Another Boston-area location of a chain of fondue restaurants has shut down, leaving only one outlet remaining in the region.
According to a source, The Melting Pot in Framingham is no longer in business, with the Framingham Source saying that the Route 9 dining spot has indeed closed its doors. A note on the chain's website says that "We regret to announce that The Melting Pot of Framingham has closed for business indefinitely as of Tuesday, February 18, 2020," while the Source article mentions that the restaurant's social media page says the closure was a "business decision based on the economics associated with this franchise location."
The Melting Pot had a location in the Park Square area of Boston, but that location closed in 2015; the sole outlet in the Greater Boston area can be found in Bedford, and that restaurant is still in operation based on the chain's website.
The address for the now-closed Melting Pot in Framingham was 92 Worcester Road (Route 9), Framingham, MA, 01702.

The Melting Pot in Boston Has Closed
The Boston location of a chain of fondue restaurants has closed its doors.
According to a post from the Boston Hospitality and Tourism Industry Blog, The Melting Pot in Park Square is no longer in business, with crews in the process of clearing out the space today. A check on the chain's website shows a note saying "We regret to announce that The Melting Pot of Boston has closed for business indefinitely as of March 23. While an excellent property, based on its business model, The Melting Pot believes its concept is better suited to an alternative location. Therefore, it has elected to terminate the lease for the Arlington Street site." The note mentions that locations in Bedford and Framingham remain open for business and that it hopes to open at a new location in Boston at some point.
The Melting Pot first opened at Park Plaza in 2008.
The address for this now-closed fondue restaurant in Boston was: The Melting Pot, 76 Arlington Street, Boston, MA, 02116. The website for the chain can be found at http://www.meltingpot.com/
