Redbones To Reopen This Week After Fire

A small vent fire damaged the popular BBQ joint Tuesday morning.

SOMERVILLE, MA – A fire won't bring Redbones down. The popular Davis Square barbecue joint was damaged Tuesday morning when a small blaze broke out in a vent above a grease fryer. The fire was contained after about an hour and preliminary estimates indicated the damage would be limited.

That appears to be the case, as the restaurant is expected to reopen this week. According to a post on its Twitter page, Redbones is currently undergoing repairs and plans to reopen Friday at 5 p.m.

In the meantime, the Redbones team asks that customers call the catering office at 617-764-5291 if they need assistance.
