After a decade of serving up hot drinks and notably delicious waffles to the Cambridge community, Curio Coffee is turning off its espresso machines for good—or so it seemed. In a heartfelt message shared via social media, Curio Coffee has announced its closure, reflecting on 'so many wonderful people and memories over the past decade.' Acknowledging the complexities of managing a family business and the wear of distance, the post explained that now was 'the moment to move on from this chapter in our lives.'

Yet the latte isn't spilling tragic for Curio Coffee lovers, as this goodbye signals a new beginning under a different guise thanks to Karissa Regan who's taking the helm. More about the stirring change came through an update—Troy Schuster of Bluesky noted that the beloved Cambridge Street coffee shop isn't shutting down as it initially appeared but rather undergoing a rebranding process.

While Curio Coffee bids adieu, the space at 441 Cambridge Street remains committed to caffeinated offerings, with Regan at the forefront assuring patrons that the essence of the establishment will persist.
