Fodor's Expert Review Franklin Park (and Dutch Boy Burger)

This two-room bar and burger restaurant resides in a converted garage. Seasonal beers are on tap—including brews from Sixpoint and Smuttynose—and courtyard tables draw crowds in warm weather. On-site Dutch Boy Burger keeps slightly different hours, including brunch (try the hangover burger, topped with a fried egg and American cheese). On the second Monday of every month, follow the literary crowd to Franklin Park for their award-winning reading series, which often spotlights rising stars.
