New Restaurant Opens in Country Mile Space in Watertown

Last week, it was reported that a Watertown restaurant featuring globally-inspired cuisine along with craft beer and cocktails had closed its doors. Now we have learned that a new concept has come to the space.

According to several sources, what appears to be a new Italian restaurant is now operating in the Country Mile space on Belmont Street, and it looks like the Country Mile name is apparently still being used for it, though it is possible that this is because a name changed has not yet been brought up before the town as of yet. Very little is known about the new spot, including a menu and who is involved, so stay tuned for updates.

Country Mile shut down this past Saturday after being in business for approximately a year; Vermont natives Matt and Nancy Sargent, who were behind the restaurant, have also run a series of "Phantom Dinner" underground dinner events along with a food truck and dining spot before coming to the Boston area to help with the opening of Brewer's Tap & Table in Waltham, then opening Country Mile.

The address for the new restaurant in the Country Mile space is  136 Belmont Street, Watertown, MA, 02472.
