Northern Acre Food Tour
Introducing our new tour route!! This Northern Acre Food Tour Series is about the people, the journeys, and the cultures that continue to shape the Northern Acre today.
The Northern Acre is a unique extension of Lowell’s historic Acre neighborhood, located on its outer edge yet deeply rooted in its story. Shaped by generations of immigrants, from Irish and Greeks, Cambodian & Laos to Latin American communities, this area reflects the same rich cultural diversity that defines the Acre.
This separate tour route highlights the Northern Acre’s unique position on the outskirts while showcasing the restaurants and small businesses that carry on the Acre’s legacy. Here, you’ll experience the flavors and traditions that connect past to present, reminding us that even beyond the neighborhood’s center, its spirit remains strong.
