About Us

Shore Leave is our take on a tropical escape, inspired by Boston’s rich dining scene. Conceived by Traveler Street Hospitality—a collective of seasoned hospitality professionals including Chef Colin Lynch, Heather Kennaway Lynch, Jefferson Macklin, and Ryan Lotz.

Named for a sailor’s leisure time on dry land, Shore Leave is tucked just below street level, but with a design that makes you feel like you’ve stepped onto the deck of a ship, far from the everyday. The space invites you to hunker down, forget about the outside world, and simply relax with friends—sipping tropical cocktails, enjoying shareable bites, and savoring flavorful dishes that span from sushi to burgers.

From the playful decor to the music, lighting, and our attentive team, every detail is crafted to transport you. Seasonal events, late-night karaoke, drag shows, and special celebrations add layers of fun and excitement, making every visit an escape from the ordinary.

Shore Leave is more than a restaurant—it’s a space for memorable moments, spirited conversations, and everyday escapes, all infused with the warmth and creativity that defines Traveler Street Hospitality. Grab a drink, take a seat, and join us on an everyday vacation.
