Chilacates Is Opening in Boston's West End

A growing local group of Mexican restaurants is opening yet another new location, and this one will be its closest to downtown Boston.

According to a source, Chilacates is planning to open in the city's West End, with a photo sent indicating that it will be moving into the former Viva Burrito space on Staniford Street. Once it opens, the new outlet will join other locations in Jamaica Plain (two), the South End, Mission Hill, Roslindale, South Boston, Brighton, Brookline's Coolidge Corner, and Chestnut Hill, and it looks like one other could be coming to East Cambridge as well.

The address for the new location of Chilacates in the West End is 66 Staniford Street, Boston, MA, 02114. The website for all locations can be found at https://chilacatesmx.com/

[July 25 update: According to an Instagram post from the place, the new Chilacates in the West End is now open.]
