Somerville Cafe To Move Amid Dispute With Property Owner

SOMERVILLE, MA — After 15 years at 406 Washington Street, The Biscuit bakery and cafe has been forced to move amid a dispute with its property owner. According to a fundraising page for the spot, an "unreasonable" landlord "wants [the space] empty and fallow, like the majority of their other properties in the neighborhood."

The cafe is set to close Dec. 31. The owners have reportedly found a new location within walking distance from its current spot that is "unique" and "subterranean."

The fundraising campaign, which has a goal of $150,000, will go toward renovations at the new location. The Biscuit serves biscuits (of course), sandwiches, pizza, salads, soups, muffins and other bakery staples.
