A small local chain of upscale restaurants is opening a new location southwest of Boston, and it will move into the space where a shrinking national chain of dining spots had once been.
According to a source, Burton's Grill is planning to open in Mansfield, taking over the former TGI Fridays space at Mansfield Crossing by the corner of School Street and Route 140. A check on the Mansfield Crossing website confirms this, showing a "coming soon" page for Burton's, which currently has locations locally in Burlington, Framingham, Hingham, Lynnfield, North Andover, Shrewsbury, and Westford.
The Mansfield location of TGI Fridays closed in early 2024, and only five remain in Massachusetts today--in Boston, Everett, Methuen, Millbury, and Stoughton.
The address for the upcoming location of Burton's Grill at Mansfield Crossing is 280 School Street, Mansfield, MA, 02048. The website for all locations of Burton's can be found at https://burtonsgrill.com/
