Really great experience at an East Nashville staple! The crab cake appetizer and lobster roll were divine. Great value for the money. We also got the British fish and chips and were not disappointed! Friendly service and a great patio. The ambience was great – you could hear the live music from drifters.

Ate at this restaurant for lunch and it was really good. My son wanted a lobster roll and luckily we found this place that serves them and even serves them the way he prefers, Connecticut style. He loved the lobster roll and was very happy with it. We also ordered mozzarella sticks as an appetizer and they were enjoyed. I ordered the clam strips entree and it was good although I do wish the portion size was a bit larger. It is a bit pricey but seafood inland, especially lobster, is going to be so I expected it. The parking situation is a bit pricey too as I did not find any free, public parking nearby but as an out-of-towner, maybe I just did not know where to look. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and if we were back in the area we would definitely go again.

“Where Boston Meets Nashville”

We celebrated our friend’s birthday at Boston Commons in East Nashville. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt lively yet comfortable.

The concept here is interesting: Boston Commons, formerly Batter’d & Fried, re-branded in 2019 to focus on refined New England-style seafood and pub fare with a Nashville twist.  Their tagline “Where Boston Meets Nashville” fits the vibe—classic seafood dishes served in a warm, unpretentious setting. 

For our celebration, we sampled a handful of their signature dishes: the bacon-wrapped scallops, shrimp & grits, lobster bisque, wedge salad, and Boston cream pie. Each dish was good and the Boston cream pie stood out among the dishes we tried. The cocktails were lively too, adding just the right amount of festive energy to our table.

Pros
• Signature dishes shine: lobster roll, bacon-wrapped scallops, fish & chips sampler.
• Celebratory atmosphere ideal for birthdays or group dinners—staff greeted us warmly and helped set the tone.
• Concept blends New England seafood tradition with Nashville warmth and hospitality.
• Indoor and outdoor seating with lively energy but comfortable enough for conversations.

Cons
• Can get busy, especially for celebrations—reservations recommended.
• Noise level rises during peak evening hours—might be a bit loud if you prefer quiet.
• Some of the fried seafood draws a pub-style crowd (so level of formality is casual).

Pro Tips:
• Don’t skip the lobster roll or bacon-wrapped scallops—they’re standout dishes.
• Opt for the fish & chips sampler if you and your group want to try a variety of seafood styles.
• If you prefer a slightly quieter experience, ask for a table on the patio or away from the main bar.
• Arrive early or reserve ahead for big groups to ensure seating and a smooth experience.

For a birthday night out where seafood classics meet Nashville charm, Boston Commons hits the mark—celebratory, full of flavor, and truly a place where great friends and good food come together.

I’ve been going to Boston Commons for about 2 years now, and the staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The food is also delicious and is made by hand. One of my favorite dishes is the Shrimp and Grits which everyone should try. You won’t regret it!! The appetizers are also a must-have such as the Crab Cakes and the Bacon Wrapped Sea Scallops which I had again there two nights ago. Thank you Charles and team! Yum Yum! See y’all soon!

We came in 30 minutes before closing and asked if it was too late for dinner. Charles gladly welcomed us in. Lindsay was a great server. Husband and I split the Fish and Chips sampler which was huge. We know good fish and chips and it was DELICIOUS! Son ordered Ragg’in Cajun pasta. They were out of chicken, so they offered shrimp as a sub. Amazing! Seasoned to perfection. We will definitely be returning to BC and it is well worth the 25 minute drive. This is a perfect example of eat local. Can’t wait to return to try the shrimp and grits per Charles’ suggestion.

We ate lunch at Boston Commons yesterday and loved it! Our waiter, Hayden, was attentive and the manager was so friendly and welcoming! We ordered the lobster roll, crab cake, and wedge salad. Everything was fresh, cooked to perfection, and tasted phenomenal. We dined outside because of the beautiful weather, and the outdoor dining area was well kept and extremely clean which I appreciated. Definitely adding Boston Commons to our go-to dining spot!

Made reservations for Valentine’s Day and got right in. Service was top notch! The manager was actively greeting customers, removing plates, and checking on tables. Our server was polite.

The bacon wrapped scallops are a MUST!! The salmon was so flavorful. Lobster Alfredo was a miss, but the lobster itself was nice size, so I did pick it out, lol. Clam strips were perfect! The chowder…soooo good!

Paid parking a short short walk away.

A fun spot that we will def come back to again!

I was afraid this was going to be a chain restaurant. Not at all. My lobster roll had big chunks of lobster with the bun perfectly drenched in butter. Yum! Loved the green chile grits and Brussels sprouts. Husband loved his fish and chips. Staff was friendly but not intrusive. Got to watch our St. Louis Cardinals on TV in Nashville.
