Banjo's: new sandwich shop at old KFC/Taco Bell site

[ron_newman]

After many months of unexplained delays, Banjo's finally opened yesterday in the old KFC/Taco Bell building at Mass. Ave. and Walden Street. It's a fast-food sandwich shop featuring roast beef, hamburgers, and deli sandwiches. I'd link to their website, but I can't find one.

I hope they have better luck here than they did in Weymouth and Brockton.

They were planning to be open 8a-10p Mon-Sat, 8a-8p Sun, according to http://groups.google.com/group/ncsc-meeting-notices/web/banjos-restaurant-info-2072-mass-ave .

That site also summarizes the various conditions Banjo's agreed to, as a result of the concerns of the NCSC, a neighborhood group. It looks like they're going out of their way to be a good neighbor.

Although the posted menu includes breakfast items that are to be served before 11 am, they are not yet open for breakfast. The sign outside says "OPEN for Lunch and Dinner", and has another word (presumably "Breakfast") covered over.

The NCSC letter references a William Martin as the manager. Apparently this is the same guy who owned the stores in Brockton and Weymouth. In Brockton, he didn't pay rent and the stores closed with no notice to the employees. Niiiice.
