Longtime favorites like Boston Chops, Brownstone, and Fomu have all closed their doors, leaving some big gaps in our local food scene. Whether you’re a steak lover, a fan of classic neighborhood pubs, or a vegan ice cream devotee, chances are you’ve felt the impact. Rising costs, shifting ownership, and the lasting effects of the pandemic are all playing a role. It’s a tough time for restaurants, but also a moment for new ideas and flavors to move in. Which closures hit you hardest, and what do you hope to see pop up next in these iconic spaces? #Food #BostonEats #RestaurantClosures
