Finagle a Bagel in Boston's Center Plaza Is Closing
It looks like another location of a local group of bagel shops is shutting down.
According to a licensing board page within the City of Boston website, Finagle a Bagel at Center Plaza in downtown Boston is planning to close in December, with the post saying that they have canceled their common victualler license. It appears that existing locations within MGH, in Boston's Back Bay, and the kiosk within the Kinko's building in Chestnut Hill remain open, though their website shows that their other Chestnut Hill shop is temporarily closed. Finagle a Bagel's products can also be found at various grocery stores in the region, including Roche Bros., Whole Foods, Shaw's, Market Basket, and others.
A number of Finagle a Bagel cafes have shuttered over the years, with locations in Boston's Financial District, Tremont Street by Boston Common, Brookline's Coolidge Corner, Burlington, Cambridge's Harvard Square, East Cambridge, Charlestown, Swampscott, Wayland, West Roxbury, and others all being out of business.
The address for this soon-to-close bagel shop in Boston is: Finagle a Bagel, 1 Center Plaza, Boston, MA, 02108. The website for the company can be found at http://www.finagleabagel.com/
[December 10 update: According to a post from the Boston Hospitality and Tourism Industry Blog, Finagle a Bagel at Center Plaza closes on Friday, December 18.]

A Florida-based group of bagel shops that features New York-style water bagels is on its way to the area.
According to a job post on the Craigslist site, Brooklyn Water Bagel Co. is going to be opening in Framingham, with more possibly on the way to the MetroWest area.

Currently, there are no Brooklyn Water Bagel locations in New England, with their handful of shops mostly being found in the Southeast.

Little Mary's Bagels Looking to Open in Arlington
It looks like a breakfast and lunch spot featuring bagels will be soon opening in Arlington.
According to the restaurant's website, Little Mary's Bagels is planning to open on Mass. Ave. across from Arlington High School sometime this fall (their Facebook page states that they are currently looking at a November opening). In addition to freshly baked bagels, Little Mary's will offer organic coffee, breakfast sandwiches, salads, deli-style sandwiches, and pastries. A blog entry within the Arlington Advocate mentions that Little Mary's will have seating for 18 people.
The address for this upcoming breakfast and lunch spot in Arlington will be: Little Mary's Bagels, 882B Massachusetts Avenue, Arlington, MA, 02476. Their website can be found at: http://littlemarysbagels.com/ and their Facebook page is at: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Arlington-MA/Little-Marys-Bagels/117126641673023
[December 1 update: According to posters on their Facebook page, it appears that construction has stopped on Little Mary's Bagels and that there is no longer a sign out front for the place. (A recent drive by the place has indeed confirmed this.) As soon as we find out if Little Mary's will indeed be opening in this space, we will post another update here.]
[May 31, 2011 update: It appears that Little Mary's Bagels will not be opening--at least not at 882B Massachusetts Avenue, where they had planned to open last fall--as a "For Rent" sign is now in the window of the space.]
