Encore Boston Harbor is the city’s answer to the luxurious and indulgent casino resorts of Las Vegas, with all the glamour and spectacle you could wish for. The hotel bears a striking resemblance to sister property Wynn Las Vegas with its signature curved bronze building, world-class art collection and more flowers than you could imagine.
Many of the hotel’s 16 dining and lounge venues have a local connection, including Fratelli, a joint enterprise from Boston restaurateurs Frank DePasquale and Nick Varano, and Night Shift Brewing Kitchen & Tap, from an Everett-based brewery.
For many, the main attraction is the casino, and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s teeming with slots and table games. You’ll find all the whirs and dings of Vegas on the East Coast here.
Night Shift Brewing Kitchen & Tap pours an extensive list of locally crafted beers — there’s more than 20 on tap — and gives an elevated take on pub fare like an onion rings tower, crispy shrimp tacos and marinated steak tips.
Don’t miss a minute of the action at WynnBET Sportsbook, where more than 70 televisions, including a 10-foot-high and 123-foot-long video wall, keep you plugged in. Sit down at the full-service bar and enjoy cuisine from beloved burger spot Shake Shack or local favorite Frank & Nick’s, which specializes in North End staples such as meatball subs, eggplant and chicken Parmigiana and housemade roast beef panini.
At Cheese Meet Wine, pair charcuterie with global bottles. The eatery offers imported and domestic carved-to-order meats, fresh soft and hard cheeses, sandwiches and soups.
