Best of Boston

What can make a day of pickleball even better? Well, let’s see: How about pickleball and wood-fired pizza? Pickleball and personal training? Pickleball and party games? The buzz was palpable when this “pickledom" opened in the Natick Mall’s former Neiman Marcus space this past November, and so far, it’s lived up to the hype. While the ever-popular racket sport is the star of the show across 21 courts, this is more than just a sports club; it’s a destination for anyone who enjoys good food (in this case, from top chef Chris Coombs) and fun.
