A couple of months ago, a restaurant famous for its steak tips joined up with a dining and drinking spot known in part for its "pour your own beer" concept, and now we have learned that the collaboration is over.
According to Facebook posts from both businesses, Floramo's is no longer involved with Bossmama Taproom & Kitchen in Wakefield, with a post from the former saying "Floramo's is no longer working in the kitchen at Bossmama....It wasn't the right atmosphere or concept for us....John and his kitchen staff and recipes are not available at that location," while the latter states that "We will not speak directly to the actions that abruptly ended this collaboration a few days ago, but will only re affirm that Bossmama's commitment to fostering a healthy work environment where our diverse staff are treated with respect and feel safe within our four walls is a non negotiable priority." Bossmama remains in operation in its Main Street space, while it is not known what plans Floramo's has at this point in time.
Floramo's Restaurant had first been in Chelsea, moving to spaces in Wakefield and Malden in 2022 after the Chelsea location closed due to redevelopment, though both the Wakefield and Malden restaurants shut down in 2024.
The address for Bossmama Taproom & Kitchen is 963 Main Street, Wakefield, MA, 01880.
