More and more movies and TV shows are being filmed around Massachusetts these days. But before we became the Hollywood of the East coast, our restaurants were already being featured all over national TV shows. Here’s 13 restaurants that were featured on national TV. I’ll include the episode (or the clip from the episode) when it’s available. Bon appetit!
