SOUP’S ON

Jen Gallagher, owner of Beacon Hill’s Cobblestones eatery, is serving up a variety of great-tasting, feel-good soups this winter, and they’re available for delivery.

12/11/25 11:05 AM

AT COBBLESTONES, Beacon Hill’s go-to destination for sandwiches, smoothies, and other café-style items, owner Jen Gallagher knows hundreds of her customers by name.

Despite the constant bustle, she always finds a few minutes to chat. People talk about their health, their jobs, their children and grandchildren, their pets. She listens, smiles, compliments, reassures, remembers the smallest detail. It’s a daily ritual for locals, stopping to grab lunch and see Jen. Thanks to Gallagher’s recipes, personality, and hard work, Cobblestones has become a neighborhood fixture in just four years since it opened.

She’d always wanted to run a café and had years of experience running a catering company, but the right opportunity hadn’t presented itself to open a brick-and-mortar business. After two decades of raising her three children, she took a retail job on the Hill, and loved the vibrant, welcoming community she found there. One day, she walked past the space occupied by the former Café Bella Vita and glimpsed a vacancy sign. She felt fate nudging her

hard. Six months later, she opened Cobblestones.

“I realized that if I didn’t try to pursue this dream, I had already failed. If I tried and failed, at least I could say I tried,” says Gallagher. “I know how to hustle, and I’ve built something I’m proud of. It’s a place for the community to gather and have healthy, good food.”

Gallagher grew up in a large, close-knit Italian American family in Winchester, Massachusetts, for whom good food was a priority.

Her sons are currently serving in the military—the eldest is a staff sergeant in the Marines and the other is a Green Beret in the Army— while her twenty-year-old daughter is in college. Though she didn’t realize it then, the years she spent cooking and caring for them were rigorous training for the business she’s in now.

One of her favorite questions to ask people is: “What’s been the best part of your day so far?”

“You’d be surprised to hear the responses,” says Gallagher, “but for me, the answer is always the same: the people. I thrive on personal connections, and I love making someone’s day better, even in a small way.”

SOUP’S ON! Gallagher has launched a new range of soups just in time for the cold weather, and they’re the buzz

of Beacon Hill. They’re available in the store and can also be delivered directly to residents on demand or via a subscription through the Cobblestones website.

The ingredients are fresh and the flavors, according to customers, are outstanding.

“Everyone has a favorite,” says Gallagher. “White Bean Chicken Chili is incredibly popular, and of course Chicken Noodle is a bestseller. But honestly, people love them all.”

Gallagher’s staff cook the soups according to her own recipes. “They amaze me each day with the volume and consistency they produce,” she says. “It goes to show that when you put that much genuine care into your food, people can taste the difference.”

There are generally between eight to 10 soups on offer, including standbys such as Tomato, Clam Chowder, and Lentil. Split Pea has smoky ham chunks and a robust flavor. Butternut Bisque is creamy and delicate, full of the flavors of autumn.

Portuguese Kale is the latest addition, with leafy greens and a rich broth.

Staff from neighboring businesses stop in to get soups for lunch or takeaway for dinner, describing themselves as addicted or obsessed with a particular kind.

We agree with Joan Grady, frequent customer and owner of Beacon Hill interior design store J. Grady Home, who says, “We look forward to making every day a soup day!”

Number Five fabulous Back Bay older adults share their wisdom and insights about life, love and aging well.

FOR OUR FIRST COVER story of 2026, we brought together five extraordinary Bostonians, all of whom are in their 80s or close to it.

Spending time with our fabulous five made one thing clear: Living well as you age doesn’t necessarily mean slowing down. If you stay rooted in what matters, move your body, love the people close to you, and show up for life with purpose, you will be living your best life.

I’ve been a personal trainer in Back Bay and Beacon Hill for over a decade, and I’ve been lucky enough to have four of our cover models as clients. I’ve worked alongside them while they’ve experienced personal triumphs and setbacks, new chapters and all the everyday moments in between. They’ve taught me that aging well isn’t about chasing youth or turning back the clock. The best approach, according to them, is to stay engaged, keep busy, exercise your body, mind and your sense of humor, and remain curious about life.

Barbara and Peter Sidel

“We choose each other, every day.”

Peter Sidel plays the piano and shares a laugh with his wife, Barbara.

Photograph by Claire Vail

Barbara and Peter Sidel were high school sweethearts. She was 15 and he was 16 when they first connected. Their love song was “Moon River.” But they went separate ways after graduation and wouldn’t reconnect until decades later at a dinner party.

They hadn’t seen or talked with each other for nearly 40 years.

Several years later, Barbara’s husband passed away and by that time, Peter had divorced.

Peter asked Barbara out for a date. She accepted. They married a year later.

They are now rarely apart, usually holding hands and often hugging and kissing. They walk in the early hours of the morning for two to three miles. They eat healthy and toast each other with Pellegrino. They describe

themselves as “very lucky.”

A retired real estate lawyer, Peter has a calm, grounded presence. He fills his days with hobbies and practices that keep him well: early morning walks, learning the piano, exercising daily, and reflecting on the good things in his life. If you ask him what he loves most, he’ll tell you immediately—his wife, and the ability to give to others.

Barbara, who exudes warmth and elegance, has her own advice about living well. For her, material things never brought happiness. It’s health, family, and friends that matter. They are the things that keep her heart and outlook the brightest.

She keeps her body moving and her mind stretching, but she has also gifted herself permission to rest, set boundaries, and slow down when needed. And emotionally, she stays connected to the people she loves.

Jane Timken

“Kindness and generosity matter most.”

Just a few blocks away from Peter and Barbara in Back Bay, Jane Timken is living a life that proves reinvention is

always possible. Jane has been many things in her lifetime: a Byzantinist, a book publisher, a letterpress printer.

After turning 60, she became an artist.

Her life is a reminder that creativity doesn’t fade with age. Often, it deepens.

A native New Yorker who still

spends time there, Jane finds the intimacy of Back Bay refreshing. She loves the sense of community here.

The familiar faces, warm exchanges, a slower walking pace—these things have become a vital part of her wellbeing. She loves to laugh, learn, and stay curious. She continues to evolve, proving that purpose doesn’t retire.

When she’s feeling low, helping someone else immediately lifts her spirit. Jane works out three days a week building strength, balance and flexibility with online classes by Beacon Hill Village. She also takes long walks along the Commonwealth Mall, and says the natural beauty helps her stay clear and grounded. Her beloved 11-year-old standard poodle, Aria, is always by her side on her walks. Aria is close to her heart, a loyal companion who provides comfort and joy.

Annette Miller

“Show up every day, even when you don’t feel like it.”

Actress Annette Miller has a vitality that comes from decades of being on stage. Annette has performed on Broadway, off-Broadway, in Boston, in regional theaters, in films and on television. She spent 20 seasons as a leading actor at Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, Massachusetts, where she was a beloved presence both on and off the stage.

Annette believes in perseverance. Showing up—even when it’s hard, even when the audience is tough, even when life is demanding—has been her modus operandi, and it has resulted in a life filled with meaning. She brings the same approach to her family, which she says is the most important “role” she’s ever had.

Her wellness habits are grounded in movement and connection. She walks the streets of Back Bay often, letting its beauty energize her. Emotionally, she stays deeply connected to her husband, children, and grandchildren. And she continues to immerse herself in the theater and cultural world, both as an artist and an audience member. She is also active in the Jewish community, while cherishing the diversity that Boston brings into her life.

What Annette loves most about life is being part of it: engaging, thinking, questioning, solving, comforting. She says, “If I’m still here, there must be a reason. There must be something I have to do.”

Anne Swanson

“Back Bay is worthy of care and preservation, and so am I.” Anne Swanson, a retired book editor for Houghton Mifflin, has lived in and cared for her neighborhood for the past forty years. When Anne talks about Back Bay, she sounds like she’s describing a longtime friend.

She has written a book about the neighborhood’s history and is deeply involved with the Neighborhood Association of

Back Bay, a group that helps maintain its streets.

Anne stays healthy by exploring Boston on foot. Ours is a walker’s city, and Anne likes to wend her way through different neighborhoods, discovering new details, meeting new people. These walks nourish her physically, mentally, and spiritually.

She appreciates life’s sensual pleasures: good food, good wine, art, architecture, music, and literature. In winter, she is content to sit by the fire with mulled wine and Mozart.

Her community here is vast, and she has built hundreds of connections over decades of gatherings, conversations, and shared commitments to the neighborhood’s history and charm.

Anne’s favorite part of life is color. “The human eye can perceive a million different shades of color,” she says, and New England gives her a front row seat to nature’s changing palette. It is, as she puts it, one of life’s most affordable luxuries.

These five Bostonians have one thing in common: They show up for their lives.

They stay curious. They stay connected. They choose joy.

And they remind us that aging well isn’t something we hope for. It’s something we practice every day.

Stilisti Salon is in its 20th year on Newbury Street.

Its founder and owner, Marisa Marino, remains as committed to her staff and her principles as ever.

BY CLAIRE VAIL

BOSTON’S BACK BAY has more than two dozen hair salons, and Newbury Street is home to half of these, a bounty of brands that range from ultra-high end to humble.

As businesses go, hair salons are relatively straightforward to launch: You need a clean, inviting space; mirrors; chairs; and, of

course, talent. The competition is fierce, though, and clients can be fickle. Like restaurants, many salons shutter their doors within a few years of opening. But a few are lucky enough to grow roots.

Stilisti Salon has owned the top of Newbury Street for two decades, a testament to owner Marisa Marino’s dedication to her clients and staff.

“Our tagline from day one has been ‘luxury and style without the attitude.’ Back when I started, Newbury Street had a certain reputation. At the end of the day, I just wanted a beautiful place to work where I could treat people the way I would want to be treated,” she says. “Now you hear the term ‘quiet luxury’ all the time. That was our goal from the beginning. You don’t have to be loud and have a big ego to deliver high quality.”

At Marino’s spacious salon, clients receive plenty of personal attention. The vibe is professional, but warm, and stylists embrace long-term clients as they come in.

Staff turnover is low, especially for such a high-pressure industry.

INSPIRED BY A MENTOR Marino credits Lisa Eid, a fellow stylist she met early in her career, with inspiring her love of client service. She worked under Eid on Newbury Street as a junior stylist

after graduating Blaine hair school in 1991. Marino was awed by Eid’s easy rapport with people.

“She never met a stranger. The way she spoke to people, I thought she’d known them a decade. After they’d leave, she’d tell me, ‘That was a first timer.’”

Impressed by Marino’s ambition and talent, Eid advised her to enroll in the Vidal Sasson academy—the temple of precision haircutting—in Los Angeles for advanced training.

There, she honed her skills under Sasson’s strict geometric guidelines.

Marino graduated in 1992, and came back to Newbury Street, where she

continued to work alongside Eid, now on equal footing. In 2000, she began renting a chair at 10 Newbury and happily worked there for the next six years, building her client base and perfecting her craft.

An appreciation for quality seems to run in Marino’s blood.

“My mother was an accomplished seamstress. When we bought clothes, she’d examine the stitching and the fabric. You don’t have to buy Chanel, but you can look closely at items to see how they were made.

She taught us that by example.”

Marino is Portuguese by birth, and grew up in Angola, which was

a Portuguese colony for over 400 years until it gained independence in 1975. Multiple family connections in the United States paved the way for the Marinos’ family to emigrate, and they moved to Stoughton, Massachusetts, where Marino went to high school. Marino remains deeply connected to her Portuguese roots and returns to the Azores every summer for a month with her family.

THE LEAP TO OWNERSHIP In 2006, Marino felt it was time to make a move. “I asked my husband, ‘Do you want a stay-at-home-wife,

Stylists celebrate ten years’ service with custom necklaces to mark the occasion.

or a wife who owns a salon?’ And he said, ‘I don’t think I want you to stay at home,’” she recalls with a laugh.

“I never wanted to own a salon,” she continues, “but you find yourself in a position where you need to do it. I wanted to train a new generation of stylists. Also, I had personally received a lot of bad hair cuts. I didn’t want other people to have to have that experience.”

Marino found her current space on the fourth of July weekend in 2006 and opened in November the same year. She was determined to create a supportive business in which young stylists could get the training they needed. She even permits trainees to experiment on her own hair.

“I teach stylists to look for weight. Where does the weight fall—at the brow, cheek, jawline?

What do you leave behind so there’s movement? What’s the balance of shadow and light when you apply color?”

TAKING CARE OF HER TEAM Newbury Street rents have only become more expensive over the years, and boutique salons often struggle alongside established chains. According to Marino, 70 percent of stylists are independent contractors. Part of the reason for this, she says, is that big salons don’t always invest in training.

In contrast, Stylisti offers weekly trainings and sends stylists to hands-on classes and hair shows in New York, Milan, and similar locations. Marino offers her staff health insurance and retirement plans, and stylists who have been

with the salon for 10 years receive a custom necklace with a version of the salon’s logo.

“Making the maximum amount of money possible isn’t what inspires me,” says Marino. “I love the personal interaction. I love watching young stylists grow.

Watching them have a real career that allows them to buy homes and go on vacations, raise their families and educate their children. It’s not just about hair.”

Clean Cravings It’s the new year—another opportunity to make healthier food choices, but that doesn’t mean sacrificing taste. We’ve selected some of our favorite spots and dishes that will leave you full without weighing you down.

The Eggplant Hummus bowl at The Hummus Shop

BY KRYSTAL CLARKE

TRIDENT BOOKSELLERS & CAFÉ 338 Newbury St. You may know this long-standing cafe as a comfort breakfast joint for the college crowd, but Trident actually crushes the healthy lunch game. Think smoothies, protein shakes and real “I swear I’m turning my life around” salad bowls. The Vegan Cashew Chili is hearty without being heavy, packed with vegetables and warming spices that make you feel like you’re doing something right. And then there’s The Original Trident Bowl: roasted Brussels sprouts, sweet potato, chickpeas and beets. It’s basically a reset button in bowl form. Trident loves to throw out surprise soups, veggie bowls, and seasonal clean-eating moments, which feels like a friendly reminder to keep it clean.

MOTHER JUICE

The Original Trident Bowl packs a healthy punch of flavors.

291 Newbury St. Mother Juice is no longer just smoothies for people who “might start Pilates.” Sure, they’ve got juice detoxes, but the real magic is in the grab-and-go heroes that make you feel like you’re doing something

The Tasty roll at Douzo Sushi

right in the middle of your chaotic day. The Amazeballs are a gateway drug: tiny protein bombs that make you feel instantly smug—basically dessert doing its best impression of healthy food. The Health Bomb is a full wellness routine in a cup: oats, chia and flax soaked in coconut milk, topped with fruit, granola, hemp hearts and coconut flakes.

One bite and you’re like, “OK… maybe I do have my life together.”

And the hot oatmeals are warm, cozy and surprisingly filling.

THE PARAMOUNT 44 Charles St. The Paramount is that rare Beacon Hill spot where you can get a salad that doesn’t feel like punishment.

Finally, a Big Salad Elaine would approve of. It has been a Beacon Hill institution since 1937—your lunch spot has roots. And yes, the breakfast crowd is feral, but once the morning madness fades, the lunch crowd swoops in. There’s a reason that line never disappears.

The Quinoa Protein Salad, which features goat cheese, candied pecans and the glorious beetroot, all tossed in a white balsamic lemon vinaigrette, is the one to order. If you want me to switch from “I’ll have fries with that” to “I’ll have a side of ambition,” give me beets. And because it’s The Paramount, you never really know what you’ll find on the specials board: soups, bowls, little seasonal cameos. Blink and you’ve missed something good.

THE HUMMUS SHOP 37a Charles St. The Hummus Shop on Charles Street is one of those places you wander into thinking you’ll grab something quick and clean. It’s casual, bright, low-key adorable; the kind of spot where you convince yourself you’re eating healthy without giving up on life.

Then your eyes meet the Eggplant Hummus Bowl. Smoky, silky, wholesome and a little dangerous.

Creamy hummus, roasted eggplant, fresh herbs, crunchy veggies, warm grains, spicy schug (that’s hot sauce from Yemen) and garlic sauce. It’s the eggplant hug you didn’t know you needed. Wink, wink, nod, nod.

And those homemade spicy pickles?

They slap harder than they should.

Easy, ladies. You eat it and instantly feel like a well-traveled, cultured person who “just loves vegetables.”

DOUZO SUSHI 131 Dartmouth St. Sushi is the unofficial cuisine of people who want to “eat light” without sacrificing flavor or the opportunity to post something flaming. And this Back Bay sushi spot gets it. It’s sleek, polished, and will make you feel put-together for ordering something wrapped in nori, though I hate to break it to you: Your wellness path is not paved in rice. The beauty of sashimi is this: It’s protein and omega-3s, baby. Pair that with a plate of vegetables and clean carbs, and you’re fooling even the strictest of nutritionistas. Think tuna tataki, ceviche, veggie-packed stirfry (hold the sauce), and kushi yaki

A Health Bomb from Mother Juice

that make you feel virtuous. On a splurge day, the poke bowls and bento specials make a great grab-and-go without feeling heavy.

MY SU N DAY

Markus

LINDNER A native of Germany, Markus Lindner has lived and worked in London, Paris, and Geneva. These days, he enjoys spending Sundays in Back Bay and Beacon Hill with his wife and two young daughters.

BY MARKUS LINDNER

I’M AN EARLY RISER, so I’m usually the first one up in the family. I like to start the day mindfully—perhaps with a bit of yoga, or simply by diving into the Sunday newspapers. Once the house starts to stir, I prepare breakfast for everyone. My girls’ favorite dish is crêpes, so that’s what I typically make for gathering around the table.

Later in the morning, it’s time for

coffee with our dear regular guests and friends at the hotel. We sit together in the lobby, catching up and sharing stories—of recent travels, funny encounters, and life in general. For me, this is one of the most rewarding parts of working in hospitality: the sense of connection and community that grows over time.

If the Red Sox are playing, you’ll often find us at Fenway Park. I think I’ve finally begun to fully understand the game—and I love the electric atmosphere of the ballpark. My family and I never tire of cheering for the Sox. Now that the baseball season is over, we often take a stroll through Back Bay, along Newbury Street, and through the Prudential Center. Shopping isn’t

exactly my area of expertise, but I can rarely resist stopping at Topdrawer, where I’m always tempted by their beautifully designed accessories.

For a little indulgence, we usually end up at Eataly for some hot chocolate. My daughters insist that it’s the best in town. And for my own sweet tooth, I can’t help but stop by Läderach.

It always reminds me of our time in Switzerland, and, truth be told, I’m completely addicted to their chocolate.

Music is another passion of mine, and I’m a regular at the BSO and other classical concerts around Boston.

After being uplifted by the music, we return home for a cozy, home-cooked dinner—the perfect ending to a Sunday well spent.

Markus Lindner is the general manager of Back Bay’s Mandarin Oriental Hotel and a 20-year veteran of the hospitality industry.

We sat down with Laura Slade, owner of A Great Massage, LLC, to learn how massage can help athletes, desk jockeys, and others.

BY MYBOSTON STAFF How often should I get a massage?

It really depends on why you need a massage.

For general wellness, stress management and to check in with your body, once a month is a good guideline. If you have a particularly stressful job, twice a month can really help with stress management. If you have just started an exercise program, or are in an intense training program, once-a-week massages can promote faster recovery and keep you on track with your fitness goals.

What’s the best massage for people who sit all day?

A deep tissue massage is best for targeting chronic muscle tension in areas like the neck and shoulders.

It can be helpful to warm up the tight areas first by stretching the superficial fascia with tools like my warm, gently vibrating scraper, which I include as a free add on to any massage.

Can massage really help you recover after exercising?

Yes, massage can help with exercise recovery by increasing blood flow to muscles, which delivers oxygen and nutrients while helping to flush out metabolic waste. This process can help to speed up muscle fiber healing after intense workouts.

Something to keep in mind with marathon training season starting!

What is a common issue you see doing massage in Boston?

I definitely see tight calves and sore feet all the time. Boston is a walking city, and it’s also covered in cobblestones, especially around Back Bay. Trigger point therapy and stretching can help these muscles recover from all the walking Bostonians do and improve flexibility and range of motion in the foot and calf muscles.

What is your favorite treatment that you offer?

I love the Swedish massage with dry brushing and moisturizing body butter. I like it much better than a body scrub, which cost hundreds of dollars, takes an hour or more, and doesn’t include a massage at all!

With dry brushing and body butter added to your treatment, you still get a great massage, but you also get a full body skin treatment with a gentle, non-chemical exfoliation and moisturizer.
