late night food?

[cos]

It's been a couple of years and I'm still mourning for Dolly's. Is there any late night food near Davis Square these days? (Things like Dunkin' Donuts and McDonald's do not count!)

Nothing that you could reach on the T after 12.

I almost flunked out of High School because of Dolly's. Lisa had to be one of the nicest people I've ever met. I never did find out why she had to close down, but they had immunity to the Somerville Blue Laws.

The last of the All-nighters are Buzzy's Roastbeef (Redline, Charles/MGH) and the South St. Diner and the Blue Diner-[closed for renovations, reopening soon as 'The New Blue'] both near South Station on the Redline.

There are also a few out of town diners that are 24hr for most of the week, like the Club Diner in Lowell.
Your only other options are the various Bickfords in the suburbs. Many of which have been forced to go non-smoking. Somerville forces everything to close at 12, with execption to the Winter Hill Bickford's which is open til 1am, -occasionally.

There are a few food stands that are located by Landsdown, like "The Sausage Guy". BUt you have to hunt for them.

On a sidenote:
Does anyone know what happened to Curious Liquids?
They had their building bought out from underneath them, across from the State House (near Park St.).
They promised to relocate, but its been over two years now.

I think they sold their recipes to a nearby bagel place, but I can't remember the name of the place.

I heard that Dolly's had to close because the property owner wanted to renew the lease at a higher rate that they couldn't afford. That could just be a rumor, but it's a plausible one.

"late night" is not exactly the same thing as "24 hour". Dolly's wasn't 24 hours, for example. And Waltham had, for a few years, a place called The Bagel Depot which was closed in the afternoon but open all night. Waltham generally doesn't have late night places because they restrict how many hours in a day a business can be open (except for the grandfathered Dunkin' Donuts), but Bagel Depot got around that by having their off hours in the middle of the day.

Yeah, the furniture from curious was moved to this basement of a cafe on Tremont across from Park Street. I can't remember the name, but they have wraps and sandwiches and bagels...might be the bagel plus cafe? Sadly, I'd never made it to curious before it closed down, and now the furniture sits lonely and chilly in an old basement. It would be a great spot to gather friends at though. Quiet and spacious!
