Haley House Bakery Cafe Is Reopening in a New Location in Roxbury's Nubian Square Early Next Year

A nonprofit restaurant that suspended operations a few years ago is getting ready to return, and it will be in a brand new home.

According to its website along with an article from the Boston Business Journal, Haley House Bakery Cafe is planning to open back up in January of 2027, moving from its old home on Dade Street in Roxbury's Nubian Square to a nearby space on Washington Street. The new location will be larger than its previous space, being on the ground floor of a mixed-use development and being run by Kate Lord, who had previously been a general manager of Tatte Bakery & Cafe.

Haley House Bakery Cafe first opened in 2005, being known as a place to get healthy food items in a community-oriented space while offering opportunities to those who have limited employment options; it ceased operations in the early part of 2022, though the Dade Street space has continued to be used for training and education programs.

The address for the new location of Haley House Bakery Cafe is 2147 Washington Street, Roxbury, MA, 02119. Its web page is at https://haleyhouse.org/hhbc/

So, if you have a gift card -- and there are many floating around town -- please come in and use it. We'll be happy to refund remaining card balances upon request through our closing date.

INspire Cafe in Wakefield Is Closing

A community cafe in the northern suburbs of Boston that is known for being an inclusive workplace is shutting down.

According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, INspire Cafe is getting ready to close, with a Facebook post from the Main Street eatery saying the following:

With heavy hearts, we share that INspire cafe will be permanently closing its doors on Saturday, September 5 at 4pm....Unfortunately, the financial realities of operating the Cafe have become increasingly challenging. Rising food and operation costs, broader economic pressures, and and uncertainty surrounding federal funding have all contributed to growing financial pressures on the Cafe's mission-centered operations. The organization has worked tirelessly and explored multiple avenues to identify a sustainable path forward; however, it has reached a point where continued Cafe operations are no longer possible.

Since first opening early last year, INspire cafe has focused on helping bring about change by offering employment opportunities for people with diverse abilities.

Hi Southie — After nearly four incredible years, we've made the difficult decision to temporarily close the doors of Fresh Boston. This isn't the ending we hoped for.

We poured everything we had into this restaurant, and while this chapter is coming to an end, we are incredibly proud of what we built together.

The South Boston location of the business first opened in late 2022, joining its original location on Nantucket; both the Nantucket location and the newer Cambridge location at CambridgeSide will remain in operation.
