Ward Two
Buddy’s Diner, one of my favorite local spots to eat. Come early on a weekend morning, this tiny diner car fills up fast and only stays open through lunch! A really great old school friendly, local vibe!

East Somerville

East Somerville
Abandoned train cars on the tracks under I-93 between Community and Sullivan Stations on the Orange line.  You may recognize them from 'The Town'!  Bit of a creepy walk to get to them.

We stayed in Somerville because it was cheaper than staying in the city of Boston- which is where we needed to get to everyday. The trip to Boston was about 20 mins and very scenic! Somerville had many great restaurant choices.
