The place
There's a lot to love about Nathaniel's in the summertime — like a deck that can accommodate up to 80 people. For the Fourth of July weekend, Nathaniel's made room outdoors for 50 more people by putting up a tent.
"Hands down, we get the best view of the fireworks," says Kelly Fiorini, 30, of Rochester, the pub's jack-of-all-trades.
