Hangover foods at Time Out Market Boston

Kickstart your head with some serious caffeination from the coffee pros at George Howell Coffee. Quickly knocking back an espresso is sometimes all it takes to do the trick, but we recommend requesting an extra shot so it kicks in faster.

Few things will satisfy an aching head and twisted stomach more than a gut bustingly good burger, especially when it’s one of the best in town. Time Out Market Boston’s Craigie Burger means you won’t have to try to keep yourself upright while waiting in lines; order up a burger—add on a fried egg and bacon if it’s the first meal of the day—and go pop a couple of aspirin at your table while it gets cooked up. For the full recovery experience, throw in an order of chili cheese fries.

Fried food gets the refined treatment at Saltie Girl. Their sandwiches and rolls are sometimes all you'll need to get yourself back on track for the day. There’s the whitefish katsu sando with crunchy slaw, a buttery roll filled with crunchy fried clams, or you can always go with a classic order of fried fish and chips. Some fanciful types looking for a cure-all even opt a fresh lobster roll. Any of those will provide an aquatic cure to your hangover.

anoush'ella's heathful, savory wraps provide a good option once your night’s almost over, and an even better option when you're shaking off the cobwebs the following day. The only problem is choosing between the spiced chicken with hummus and tomatoes or the savory, overnight-braised beef with baba-ganoush and herbaceous zhouk.

Sometimes a hangover can only be cured with something rich and riddled with cheese, and that’s where the Cushmans’ Ms. Clucks Deluxe comes in. Their chicken, broccoli and cheddar gyoza offers a cheap and effective hangover cure. Regardless of how you're feeling, the crispy cheesy frico crust and spicy miso dipping sauce are hard to resist. If cheese isn’t your thing, there’s always the savory curry gyoza.

Mamaleh’s pastrami—to some, a bulletproof hangover cure—might just be the best in town. The reubens, made crispy in a sandwich press, is our go-to choice when we're struggling after a big night, but if you’re in the mood for something that more closely resembles breakfast, you can’t go wrong with a pastrami, egg and cheese sandwich with Russian dressing. If you’re still hungry, grab a bagel to go.

While getting something greasy is usually the first thing that comes to mind when you’re hurting from a night out, let’s be real: You should probably be eating your greens in order to feel better faster. Go by colour—you can’t really go wrong—to keep things simple and drink down a healthful juice made with greens, fruits and citrus. If you’re still resistant to that idea, knock back their "reset" booster shot and get back to us.
