Chris and Jayden where very friendly, courteous, and fun on tour. I thought 3 hrs was a long time but it went by so fast! Great combo of knowledge and food.

Chris was an excellent tour guide! He created a very comfortable environment that didn’t feel rushed and allowed us to enjoy every stop of the tour (maybe too much at the artisan nuts shop!) Our group is all from Southie but we still learned so many new things about Boston history from Chris! Each stop was an enjoyable food treat that Chris intertwined fascinating pieces of history. Who would have thought that lobster used to be considered food for peasants!? Our rolls sure didn’t taste like peasant food! Haha. But honestly all the food was delicious and a great variety! By the end of it we were all so full. It was so nice to walk through the north end and enjoy the nice weather together. Overall would highly recommend, especially with Chris!

Excellent tour, great spots for food, little history on the side! Adam was great, knowledgeable, and patient!

My fiancée and I went on this tour with Chris and Jayden and it was absolutely wonderful! All of the food was so delicious and accompanied by a piece of history/story. Chris was so nice and never made us feel rushed to get to the next spot. We like to try different drinks so he recommended drinks at each place we stopped at for us to purchase separately. He made sure to include everyone in the group in discussion and even gave us recommendations on where to go after the tour ended. 10000% recommend this tour!

Tour could be better, our guide was knowledgeable and nice, however I feel that the tour was not serving the purpose of having a food tour: 1) being able to cut lines and sample on historic restaurants 2) listening to cultural/historical background of the food while enjoying the ambiance. We did bounce around several different restaurants cause either the space in the restaurant was not available or the food was not ready… one of the restaurants we returned about three times to receive boxes of meatballs to go. Which then later we moved to a different location from the restaurant to consume the food- which was a meatball. There were three meatballs in each box and we get to pass around the box to take out one meatball… additionally out of all the restaurants that we visited we only consumed food in only two places that the food was actually cooked, I’m not referring this as restaurants because one of them was in an indoor market. By any means this is not our guide’s fault, but poor coordination with the restaurant on securing seats and food. I understand that it was a busy evening, but if I were to stand in a line like everyone else, what’s even the point of booking a food tour…? Did you guys even make reservations with the restaurant..? This was rather a baffling experience. I feel bad to say this but unless they make some drastic improvements I would not recommend this tour to anyone.

We had an amazing time. Gabe is a wonderful guide and he really is very personal and knowledgeable. There was a nice variety of very tasty food!

Five stars to our tour guide Jayden. She was extremely knowledgeable, very enthusiastic and entertaining as well as caring. One of our family members has food allergy (allergic to shell fish) and Jayden made sure that she would get a replacement for the foods she was not able to eat. We would definitely highly recommend her and the tour itself. We loved that she sent us a list of all her favorite places regarding shopping, restaurants, night life etc.. Jayden is an exceptional tour guide !

This was a great tour. We spent some time around the public market and the North. Adam was a great guide with lots of interesting historical information. I would definitely take this tour again.

Elaun was very fun and energetic! I've been on a couple tours around Boston already and he was amazing and very entertaining!

We typically like to take a food tour on our 1st day in a new city. This tour ranks as one of the best we've taken. Gabriel (Gabe) Graetz is an exceptional host who combined a deep knowledge of the local food scene with entertaining insights of local history. The food was excellent, the cannoli was my personal favorite but every stop was yummy. Gabe was invested in not only making our time with him fun but also our whole stay in Boston with many great recommendations for places to eat and see. I highly recommend this food tour.
