It looks like a cafe in Chelsea is opening a new location on the East Boston waterfront, moving into a space where a bakery-cafe had been for approximately three years.
According to a source, Aloe Natural Acai & Coffee Shop is planning to open in the former Seabiscuit space at the Boston Harbor Shipyard & Marina on Marginal Street, with an Instagram post from Caught in Eastie showing a photo of a "coming soon" sign for the place going up. This will be a second location of the place, with the original shop being found on Everett Avenue in Chelsea.
Seabiscuit first opened in the summer of 2021, shutting its doors in March of this year; it had previously been located in Somerville. (The East Boston space had also been home to KO Catering & Pies and before that, Scup's in the Harbour.)
The address for the new location of Aloe Natural Acai & Coffee Shop the Boston Harbor Shipyard & Marina is 256 Marginal Street (Building 16), East Boston, MA, 02128. The website for the business is at https://aloenaturalcafe.com/
[September 9 update: According to multiple sources, including a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, the new location of Aloe Natural Acai & Coffee Shop in East Boston is now open.]
