The Lexington Minuteman is reporting that the Vine Brook Tavern is going to be opening on Waltham Street, taking over the space where a location of the Buca di Beppo chain had been until closing down in January of this year. The article indicates that the two-story place will be a family-friendly dining spot with booths big enough for larger groups and a menu that focuses on classic American fare, including an extensive children's menu. The first floor of the Vine Brook Tavern will have a bar (with an array of wines and craft beers available), while the second floor will be the main dining area. The Minuteman also mentions that a "big name chef" from another restaurant will be in charge of the kitchen.
The Vine Brook Tavern could be open by the middle of October, according to the article.
[November 27 update: Grub Street Boston has confirmed what MouseChow told us a few days ago, that Vine Brook Tavern is now open for business. The owner of Vine Brook is Marcus Palmer (Market), while Chris Frothingham (Met Bar) is the executive chef.]
The address for this new restaurant in Lexington Center is: Vine Brook Tavern, 20 Waltham Street, Lexington, MA, 02421. Their website is at http://vinebrooktavern.com/
