Last year it was reported that Boston's only Scottish restaurant was planning to open a second location, but now we have learned that this will be a move rather than an expansion.
According to a Facebook post from the business, The Haven in Jamaica Plain has closed its restaurant on Amory Street, saying the following:
It's the end of an era - and the beginning of a new one. ***We will open in the coming days (watch this space) at 284 Amory Street.*** As of [Wednesday, June 1], we CLOSE The Haven at 2 Perkins Street. Thank you for TWELVE YEARS of magic in that place. Can't wait to welcome you to our new spot very, very soon.
Back in April of 2021, we reported that The Haven was planning to open at the former Bella Luna/Milky Way space in the old Haffenreffer Brewery complex on Amory Street, and shortly after the announcement, it appeared that there could actually end up being two locations of The Haven if owner Jason Waddleton was able to get a new liquor license for the new spot.

[July 13 update: A Facebook post from the place indicates that The Haven is now open in its new home.]
