Bostonville Grille Closes Down In Lynnfield

Last Wednesday night, numerous individuals could be spotted parking at other businesses on Route 1 and making their way on foot to a packed Bostonville Grille to watch the Bruins wrap up their Stanley Cup playoff campaign.

Less than a week later, the scene was far different as the door stood wide open near lunchtime as workers moved around the place organizing dozens of liquor bottles, video games, and some fairly impressive looking sports memorabilia.

Among those working in the former restaurant, one man was under the impression that the business is going to move to a new location in North Andover.

Another woman who identified herself as a manager did not confirm whether this was the case, indicating only that there has been no formal announcement on whether the Grille will re-open elsewhere.

At Lynnfield Town Hall, the Assessor's Department indicated that the land Bostonville currently occupies has been purchased by the adjoining Kelly Nissan.

An inquiry with Bob Curtin, assistant to the town administration, found that a representative from Bostonville surrendered its liquor license on Monday, and that the sports bar had been a tenant on the parcel of land, not the owner.
