Pressed Juicery at 288 Newbury appears to have closed

Money Moves Boston, MA local

The juice bar's license is missing from Boston's active food establishment list, and Google marks the address permanently closed.

Today: License missing for second consecutive reading

Overview

Updated 1 hour ago

Pressed Juicery's location at 288 Newbury Street in Boston no longer appears on the city's list of active food establishment licenses. The license, dated March 10, 2017, was present on the list as recently as November 10, 2026, but has been missing from two consecutive readings since. Google's listing for the address also marks the business as permanently closed.

A license can lapse for reasons other than closure, such as a change in ownership or a temporary suspension. But the combination of the missing license and Google's status suggests the juice bar may have shut down. The store opened in 2017 as part of Pressed Juicery's first expansion into New England, replacing a Pinkberry frozen yogurt shop.

Why it matters

If confirmed, the closure would end Pressed Juicery's first New England location, opened in 2017 on a key Newbury Street block.

Now

The location remained a food establishment, but the tenant changed.

Why this matters now

Shows that 288 Newbury Street has seen turnover before, with one food trend replacing another.
