Waterford's Family Restaurant in Dedham Has Closed

A dining and drinking spot in the southwestern suburbs of Boston that offered a mix of Irish dishes and classic American fare has shut down.

According to a source, Waterford's Family Restaurant in Dedham is no longer in business, with the social media for the Bridge Street place mentioning this while also hinting that a new concept may be coming to the space, saying in a Facebook post that "We look forward to seeing you all when we reopen." Waterford's first opened in 2013, replacing the Irish Ale House; the restaurant's menu included such options as seafood soup, clam chowder, wings, tenders, fish sandwiches, burgers, nachos, chicken curry, fish and chips, tenderloin steak, and more.

The address for the now-closed Waterford's Family Restaurant was 2 Bridge Street, Dedham, MA, 02026.
