Bowery Bound For Harvard Square

The Bowery Presents is dipping its toe into the restaurant business with a new venue and restaurant slated to open in Cambridge, Mass.’s Harvard Square this fall in coordination with Chef Michael Schlow.

The Sinclair will feature a 525-capacity music venue with two dining spaces able to accommodate 104 patrons, plus a seasonal patio. The room will also include a wraparound mezzanine level with its own bar area and a d&b audiotechnik sound system.    

“The Bowery Presents has based the core of its business on highlighting a wide cross section of great music while delivering first-class hospitality to both artists and guests, which will continue at The Sinclair,” The Bowery Presents’ Josh Bhatti said.

“Having lived in the Boston area my whole life, I am ecstatic to be a part of bringing what I truly believe will be the best music venue in my hometown. Working with Michael Schlow and his team has been great, and we plan to launch a restaurant that will be a destination and a welcome addition to the neighborhood.”

Schlow, a James Beard Award recipient, owns and operates six restaurants in the Boston area that feature modern French, Italian and Latin cuisine.

Upcoming shows at The Sinclair include The Meter Men with Page McConnell, Andrew Jackson Jihad, K’naan and The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. Onsale dates are forthcoming.
