My most faaaaavorite market had a fire last week! I have fond memories of this store (both locations) from when I used to live in Back Bay a couple of years back. I used to swing by the Charles Street shop on my way home from Charlestown and get the best egg salad in the WORLD. DeLuca’s (which claims to be “Boston’s Oldest Grocery Store”) has been a Beacon Hill landmark for over 100 years. What terrible news. I hope the damage is repairable. Beacon Hill just isn’t Beacon Hill without DeLuca’s.
