Puritan & Company, led by Chef-owner Will Gilson, serves modern American cuisine, with particular emphasis on traditional New England fare, and not without occasional excursions into other ethnic ingredients and styles. Our mainstays are ingredients sourced from farms we know and locally to the extent possible, and always a sense of fun.

Our dining room is a casual and fun place to dine. We love to share our excitement about the food and wine we serve like we would in our own home. Guests and their friends should feel comfortable in our friendly and even familial environment as we make our food and guest the number one focus.

Our next door space, Puritan Oyster Bar, offers limited reservations via puritancambridge.com

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Will Gilson

From the OpenTable editors: Modern takes on old-school New England classics shine at Puritan & Company, thanks to James Beard Award-nominated chef Will Gilson. In a cozy, industrial-chic space made for lingering, Gilson serves up elegant, seafood-forward dishes like smoked bluefish pâté and lobster risotto. Don't miss the top-notch Sunday brunch, starring some of the city’s pastries from sibling spot Cafe Beatrice.

    What a perfect brunch spot! We sat in a sunny window in the bright, airy dining room and sampled the pastry basket, which was transcendent. The bottle of bubbly our group shared was bright, crisp, and celebratory. A wonderful place to take friends for a festive occasion!

    Loved the swordfish and Brussels sprouts. The lemon peppercorn ice cream was creamy yet refreshing, delicious.
