Welcome to Fields Corner
Located along Dorchester Avenue in the
heart of Dorchester, Fields Corner is one of Boston's largest
business districts. Home to a diverse community of Vietnamese,
African-American, Caribbean, Irish and Latino businesses
and residents, the area is dynamic and lively, filled with
interesting shops and restaurants. It has the largest variety
of Asian restaurants, services and goods-including jade
jewelry, silk dresses, herbs and Vietnamese groceries-outside
of Chinatown. Enjoy a pint at one of the area's traditional
Irish pubs lining "Dot Ave," a delicious bowl
of Pho at any of the many Vietnamese restaurants and during
the summer, pick up fresh fruits and vegetables at the Fields
Corner Farmers' Market. When the sun goes down, have a few
laughs at a comedy night at a local bar, nibble on contemporary
cuisine at a trendy restaurant or have a late-night snack
at any of the countless pizza and sub shops.
All of the necessary service industries are located in the district:
attorneys, accountants, insurance agencies, travel agencies, tax advisors,
real estate brokers, automotive shops and hair stylists. The district also
has several banks, a post office, public library, community health center
and senior center. So walk, bike or follow the Ashmont branch of the Red Line
to the newly renovated Fields Corner T Station to run your errands, try
something new and have a good time.
