A breakfast and lunch spot in Milton is closing its doors.
According to a source, The Plate in East Milton Square is getting ready to shut down permanently, with a Facebook post from the place (which is located above the Fruit Center Marketplace) saying the following:
After twelve years of serving Milton and the surrounding communities, first at our original Central Ave location and for the past eight years above the Milton Fruit Center, the plate will be closing. While we hoped to extend our lease, fortune was simply not on our side. Our last day of service will be in spring 2024. Come help us bid a fond farewell to our home away from home. To the Milton community, your unwavering support has been the backbone of our success. We are truly grateful for the memories we’ve created together and the moments you’ve shared with us. Please come and help us close this chapter with love and nostalgia for our last few months of service. We hope to see familiar faces as we say goodbye.
In 2016, The Plate took over the space where Marketplace Cafe had been (and before that, A Lighter Fare); the dining spot has been known for such options as fried egg sandwiches, breakfast burritos, griddle cakes, nutella banana toast, BLTs, chicken sandwiches, and grilled cheese.
The address for The Plate is 10 Bassett Street, Milton, MA, 02186. Its website can be found at https://theplatekitchen.com/
[May 30 update: The Instagram page for the place indicates that The Plate is now closed.]
