Not sure if you heard, but the Patriots are heading to the Super Bowl. On Feb. 5, Tom Brady and the Pats will take on the Atlanta Falcons in Houston, marking your last chance to stuff yourself full of game-day favorites like wings, nachos, burgers, and beer while watching this NFL season.

Restaurants and bars in the area are getting in on the festivities with Super Bowl-themed specials, takeout options, and food-laden parties. Here are eight options in and around Boston.

Coppersmith

Not sure whether you want to watch the game from a bar or your couch? Chef Jason Heard of Coppersmith in South Boston has you covered either way. Guests can order platters of barbecue classics for 8-10 people featuring brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and more to enjoy while watching one of the 12-foot projection televisions in the dining room, or take their feast to-go.
