Dave and Buster's Is Opening at the Natick Mall

by Marc Hurwitz

A chain of restaurants and entertainment spots is planning to open a third location in the Greater Boston area, taking over part of the space occupied by a department store.

According to an article in Wicked Local, Dave & Buster's is looking to open in the Natick Mall, with the plan being to take over part of the space that is currently occupied by Sears. The post says that Sears is consolidating the store there, vacating the second floor area and occupying the ground floor only, and that Dave & Buster's and another unnamed tenant are expected to open in the upstairs space. The proposed eatery and entertainment place has more steps to take before opening (including a meeting with the town planning board), but if all goes well and it does open at the Natick Mall, the new Dave & Buster's would join others in Braintree and Woburn.

Dave & Buster's, which is based on Dallas, features mainly traditional American fare and comfort food, while featuring TVs for sports viewing, video game arcades, and more. The website for the chain can be found at http://www.daveandbusters.com/

[May 31, 2019 update: A press release states that Dave and Buster's officially opens at the Natick Mall on June 24.]
