Kwench Juice Cafe to Open in Medford

 A chain of cafes that focus on juices and smoothies will soon be opening its third Boston-area location.

According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Kwench Juice Cafe is planning to open in Medford, moving into a space on Salem Street just west of where it intersects the Fellsway. Once it opens, the new outlet will join other locations in Boston's Financial District and Brockton, along with a handful of others across the country--and its "coming soon" section indicates that other locations may be on their way to Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, and Jamaica Plain as well.

The address for the upcoming Kwench Juice Cafe in Medford is 430 Salem Street, Medford, MA, 02155. The website for all locations can be found at https://kwenchjuicecafe.com/

Pressed Juicery Is Opening in Boston's Fenway Neighborhood

A California-based chain of cold-pressed juice shops will be further expanding into the local area, with a new one being planned for a busy Boston neighborhood.

According to a licensing board hearing page within the City of Boston website, Pressed Juicery is planning to open in the Fenway, moving into a space on Brookline Avenue just north of Boylston Street. If given approval to open, the new outlet will join three others in the Greater Boston area--in the Back Bay, Cambridge's Harvard Square, and Wellesley.

The Pressed chain started out approximately 10 years ago in Los Angeles, offering juices, cleanses, soft-serve, and more.

The address for the new Pressed Juicery in the Fenway is 148 Brookline Avenue, Boston, MA, 02215. The website for the chain is at https://pressed.com/

[February 11 update: Eater Boston says that Pressed Juicery is now open in the Fenway.]

Nourish Your Soul Is Opening Inside Lululemon Athletica in Boston's Back Bay

A few months ago, a trio of shops featuring fresh-pressed juices and more closed its original location but said it was also planning to open a new outlet. Now we have learned where that shop will be.

The Tables section of The Boston Globe states that Nourish Your Soul is going to be opening within the upcoming Lululemon Athletica in the Back Bay, with the 30-seat dining spot offering bowls, salads, smoothies and juices at the Newbury Street location. Once it opens, the new shop will join outlets in Beacon Hill and Winchester, which remain in operation while others in West Medford (the original location), the Healthworks gym in the Back Bay, and The Club by George Foreman III at the Channel Center in South Boston are no longer in operation.

If all goes as planned, the new location of Nourish Your Soul plans to open in November, with Eater Boston saying that the shop will open on November 1 (the Nourish Your Soul website also says November 1).

The address for Nourish Your Soul (and Lululemon Athletica) is 208 Newbury Street, Boston, MA, 02116. The website for the business can be found at https://nourishyoursoul.com/

[November 12 update: According to several social media posts from the place, Nourish Your Soul is now open within Lululemon Athletica on Newbury Street.]

Nourish Your Soul in West Medford Has Closed

by Marc Hurwitz

A trio of shops featuring fresh-pressed juices and more has dropped back down to two, as its original location has shut down.

A message sent from the business confirms what a source had said earlier, that Nourish Your Soul in West Medford has closed, though locations in Winchester and Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood remain in operation. The Playstead Road location first opened in June of 2012, offering cold-pressed juices, smoothies, milks, superfood shots, and coffee along with soups, salads, baked goods, bowls, and more.

A couple of other outlets of Nourish Your Soul had been inside Healthworks gym in the Back Bay and The Club by George Foreman III at the Channel Center in South Boston but those have since closed.

The address for this now-closed juice shop in West Medford was: Nourish Your Soul, 17 Playstead Road, West Medford, MA, 02155. The website for the other locations can be found at https://nourishyoursoul.com/

[May 9 update: A message sent from the business indicates that a new location of Nourish Your Soul will be on its way to the Boston area, though no specifics have been given as of yet.]
