Downtown could get new coffee option; Allston could get new froyo to go

An Edgartown coffeehouse wants to branch out - to 33 Broad St. - while a local entrepreneur wants to broaden Allston's frozen-yogurt options with a new store at 66 Brighton Ave..

Thomas McManus, owner of Espresso Love on Martha's Vineyard, told the Boston Licensing Board that in addition to espresso and other coffee varieties, he would also serve sandwiches, soups, quiches and fresh baked goods. WiFi? You bet.

Jimmy Nguyen says he hopes to satisfy Allston's craving for sweetness with his proposed 16-seat Mixx Frozen Yogurt.

The licensing board will decide whether to grant the two common victualer's licenses on Thursday.

Huh - this may explain much. Mixx actually opened in early August, and then a couple of weeks ago I noticed it had closed, purportedly "for renovations," which seemed odd for a place that had only been open a couple of weeks in the first place. I checked the Mayor's Food Court to see whether they'd failed an early inspection, but nothing. And here it turns out that they hadn't bothered to get their common victualler's license before opening...

I'm still hoping Tim Horton's will make a foray into Boston and vicinity. Love their coffee, sandwiches and baked goodies. American Runs on Tim's (if it were up to me).
