Zephyr on the Charles goes big this 4th of July with two parties – one indoors and one out – from which to choose. For folks who forgot their sunscreen, there’ll be a scrumptious buffet of New England cuisine set up inside. Chef Robert Daugherty‘s carefully curated menu (included in its entirety below) is available from 4:30-10:00pm for $35 per person. For diners who prefer the great outdoors, there’s a separate Party on the River, which includes a barbecue-themed buffet, lawn games and music courtesy of DJ Adam 12. The al fresco festivities, which run from 4:00 to 10:00pm, are free though the outdoor buffet costs $25 per person. There’ll also be a la carte grab-and-go options for folks who find themselves strolling down Memorial Drive sans picnic basket. Give the hotel a ring at 617.492.1234 if you need more info.
