Malden to open its first Starbucks store
Malden is finally getting a Starbucks. The seemingly ubiquitous coffee shop chain will open its first-ever location in the city this fall, the developer of an office building in Malden Center said Monday. Berkeley Investments confirmed that Starbucks will occupy about 2,500 square feet in the ground floor of Exchange 200, a research and life-sciences project Berkeley is completing this year near the Malden Center MBTA station. The Starbucks will take the place of a Caffe Nero shop that had been planned in the building prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Two full-service restaurants 110 Grill and Evviva Trattoria opened at the building earlier this summer. Malden Mayor Gary Christenson first broke the news in a tweet last week. “Since I came into office, I have to say that Starbucks was our most requested franchise,” he said. “We have been on the hunt for all these years.” TIM
