Earlier this week I shared that the popular Chestnut Hill wine shop, The Urban Grape, was looking to open a second location in the South End in available space in the trendy, Bryant Residences at 303 Columbus Ave. Their petition was heard on Wednesday, April 25th.
On Thursday, April 26th, the city approved The Urban Grape’s request for a retail liquor license. Their new store in the South End is expected to open after Labor Day and be open 7-days a week.
Rumor has it a popular wine shop in Chestnut Hill will petition the city to open in available retail space in the South End’s, trendy Bryant Residences at 303 Columbus Avenue.
Of course this is subject to receiving approval from the licensing board and contingent upon support from the community and surrounding neighbors, but with the closest wine shops blocks away lets hope both the licensing board and neighborhood associations will welcome them.
When the Urban Grape South End would open is unclear since there are no signs of construction in the 2,200 square feet space.
