The Courthouse Fish Market, once a bustling hub for fresh seafood, has closed its doors to the dismay of local shoppers.
A recent post circulated by Bluesky user troysch1.bsky.social announced the closure, citing a heartfelt message from the market's website: "Dear valued Customers We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your years of support and patronage at the fish market. It is with a heavy heart we share the news that our fish market will be closing on January 13, 2024. We sincerely thank you for your years of unwavering support and patronage. While the fish market bids farewell, we are excited to inform you that our restaurant will continue to serve you with the same dedication to quality and excellence. We look forward to welcoming you to the restaurant next door." Courthouse Seafood, the market's adjacent restaurant, will stay open, serving its signature Portuguese fare among other beloved seafood dishes, according to details posted by the Boston Restaurant Talk blog.
Established in 1912, Courthouse Fish Market had a reputation for stocking some of the freshest fish in New England, hauled daily from the docks. The market, located at 484 Cambridge Street in Cambridge, MA, was known for setting the standard for reasonable prices and prime seafood offerings, as was proudly boasted on their website.
