Salem and Beverly Upper Crust Locations Closing

The Coolidge Corner pizzeria remains, while two of its sister sites close in Salem and Beverly.

The Upper Crust chain is shrinking a little, but its Coolidge Corner restaurant will remain where it is for now. 

On the chain's Facebook page, they confirmed that the two locations will close, directing customers to its other locations in Lexington, Newburyport, and Portsmouth, NH.

The Boston Restaurant Talk blog posted both the Salem and Beverly locations shuttered their doors, adding that the latter location had only opened in January of 2011.

A reason for the closure was not immediately available. The business was in operation as recently as last week, Salem Patch reported on Monday. The Upper Crust location in Salem has already closed.

The chain made news in June of 2011, when the company was ordered to pay $80K in back wages as well as liquidated damages for 11 employees after the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL) Wage and Hour Division found multiple violations in the handling of overtime pay and record keeping.
