Melty in Dedham Has Closed

The sole Boston-area location of a small group of dining spots with roots out west has shut down.

Based on a check on the place this week, Melty in Dedham is no longer in business, with a message from @IrishEyesPhoto1 saying that it closed on March 8. A Facebook post from the Washington Street spot gives a bit more information, saying the following:

After much consideration, we've made the difficult decision to close Melty Dedham....Opening our doors in September 2024 was truly a dream come true. From day one, our goal was simple — to serve great food with warmth and create a place where people left feeling a little better than when they walked in. We are so proud of what we built with this community....Like many restaurants navigating a challenging environment, we faced hurdles that ultimately made it impossible to continue. This was not an easy decision, and we truly gave it everything we had....Thank you, Dedham, for welcoming us and supporting us. We are deeply grateful.

The Dedham location of Melty (whose company headquarters are in Utah) was known for its grilled cheese sandwiches along with its melts which included such options as pulled pork, bacon, corned beef, turkey, chicken, ham, ground beef, and more.

The address for the now-closed Melty in Dedham was 290 Washington Street, Dedham, MA, 02026. The website for the company is at https://www.lovemelty.com/
