Organizers have added a new Food Options page to the 2026 U.S. Go Congress website, now
available under the Venue & Housing menu, outlining a wide range of dining choices for attendees.
Unlike past years, there will be no pre-paid, campus-style meal plans. Instead, participants can take advantage of numerous options both at the host hotel and throughout the surrounding Newton area.
Dining at the Boston Marriott Newton includes several convenient on-site choices. A Starbucks lobby kiosk offers coffee, tea, and light breakfast fare, while the Riverbend Bar and Grille features American cuisine with views of the Charles River, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The Riverbend Lounge provides a more casual, pub-style setting with shareable plates and drinks. Grab-and-go and in-room dining options are also available for added flexibility.
Beyond the hotel, attendees will find a broad selection of nearby restaurants, from quick bites to sit-down dining. Organizers have compiled a list of highly rated local options—including Ward 4, Knotty Pine, Bruegger's Bagels, Breadsong Bakery, Papa Razzi Trattoria, Mida, and The Capital Grille—accessible via the website.
With options ranging from casual cafés to full-service restaurants, attendees will have no shortage of choices throughout the 2026 U.S. Go Congress, which runs July 25-August 1.
