It looks like a local group of dining and drinking spots will be opening a new location in the southern suburbs of Boston.
According to its website, Tavern in the Square is planning to open in Braintree, and while an address isn't listed within the site, there is some chatter on social media that it will be moving into the former TGI Fridays space on Forbes Road across the street from South Shore Plaza. Once it opens, the new location will join others in North Station and South Station in Boston along with Burlington, Dedham, Littleton, Lowell, Shrewsbury, Tyngsborough, Weymouth, Woburn, and Wrentham.
The website for Tavern in the Square can be found at https://www.taverninthesquare.com/
[September 18 update: According to a source, Tavern in the Square in Braintree is now open, and it has indeed moved into the old TGI Fridays space on Forbes Road.]
