Reasons to be Cheerful Is Opening in West Concord

A new dessert cafe and ice cream shop is going to be opening in West Concord, possibly as early as the end of this month.

According to The Boston Globe, a common victualer’s license has been awarded to Reasons to be Cheerful, allowing them to open in the Gatehouse building on Commonwealth Avenue. An earlier Concord Patch article mentioned that the new place will feature 28 ice cream flavors as well as frozen yogurt, pastries, crepes, and coffee.

The Globe article states that Reasons to be Cheerful is looking at a late June or early July opening. [June 28 update: According to a poster on the Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook page (and confirmed on the cafe's site), Reasons to Be Cheerful is now open.]

The address for this new dessert cafe in West Concord is: Reasons to Be Cheerful, 110 Commonwealth Avenue, West Concord, MA, 01742. The owner's blog can be found at: http://cheerfulmusings.com/
