Here's a link to the full story. Sad to see them go. Harvard Crimson article

yeah,
they were fun to go to.

... it stinks that a lot of the businesses
that were in harvard square for decades
are leaving. that age old beer hall ( jacob wirth's ? )
and the tasty ...

not to mention the orsen wells movie theatre ---
i saw "hail mary" and there was a cloister of nuns
picketing the theatre ...

the face of harvard square has changed a lot over the past few years

Wow, I never saw this thread...thats a shame. I wonder if Calumet helped put them out of business?

drew


i dunno drew

sbi/hunts was down the road ...
calumet up the street,
cambridge camera in revere,
ep levines across the river ...

and there probably wasn't a good location nearby
so they could keep their current customer base.
the lady that used to run the portrait studio upstairs from
the tasty ( kob-antupit ) moved from harvard square
to outside of porter square 7 years ago and soon after
she cloesd-shop. i don't know if it was related ...
