The owners of bagel store with locations in Lexington and Woburn have been linked to the former Porcini’s restaurant location on School Street.
A post on Boston Restaurant Talk reports that the owners of Wicked Bagel will be opening a restaurant in Watertown, and it is said to be in the space that had been the Italian restaurant for more than two decades.
Wicked Bagel has a variety of bagel sandwiches, coffee and other drinks on the menu on its website. According to Boston Restaurant Talk, the Watertown location would serve brunch, would have a liquor license, and would use the back patio.
Porcini’s announced it was closing in January after 23 years in business.
Thank goodness a SMALL BUSINESS is actually going into this site instead of another huge building or biolab! This type of business will serve the community well and, hopefully, employ some local people.
And local bagels…yum yum yum.
We have a comment about missing Porcini’s and a vote for a restaurant serving dinner.

Parking is going to be an issue.
There’s limited parking.
Does anyone know when they will be opening? We are Watertown residents and would like to visit the store on their opening day!
I don’t know the exact date but last I heard they were hoping to open in May.
