Early this month, it was reported that a decades-old suburban dive bar was up for sale and that its future was uncertain. Now we have learned that it will be returning.
According to Carolyn Stella, who is a member of the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, the Mt. Auburn Grill in Watertown is reopening, with a post within the You Know You're From Watertown If...... page showing that the "For Sale by Owner" sign is down and a new sign says that it plans to open back up on July 8. It isn't known if the bar now has a new owner or if it will remain under the same ownership, so keep checking back for updates.
As mentioned in an earlier article, the Mt. Auburn Grill first opened its doors back in 1978.
The address for the Mt. Auburn Grill in Watertown is 645 Mt. Auburn Street, Watertown, MA, 02472.
