Need wifi? Need to pick up a good book? Need some eggs, toast and bacon at 14:00 because you were out too late last night? Never fear, Trident has it all. Nestled away on busy Newbury street, Trident is a cute little bookshop in the heart of Boston - down the street from Berklee College of Music and Boston University, a short walk away from the Prudential Center, and right by Hynes Convention Center.
Trident is more than just a great selection of books, however. They have a large restaurant inside with lots of room, a full bar, and a substantial menu that includes breakfast yummies served all day! They also have a free, strong wifi connection and tons of outlets, making it a great place to camp out with your laptop to work or study. Be warned though - you'll end up being there all day, eat way too much, and leave with at least 3 to 4 books!
