Commonwealth in Cambridge's Kendall Square Is Going into Hibernation Due to the Pandemic

An upscale Cambridge restaurant is closing down for now, and it probably won't reopen until the coronavirus gets more under control.

According to a post within an ongoing series by Steve "Nookie" Postal in Eater Boston, Commonwealth in the Kendall Square section of the city is "going into hibernation" starting September 20, with Postal--who owns the dining spot--saying that "We are not in the best of times. Those are gone. So when it gets dark at 4:30 p.m. and it is 30 degrees with 40 mph winds whipping around Kendall and no one is working from their offices until 2021 at the earliest? Yeah, I’m all good with that." Assuming that Commonwealth remains closed until a therapeutic and/or vaccine hits the market, it is possible that the restaurant might not return until sometime in 2021, though Postal does indicate that his locations of Revival Cafe & Kitchen in Cambridge's Alewife area and Somerville's Davis Square will remain open, at least for now.

Commonwealth first opened in the fall of 2013, with the place including a restaurant and market while also offering catering and having space for functions and events. [Ed note: We have been told that all of it will be going into hibernation, including the market.]

The address for Commonwealth is 11 Broad Canal Way, Cambridge, MA, 02142 . Its website can be found at https://ift.tt/KDQRt5
