Busy Bee Restaurant & Diner in Brookline Has Closed

A neighborhood diner that has been around for nearly 60 years has shut down.

According to a Facebook post from Patrick Maguire who also posted to the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, the Busy Bee Restaurant & Diner in Brookline has closed its doors, with a note from the Beacon Street eatery saying the following:

After serving regulars, neighbors, families, students, workers, hospital staff, patients and their relatives, and after welcoming people from 'all walks' since 1967, our family has decided to close the Busy Bee. We own the condo where Busy Bee is located and are currently negotiating with a prospective new restaurant tenant.

It isn't yet known what kind of dining spot might replace the Busy Bee, so keep checking back for updates.

The address for the now-closed Busy Bee was 1046 Beacon Street, Brookline, MA, 02446.
