Christie's in Lynn Is Closing Today

A classic North Shore snack shack that has been in business for more than a century is shutting down for good.

The Daily Item is reporting that Christie's in Lynn closes its doors today, as owner George Dean has apparently decided to retire from the business. The article mentions that the Dean family posted an advertisement in Wednesday's edition of the paper saying they were indeed saying goodbye, adding that the Lynnway eatery had been "serving the public since 1903."

Christie's was a popular spot for beachgoers (Nahant Beach is across the street), offering such items as burgers, hot dogs, roast beef sandwiches, fried clams, fish sandwiches, milkshakes, and more over the years.

The address for Christie's is 17 Lynnway, Lynn, MA, 01902.
