The Essex (Restaurant and Rooftop Bar) Opens at the Cambria Hotel in South Boston

A new dining and drinking spot has come to a hotel in South Boston, and it includes a roofdeck.

According to its website along with an Instagram post from Caught in Southie, The Essex is now open at the Cambria Hotel, which is located by the intersection of W Broadway and Dorchester Avenue. The new place takes over the space where Six / West had previously been, and like that spot, The Essex has a 14th-floor rooftop bar with views of the city--and the bar opened late last week while the restaurant debuted earlier this spring.

The website for The Essex can be found at https://essexboston.com/
