Eli Shapiro along with business partners Jay Town Eli Shapiro along with business partners Jay Town from New York and James Duhamel from Falmouth have leased the former Binga’s Stadium location where they plan to open a restaurant and cocktail bar called Free Street (@freestreetportland). Free Street looks forward to being a go to location for diners looking to grab a meal before or after events at the civic center, and to also be a destination for Portlanders and visitors regardless of their evening plans. Shapiro is a former Boston-based bartender who will be Free Street’s co-owner and general manager. The 17,000 square foot space is currently under renovation. The interior will be a blend of the former Binga’s Stadium layout plus wall murals by @maxerwin_illustration (shown here) and @art_byalexis, some new furnishings, taxidermy, rainbow colored epoxy floor designs, and sculpture to create a truly unique space. For a quick take on the vibe they’re aiming for read their recent instagram post (the one that shows the FS logo). The first floor will feature a bar and lounge with seating for 175+ people. Additionally Free Street will have a large basement performance space where Free Street plans to showcase local and national talent that focuses on original music. Chef Josh Carraha will be serving a menu of casual pub-style food, and Shapiro has plans for a draft cocktail program along with novel house-made ice cube. Both the cocktail and food menus are currently under development so stay tuned for more details. One drink sure to be on the menu is the Recess which is garnished with an ice cream sandwich. #portlandmaine #freestreet #cocktailbar #crossinsurancecenter
@bardcoffee is opening second Portland coffee shop @bardcoffee is opening second Portland coffee shop. It will be located in the first floor of the new Sun Life Insurance building currently under construction in the @portlandforeside development in the East End. The new Bard will have similar range of coffee and food offerings to their original café on Middle Street plus an expanded focus on tea. The space will feature a long bar, a takeout window, window-facing counter seating, tables and possibly a partitionable space for meetings or events. The construction plans for Bard 2.0 are still a little bit in flux but owner Bob Garver hopes to open have it open by mid-year in 2022. A growing number of restaurants and other food businesses have been opening east of India Street as new buildings have sprouted up in the area. Other new food businesses in the area are Helm, Navis Cafe, Speckled Ax, Evo X, the Bard Coffee food truck and Grippy Tannins. The list will expand quite a bit once the Portland Foreside food hall launches. #portlandmaine #mainecoffee #bardcoffeeportland #portlandforeside

Atsuko Fujimoto has leased 469 Stevens Ave where s Atsuko Fujimoto has leased 469 Stevens Ave where she plans to relocate @norimotobakery from South Portland. The new location is in the building formerly occupied by Simply Scandinavian Foods in Deering Center which is also home to Quality Shop, Rwanda Bean Coffee, Pat's Meat Market, The Honey Exchange, Elsmere, and other businesses. Fujimoto is looking forward to having more space for her growing business and to creating a work space uniquely tuned to her way of working and that provides room for her and a growing team to work. Fujimoto hopes to be fully moved in and open for business in time for the holidays. She'll be closing down her current location later this month (September 18-19 are the last takeout days) and then opening the new bakery as soon as the build out is complete. The new Norimoto will have a takeout window inspired by old tabako-ya corner tobacco kiosks in Japan. #portlandmaine #norimotobakery #deeringcenter #atsukofujimoto
