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.
