Located at the edge of Coolidge Park, Café on the Park is River Street’s newest addition that specializes in panini and “sammiches.”
Why the cute spelling?
“I didn’t want to be just another sandwich shop,” said café owner Ed Owens, who is leasing the eatery’s North Shore space inside Burlap & Board: Artisan Boutique.
The antique shop comprises 5,000 square feet and 40 vendors selling wares which include spinning wheels and handmade jewelry. The café is the shop’s only food vendor, but that isn’t all that sets it apart.
