Chris Bolyard, owner of Bolyard’s Meat & Provisions (2810 Sutton Boulevard) said Wednesday that his shop will be moving into the larger, former Dubliner restaurant space, across the street at 2733 Sutton.
The Dubliner was a victim of the Covid 19 shutdown, closing its doors in April. Bolyard has started the demolition phase of the buildout.
Also, Nate Larson, owner of Living Room Coffee & Kitchen, next to Bolyard’s current spot, said he plans to take advantage of Bolyard’s move, beginning renovations to expand the café into the larger space as soon as it’s empty.
I gonna miss all the smells coming from the open windows
I remember the fabric store it really was great until the roof leaked on it
Back in the early 70’s, when I told people I lived in Maplewood, about half the time they would say something like this, “Oh Yes, Goldies. That’s where I (or my wife) shop for fabrics
Congratulations Chris! (and Nate)! This is most welcome news! And I’m glad to hear both of you businesses are doing well enough to expand. Good luck and I look forward to seeing you in your new locations (on a regular basis…with all my friends….and business acquaintances)
When I was a kid, the building that will be The Living Room is expanding into was a Bettendorfs grocery store. Later, One of the old junky start-ups for Pier 1 was there until finally an outlet fabric store was also in that same building…all over my growing up years in Maplewood since the early 1950s.
Geez I’m old. I remember that building as a grocery store when I was growing up, then a Mizerany’s.
Interesting. Seems appropriate since that building originally housed a Kroger store in the 1930s
