Jamaica Plain coffeehouse gets new owners, new name and maybe new wine

By adamg on Wed, 05/15/2024 - 3:11pm

Maya and Gabby, who run the Jadu series of wine-focused pop-up events in Boston, report they've bought Espresso Yourself, 767 Centre St., near the Monument and plan to stay coffee by day, under their Jadu name, but turn wine bar by night ("liquor license pending," they say).

The only time I want my brain stimulant free is when I’m sleeping.

Neither you nor I are aware of the terms of the acquisition. The existing business owners could have gotten a very nice payout for their business.

Were they forced to sell? Perhaps they just wanted to cash out and not continue operating the business.

Did they force the owners to sell to them at gunpoint? Or did the owners put the shop up for sale voluntarily?

Sounds great. JP has lost so many liquor licenses to the Seaport.
