interesting that the 2022 photo on Google Street View has a "FOR SALE" sign on that building

(click here to see)

I wonder if they could not get buyer and just decided to reopen...

the sign now has LIQUOR LICENSE blacked out, as if that's already been sold off.

I forget to whom. They mentioned “applying” for one as part of the reopening, so I assume they’re going after one of the restricted ones. The Smoke Shop in Eastie managed to get one after they opened, so I assume more have somehow become available.

Either way, glad to have this spot back.

They probably want Dave Portnoy to visit so they can receive national attention.

I am going to have to try now.. they will prob deliver to me.

Some reason this area has a decent pizza drought (sorry I don't like santarpio's)

How about Ciao, Brown Jug, the pizza bagel at Katz and Johns Pizza?

You've never been to my house but I live like spitting distance from Johns and Katz.

After living here for almost 15 years, both are getting old :-)

Brown Jug is good when I'm at the mall. I never tried to have it delivered.

Ciao I order from occasion but it is not greek/italian pizza.
