The Charles Tavern

The Charles is a modern New England tavern, coming soon. Rooted in place, memory, and everyday comfort. Designed as a true neighborhood gathering spot, it brings together rustic charm, warm hospitality, and chef-driven food that’s built on flavor, not fuss. Expect craveable classics, thoughtful drinks, and a richly layered space that feels familiar yet quietly surprising. We believe taverns should be joyful, spirited, and soulful, honoring the old ways while making room for something new. We’re not here to reinvent the tavern. We’re here to bring it home.

Located just outside Boston in Tim Cushman’s hometown, The Charles brings together a love of memory and craftsmanship. This is Chef Tim Cushman's love letter to Millis.
