The longtime Watertown Square location will close Feb. 11.

Not Your Average Joe’s is closing its Watertown location after nearly three decades in business.
The restaurant at 55 Main St. will serve its last customers on Wednesday, Feb. 11, a company spokesperson confirmed to MassLive.
In a statement shared with MassLive, a spokesperson said the team is grateful for its decades in Watertown and for the customers they’ve met along the way.
The Watertown closure follows the shutdown of the chain’s Peabody location in December 2025, according to Boston Restaurant Talk.
Not Your Average Joe’s first opened in Dartmouth in 1994. The restaurant is known for its eclectic American-style menu, casual dining atmosphere, and offerings like happy hour specials, brunch, and dinner packages.
The chain still has Massachusetts locations open in Acton, Bedford, Norwell, Hyannis, Waltham, and Westwood, along with out-of-state restaurants in New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia.
Boston.com reached out to the company for comment but did not hear back in time for publication.
