Brookline Residents Reeling After Fire Damages Beloved Restaurants and Wine Store.
A fire broke out at Painted Burro Brookline, a Mexican restaurant in Washington Square, last week, causing significant damage to the building. The blaze quickly spread to the adjacent Vinodivino wine store, forcing both businesses to close indefinitely due to extensive damage.
In Instagram posts, both the restaurant and wine store announced their closure, assuring customers that they will reopen bigger and better than before. The fire damaged the basement of Painted Burro's building, causing moderate damage but fortunately resulting in no injuries to anyone.
According to Brookline Fire Chief John Sullivan, an investigation is ongoing into the cause of the fire, with officials currently ruling out any suspicious circumstances. While a repair timeline remains uncertain due to the lack of power in the affected buildings days after the incident, customers can rest assured that other branches of both businesses remain operational.
Painted Burro Brookline has branches in Kenmore, Beacon Hill, Newton, and Needham, offering patrons alternative options while repairs are made at their Washington Square location. The news comes as a significant blow to locals who cherished these beloved establishments for their unique flavors and exceptional customer service.
