A classic bistro in historic Salem.

George Harrington established the original Lyceum Bar & Grill in 1989 in an historic former lecture hall made famous by the likes of Thoreau, Hawthorne, Emerson, and Alexander Graham Bell.

Twenty years later, together with a new generation of partners and a new vision, another chapter of the Lyceum's storied past begins: a classic bistro in historic Salem serving Mediterranean-inspired favorites in a contemporary yet casual atmosphere.
