Vivi Bubble Tea Cafe to Open in Former Il Mondo Space in Boston's Back Bay/Fenway

A bubble tea chain with roots overseas is apparently planning to open a third Boston-area location, with this one taking over a location of a now-closed pizzeria.

According to a source (Geoff Wong), Vivi Bubble Tea Cafe is planning to open on Mass. Ave. near where the Back Bay and the Fenway meet, with the address indicating that it will move into the former Il Mondo Pizzeria space. (Il Mondo's shop in the Brigham Circle area of Boston remains in operation.) Once it opens, the new location of Vivi will join others in North Quincy and Brighton, and based on those outlets, expect to see such options as Korean chicken wings, Taiwanese BBQ sausages, and popcorn chicken in addition to a variety of bubble teas.

Vivi, which started out in Taiwan, opened its first shop in New York in 2007.

The address for the upcoming location of Vivi Bubble Tea Cafe in the Back Bay/Fenway area 182 Massachusetts Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115. The website for the chain can be found at https://ift.tt/334oz4f
