Website Directions 617-720-1152

Located in historic Beacon Hill, The Paramount is a long-standing Boston staple famous for its hearty breakfast, brunch, and classic dinner menu. Guests order cafeteria-style at the counter during morning and afternoon service before taking a seat, transitioning to full table service in the evening. From fluffy French toast and omelettes to burgers and comfort classics, it remains a bustling, neighborhood favorite.

Quick tip: Arrive early on weekend mornings to avoid the long line, or visit in the evening for a relaxed sit-down dinner.
