Doughnuts and coffee pair as well together as nearly any other breakfast food.
One half of that connection at the DCU Center will be ending this weekend.
Reign Cafe will end operations at the arena after this weekend, owner Tam Lee told MassLive. Glazy Susan, which also occupies the space will continue to expand in the location.
Reign Cafe opened at the DCU Center in September amid the pandemic. It represented Lee’s second location. Reign Drink Lab is located in Dorchester.
“The pandemic really did throw a wrench into everything,” Lee said. “I had these thriving restaurants in Dorchester and Quincy. Everything was like a machine. The assumption was there was no reason to believe that that was ever going to change.”
Amid the pandemic, Lee closed his restaurant in Quincy for six months and Reign Drink Lab was closed for several months.
“I felt like I was neglecting them,” Lee said of his restaurants in the Boston area while trying to open Reign Cafe in Worcester.
Lee was also a key member of opening Chashu Ramen + Izkaya on Franklin Street. The time at both restaurants and the commute between Worcester and Boston became too much for Lee to sustain.
While Lee focuses on navigating his locations in Eastern Massachusetts out of the pandemic, he also wants focus on being a father.
“The business itself is doing great,” Lee said. “The financial gain is there. Great investment. Great business. I love the location and everything about it.”
For that reason, he’s extremely excited for the opportunity ahead for Glazy Susan.
“I see so much potential for them,” Lee said. “They’re already doing great. I can see them growing even bigger. So it’s like wins all across the board.”
