Overview
With over 40 years of experience, we have developed a unique and popular casual dining and sports bar concept. The Boston's franchise concept offers what many restaurants don't - two experiences under one roof - a casual dining restaurant and a sport-themed bar. Boston's sports bars feature a sports themed atmosphere ... vibrant, upscale and fun with sports memorabilia, multiple flat-screen TV's and games in a contemporary energized setting. As sports trends change and grow, we are continuously updating the bars' atmosphere by highlighting popular new sports teams and displaying newly acquired sports memorabilia.
Boston's the Gourmet Pizza is much more than just a place for great pizza. By offering two concepts under one roof, Boston's offers an atmosphere that is great for catching a game on the TV, or accommodating the whole family or a team that's looking for a comfortable, relaxing place to have a drink and socialize after the game. Plus, Boston's stays open later than other restaurants -- offering our full menu until close. And great pizza is just the start of our menu ... in addition to our 18 gourmet pizzas, Boston's offers 11 gourmet pasta creations, slow-roasted baby-back ribs, chicken wings, burgers, entree salads and much more. Plus Boston's features one of the largest and most appealing kid's menus in the category... making us a natural destination for families at dinner and on weekends.
Expansion into new markets has necessitated a different approach to franchise development. In the United States, new store growth has primarily grown on a multi-unit basis. As a corporation, our focus is both on developing new restaurants and new operators, while also putting a strong focus on building same store sales and profitability for our existing operators. As potential new franchisees learn more about Boston's and about our support team, the care and expertise assembled become self evident.
We invite you to learn more about our successful and proven casual dining and sports bar concept.
