Blue Bottle Coffee Is Reopening Its Harvard Square Location

A Cambridge location of a San Francisco-based coffee roaster that appeared to shut down permanently last spring is opening back up.

According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Blue Bottle Coffee in Harvard Square is reopening, with a Crimson article stating that a flyer is up in the window of the Bow Street storefront saying that "We are training! Excited to welcome you back on October 31, 2021!" The Harvard Square location of the chain was removed from the company website around late May or early June of 2020, with its windows being papered over (the Crimson says that it officially closed on May 30); a check on its website now shows that the Cambridge outlet is back up and it says "temporarily closed."

Other locations of Blue Bottle Coffee can be found locally in Boston's Back Bay (2), Cambridge's Kendall Square, and Chestnut Hill.

The address for Blue Bottle Coffee in Harvard Square is 40 Bow Street, Cambridge, MA, 02138. The website for the company is at https://bluebottlecoffee.com/

[November 10 update: Based on its website, the Harvard Square location of Blue Bottle Coffee is now open.]
