Enjoy a spectacular view of the Fourth of July fireworks over Boston Harbor from a table at Woods Hill Pier 4.


Toast to the nation’s 250th birthday at Bubble Bath in Back Bay.

A Fourth of July celebration demands a cookout with all the works: burgers, hot dogs, barbecue, lemonade. But if you want to avoid all the cleanup from the party, or you don’t have the requisite backyard to throw one, check out these restaurants that are open and offering festive specials for the holiday.

Upham’s House of Pizza

Dorchester

This family-owned business has been dishing out pies for more than 40 years. They’ll be open on July Fourth serving hot slices to go and for dine in. Choose from a selection of more than 25 gourmet pizzas, including a sweet chili chicken, a cheeseburger-topped pizza and a sweet s’mores pie for dessert. Or you can mix and match toppings for a custom creation.

Batifol

Cambridge

If you’re not a night owl, consider heading to Batifol, a French brasserie in Cambridge, for their Fourth of July brunch buffet. They’ll have all the classics, from hot dogs and hamburgers to mac-and-cheese, grilled corn, coleslaw and tater tots. Plus, beignets, blueberry pie and brownies for dessert. The brunch is a $45-per-person flat fee. After you’ve eaten your fill, vibe out to the live DJ and play lawn games with your friends and family.

Woods Hill Pier 4

Seaport

If you want to hack the crowds and get ahead of the celebration, head to Woods Hill Pier 4 on July 2 for a front-row seat to the Boston Harbor fireworks. This farm-to-table menu gives you plenty of options: go upscale with caviar service and champagne to celebrate the country’s birthday or dig into a comforting bowl of homemade pasta. The blueberry buttermilk cheesecake is an especially festive touch for dessert.

Bubble Bath

Back Bay

Bubble Bath Boston only opened a year ago and it’s quickly become a hotspot for rooftop bottle popping and elegant bites overlooking Boston’s Back Bay. From here you may even be able to spot the fireworks over the Charles River from the comfort of an outdoor sofa instead of amid the crowds at the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular.

Saigon Seafood

Dorchester

Mix up tradition and head to Saigon Seafood this holiday for a Vietnamese feast. The extensive menu offers hot pot, fried rice and lobster steamed, stir-fried and sauced, among many other treats. Fresh smoothies in honeydew, passionfruit and pineapple add a little sweetness to the meal. They’re also offering catering on the Fourth to bring the party to you.
