North End Boston FOOD TOUR - Clam Chowder, Lobster Roll, Pizza & Cannolis | Boston, Massachusetts
In September of 2019, I flew to Boston for a special, top-secret project that I can’t wait to tell you about later. I would only be in town for 24 hours, so I hit the ground running after my secret project was done. I hit up the beautiful and historic North End neighborhood for an epic food tour! Come along with me as I enjoy some of Boston’s best clam chowder, lobster rolls, pizza, and cannolis!

I started at Quincy Market, a 2-story marketplace that opened in 1826 and takes up 27,000 square feet of space! I found someone to point me in the right direction to find a lobster roll. I tried a sample of some New England clam chowder, which I got from a friendly vendor. He even gave me two live lobsters to hold! He gave me a deal because I was filming!
I got a clam chowder in a bread bowl, and a lemonade. I went outside to eat. The lobster roll contained large chunks of lobster! I sampled a bit before I dug in. It also contained lettuce, mayo, and had bread crumbs on top. I can’t even put into words how amazing it was! The bun was buttery and fluffy and the mix with the mayo was fantastic. It was addictive but so filling!
Then I tacked the New England clam chowder, which was creamy and had big pieces of clam and potatoes! I couldn’t get enough of it. I loved mixing it with the bread bun, which was slowly falling apart on the inside. Whenever you have the option of having soup inside a bread bowl, you should take it. It elevates the soup to the next level!
My lemonade was very lemony. I really wanted a beer, but it was still amazing!
Every time I come to the northeast, the lobster always blows me away. Then, I went back to the bread bowl and broke off pieces and dipped them into the chowder. It was unreal and had my mouth watering!
After my meal, I was getting full, so I figured I had room for maybe one slice of pizza and one cannoli.
I continued exploring the North End on foot. This area contains Paul Revere’s House, Old North Church, and many other historical sites. It’s also known as Boston’s Little Italy and I could see lots of old buildings all around me. This place is heaven for history lovers!
Next, I headed to Regina’s Pizza, which was named America’s #1 pizzeria on TripAdvisor! I sampled an Oktoberfest beer before ordering a slice of sausage, pepper, and onion pizza. The pizza looked phenomenal! It was as big as my head! I also enjoyed a fruity, tasty, and hoppy IPA that tasted like peaches and nectarines.
The sausage had lots of Italian flavor and the dough was fluffy and crispy. The cheese was really nice as well! This pizza was out of this world! It was so filling, but I couldn’t forget my beer.
I headed back out. It had gotten cold out and I had gotten really full, but I was still looking forward to having a cannoli!
I arrived at Mike’s Pastry, which serves over 25 types of cannoli! It was super packed and the line was like a free-for-all! I got a Florentine cannoli and a pistachio cannoli. The Florentine had chocolate chips and lots of ricotta cream!
The pistachio cannoli was a monster! It was so decadent and I loved the creamy ricotta and the pistachios. There was so much cream inside! The cookie was nice and crunchy but not too hard.
The Florentine cannoli was so different from the first one. It was thicker and denser and contained caramel on top! This was my favorite of the two! I was so full by the end! I definitely overdid it with too much food!
I hope you enjoyed coming with me to Boston’s historic North End! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave me a comment. Also, please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Hey guys! I'm really sorry about the buzzing noise during the Regina's Pizza segment. I guess there was static interference going on while I was filming there, but I didn't hear it until I was editing yesterday. Unfortunately, there was no way for me to reduce or remove the buzzing sound and I didn't want to cut the footage because I wanted you guys to see their amazing pizza. Thanks for understanding and I hope you enjoyed the rest of the video!

Honestly you should of went to Paulie's in the North End For the Lobster Roll .
Thanks for doing the video... I actually grew up in the NE before gentrification. Went to St. Mary grade school just down from Regina... this was when the Mafia. Hung out there and did their nasties. Went to Mikes. and got cannoli 3 for a buck! My favorite has always been their Ricotta cheese pie. One last blast from the past: as a kid Quincy Market was wholesale butcher market catering to the food industry... no one went there... thanks for triggering the memories
My Mom is from Gloucester, Mass. & let me tell you.... their cannolis are so good they can stop your heart from beating. And their lobster rolls are simply just mind blowing. Manjare!
My home town, Boston!! Yay! New England’s clam chowder and lobster roll are the best 😋
YES The North End is Amazing!!!! I grew up in the North Shore and have gone there so many times! Can't beat it!
Memories! I visited the Quincy Market yeaarrs ago. What a good place. Massachusetts gaang!
We were there in Feb, that shop had sooo many styles of cannoli but since we have them in NY our main mission was Boston Cream pie every day!! Our favorite was from Modern Pastry
David, I enjoyed your video. Your natural way of enjoying the food was hilarious. Enjoyed the faces you made while consuming the food. Thank you for your videos.
So glad you got to visit Boston ❤️ please come again soon!
There's nothing like new england seafood! ❤

Thanx for sharing your experience! Here we come Boston all the way from Austin tx!

Let’s gooooo Red Sox!
I miss home!
I've had the chowder from that place a couple times, it's very good but I cant say it's the best I've had. Only because I've had chowder at literally prob thousands of different places living in Mass my whole life
Only visited the USA twice in my life - Miami at Christmas/New Year 2016/17 (my [Polish] g/f's daughter lives there); Boston, Salem, day trip to New York City and visiting friends in Connecticut in 2002. Thoroughly enjoyed Boston - as you say, lovely architecture and I walked the Freedom Trail from one end to the other. Then I thought I'd be a clever b*st**d, and when visiting a bookshop I said to the guy who served me, "You know, the worst thing we ever did was to give up the colonies". "Aye, yaw reet", he said, "Ah''m from Manchester" Jeez, some you win, some you lose! (BTW, also ate at Quincy Market). Cheers, Keith (Brit in Berlin).
As a proud New Englander... Lobster makes me happy.
Almost skipped the cannoli part of the video because I am not such a pastry fan but omg those looked inviting. What is the best time of year to be in Boston?
Saw your Boston video...are you still in Boston? If yes, would love to meet you as I am a huge fan!!!
Just recently ( 2024 ) a lobster restaurant in QUINCY MARKET was cited for using Langastinos in their Lobster Roll sandwiches. Nice, huh ?
mouth watering......
Mike's cannolis! Gotta appreciate someone that doesn't mind getting his hands dirty.
Boston Chowda is the best. They got a store out near me in N. Andover. They got the best soups, pot pies, and sandwiches. Ive been going there for over 20years....
Hello sir. Love from India

Try Durban Bunny Chow. Worth the travel.
Wow Boston so much delicious looking food I'm now really hungry for lobster roll and chowder in a bun great video David
Food tourism is funny. I live in Boston and I don’t think of a Lobster Roll as a Boston thing. I think of it as a Maine thing, although you can certainly get them in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island.
I’m from Boston and still haven’t tried mikes pastry... which is a shame because I’m obsessed with cannolis 😭
Hey David Hoffzilla...the thriller in Manila...I thought you was doing videos in Suriname?? Is that coming out soon? Be awesome to hear from you :)
Leones is so good in SOmerville
If you want something cold the ice cream is right there !!
We have excellent lobster rolls in Québec also, a visit in Canada in the future for you?
Delicious
CONOLIS Pistacios Yum yum YUMMY 😙💙⚘
Hey new subscriber Boston is my hometown 🥰👌🏻
That good eating 🍽
As soon as you said "Are we in a line here" I thought this guy has to be from Miami...went to your about page and was totally validated. I'm from Miami as well and going to Boston soon. Hope to go to all these places.

I'll be in boston in March. Where should I go for best pizza, pastries, and bar/ clubs.
Dude, if you didn't go to Ernesto's for their chicken Alfredo pizza, you don't know the north End. Me and my whole ironworking crew went there every day for lunch. One slice is a 1/4 of a pie. I could live on their pizza the rest of my life.
Hey D, just found your channel today. I was watching Polcari's Coffee. Then i found yours. \(^_^)/ you've got such pure joy in food. Loveee it! And you remind me of Polcari's Coffee present owner. Hope you will visit Indonesia soon! Cheers!
