Precinct 10

We are often asked, why no windows?! Well, a speakeasy, so called because of the practice of speaking quietly about such a place in public, or when inside it so as not to alert the police or neighbors, is an illicit establishment that sells alcoholic beverages. Such establishments came into prominence in the United States during the Prohibition era (1920-1933). During that time, the sale, manufacture, and transportation (bootlegging) of alcoholic beverages was illegal throughout the United States. Speakeasies largely disappeared after Prohibition was ended in 1933, and the term is now used to describe some retro style bars, like P10 for example, which aim to revive the feel and energy of days gone by and pay respect to a different time and place. There is something just so inherently American in the legend of speakeasies and Prohibition and so we set out to create a unique American restaurant here in Weymouth. Being around election season in late 2016, immediately we began to come up with names that revolved around American politics. Our address here at 110 Main Street falls inside of voting precinct 10. Hynes Restaurant Group founder and owner, Kevin Hynes, before delving into the world of restaurants, was a Weymouth police officer – and for 10 years. Many link the word precinct not only to politics but also to law and so the name rings true on both levels. In addition to those obvious connotations, Precinct 10 also marks the 10th restaurant opened and owned by Kevin (and the Hynes Restaurant Group) on the South Shore over the course of his career. P10s menu features regional American fare, a kind of greatest hits from around the country including house-made sausages, an array of house-smoked meats right out of our custom southern-style smoker, Southwest Tacos, Louisiana Paella, New England Haddock and a wide selection of foods that make American cuisine fun and tasty! tree
