The Bull Run Restaurant,

Rt. 2A, Shirley, (978) 425-4311.

For casual fine dining in a historic setting, the Bull Run Restaurant is the place to go. The old tavern was built originally as the Stagecoach Inn 257 years ago, and the past lingers in the clapboard design, wooden walls and floors, antique tables, many entrees, and cordial service. Menu choices are fairly basic but executed with flair and perfection.

Full review.
