[courtney o'keefe]

Daddy Jones Bar is looking to expand their seating area by adding a patio to the back of the property which faces Broadway. The Magoun Square eatery will stand before the Zoning Board of Appeals on June 4th to request permission to add the space, but will be holding a community meeting on Monday May 19th at 6:00pm to hear concerns from abutters.

A member of Somerville Local First and participant in this year's Taste of Somerville, the establishment and it's owner Dimitra Tsouranis-Murphy have made a positive impact on the community while running the much talked-about restaurant located at 525 Medford Street.

A flier states, "Daddy Jones Bar is proposing to put an outdoor patio at the rear of their property on Broadway. The patio will only be open until 9:30 PM. Please join us to find out more about the project, see a proposed layout, and meet your neighbors. Meet the owner, Dimitra Murphy, and voice any concerns and ask any questions you may have! Light snacks + refreshments will be provided."

Set to be in attendance is the owner of Daddy Jones Bar Dimitra Tsouranis-Murphy, Ward 5 Alderman Mark Niedergang and surrounding business owners.
