Last summer, it was reported that an Allston deli had closed after being in business for approximately five years, and now we have learned that a new dining spot is moving into the space--and the people involved with the place come from a couple of local restaurants.
According to a source, Sloane's is planning to open on N Harvard Street in the former Our Fathers space, with a licensing hearing page indicating that Mackenzie Dame of Lulu's in Allston is the manager listed. In addition, a Google search indicates that Sarah Hutson, who is the chef/owner of Stillwater in downtown Boston and is an alum of Lulu's, is behind the parent company (Fork & Knife, LLC). The notice mentions that the restaurant plans to have a deli counter while also including a dining area and a bar along with a seasonal outdoor patio.
Our Fathers, which first opened toward the end of 2017, was part of the Franklin Restaurant Group (Franklin Cafe, Citizen Public House and Oyster Bar, Tasty Burger).
The address for Sloane's is 197 N Harvard Street, Allston, MA, 02134.
[August 8 update: According to a source (Brad Searles), Sloane's is now open.]
