Located at the Clarendon Building (the site of the former Back Bay Post Office Annex), Post 390 is the latest concept from renowned restaurateur Kenneth Himmel who also owns and operates Grill 23 & Bar and Harvest restaurant in Cambridge. This urban tavern, perfectly situated between the South End and Back Bay, features two floors with exhibition kitchens, three fireplaces, two bars and dramatic city views. A massive wrought iron staircase connects the energy of the first floor with the second where guests can enjoy the enormous exposed kitchen, wine display, two private dining rooms and additional fireside dining while looking out at landmarks like Copley Place, Trinity Church and the Hancock Tower.

Welcoming guests and neighbors alike, Post 390 gives you the delicious food and warm hospitality that diners crave in an urban tavern setting.
