A new dining spot is opening in the northwest suburbs of Boston, taking over the space where a pizza spot had been.
According to a poster within The Arlington List Facebook group page, Bok Bok Thai Chicken & Rice is opening in Arlington Heights, moving into the former Master Pies Artisan Pizza space on Mass. Ave. Master Pies was under the same ownership as the adjacent Ginger Exchange Express, and it appears that Bok Bok Thai Chicken & Rice is under the same ownership as well which would indicate that this may simply be a concept change, though we are still trying to confirm this.
Ginger Exchange Express and Master Pies Artisan Pizza first opened in the summer of 2021 in the space where Great Wok had once been; other locations of Ginger Exchange can be found in Boston's Mission Hill and in Watertown.
The address for Bok Bok Thai Chicken & Rice (and Ginger Exchange Express) is 1181 Massachusetts Avenue, Arlington, MA, 02476.
