About the Braintree Neighborhood

Who is best for this location

Families with young kids and teens. Travelers coming up from the south on I-95

Braintree is a Boston suburb that’s great for families to enjoy. It’s less than 40 minutes on the T to reach the heart of Boston and historical sights like the Boston Tea Party Ships. Kids like many of the activities right in Braintree, like Plaster Fun Time for pottery painting. Build-A-Bear Workshop and Dave & Buster’s are also fun places in the area. South Shore Plaza is a good place to spend a rainy day doing some shopping and seeing a movie.

Starting the day at Kristin’s Breakfast will leave everyone well-fueled for the day with Eggs Blackstone or a huge stack of pancakes. For a typical greasy spoon experience, stop in the Olympian Diner for breakfast or lunch. At dinner, Easy Pie is a casual, family-friendly spot for pizzas and subs.
