, ricotta, and hot habanero honey for a sweet-heat finish that actually delivers.
Charlestown • $
One counter, four pizza personalities: Detroit, NY, Grandma, and a secret Chicago deep dish. Professor Pizza nails them all, with crusts so good they've earned a cult following.
South End • $
Blunch is a shoebox-sized South End counter where the BLTC with egg and warm chocolate chip cookies come with genuine old-school hospitality.
Powder House Square • $$
The wood-fired pies with blistered, pillowy crusts are the headline at this tiny Ball Square charmer, but the handmade pasta steals scenes. Order the Salsiccia with fennel sausage and Calabrian peppers.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
