Skipjack's in Natick Closes; Future of Restaurant Unknown

A small local chain of seafood restaurants has closed one of its locations in the MetroWest region, and it is uncertain whether it will reopen.

According to a poster on the Chowhound site, Skipjack's in Natick shut its doors and apparently is in the process of moving items out of the restaurant. A call placed to the dining spot indicates that the Natick Skipjack's is closed "for renovations," but when we asked if this meant Skipjack's would be reopening at some point in the future, we were told that this was not necessarily the case.

Skipjack's, which first opened more than 20 years ago, currently has three locations in the Boston area, including the Back Bay, Newton, and Foxborough. Their menus feature a variety of seafood items, including arctic char, catfish, bluefish, mahi mahi, rainbow trout, lobster, crab, and scallops.

As soon as we find out more information on Skipjack's in Natick (including whether they will reopen or not), we will post an update here.

Here is the address for the restaurant: Skipjack's, 1400 Worcester Road (Route 9), Natick, MA, 01760.
