A while ago, I heard they were having financial problems. They were big in the North East, probably because of the name!

We used to go the Boston Market in Palm Harbor every other week. Would like to get a Boston Market in the Villages but it would have to be near Southern Trace for us to use it rather than Crispers, Subway, NYPD Pizza, and the other close by places we frequent.

The Boston Market in Palm Harbor was about 3 miles from our house so not much of a drive and I could take the back roads to avoid the often murderous Highway 19.

Palm Harbor is between Tarpon Springs and Clearwater near Dunedin, Oldsmar and Safety Harbor.

The Tampa Bay area has 13 Boston Market restaurants.

Brooksvile, Florida now has a lot of restaurants including McDonalds.

When we drove it, back in the '80s it was fairly empty up to Brooksville.

I think there's also a newish (to us anyway) major highway connecting Brooksville and that Spring Hill massive development to the Tampa ST. Pete area........but at the time, we liked to take the slower roads to see more things. At that time, Tarpon Springs was very pretty.....very different. I'm sure that Brooksville has "grown up" since the '80s.

If I were there now, I'd definitely go to the Greek restaurants.

Again, thanks for letting me know.
US 19 in the Tarpon Springs area through St Pete. area used to be one of the Top Ten deadliest roads in the US with a death about every other week and many accidents as well. It is like putting a major freeway through a series of strip malls. http://tbo.com/pinellas-county/us--i...putation-22650

They changed their name at one point. I'm having trouble remembering what it was, but it was something similar to Boston Market. B........ Market.

The food is very tasty. AllI'm saying is don't make the mistake of thinking that it is some kind of healthy meal.

Love Boston Market. I think it would be a great addition to The Villages.

Ditto on having Boston Market here in the Villages. Have also sent them emails and have had no replays. Wrote to Omaha Steaks also asking them to consider opening an outlet store here.

Used to be Boston Chicken until the mid 90's.
