Pomona Cafe & Wine Bar Plans to Open in the Former Simpli Bar & Bites Space in Jamaica Plain


A few months ago, it was reported that a pair of cafes known for their coffee and cocktails might be opening a third location, and now we have learned that another new outlet appears to be in the works as well.

According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Pomona Cafe & Wine Bar is planning to open in Jamaica Plain, moving into the former Simpli Bar & Bites space on Washington Street in the Forest Hills area of JP. This could either be its third or fourth location depending on the status of the proposed East Boston outlet, while others can be found in Swampscott and Winthrop. (Based on those locations, the new spot may offer such options as salad bowls, grain bowls, breakfast dishes, coffee, juices, smoothies, coffee, and alcohol.)

The address for the upcoming location of Pomona Cafe & Wine Bar in Forest Hill is 3840 Washington Street, Jamaica Plain, MA, 02131. The website for the two existing locations is at https://antiquepomona.com/
