Marseille in Boston's South End Is Closing

A French restaurant in the South End of Boston is shutting down after being in business for a bit under two years.

According to a post within the South End Community Board Facebook group page, Marseille on Harrison Avenue in the SoWa part of the neighborhood is closing, with a couple of Instagram stories from the place saying that "[today] our Instagram account will close as we say goodbye to the restaurant" while directing customers to the nearby Petit Robert Bistro along with Batifol in Cambridge's Kendall Square and PRB Boulangerie in Kendall Square, Somerville, and at the Marseille site (it appears that the SoWa location will indeed remain open). Marseille first opened in the spring of 2023, taking over the space where Brasserie had been, and before that, Gaslight.

The address for Marseille is 560 Harrison Avenue, Boston, MA, 02118.
