Rite Tea & Espresso

Tea and coffee lovers, rejoice. Rite Tea & Espresso is now open at the Speedway! 

Rite is the first bricks and mortar location of The Wicked Thrawl, which has been popping up at the Koji Club over the past year. 

What can you expect? A beautiful coffee and tea bar, offering tea, coffee, espresso and a wide range of seasonal specialty drinks. Rite is a haven where enthusiasts can gather, indulge in their passions, and expand their understanding of tea, coffee, whisky, and the intricacies of local food systems. 

Rite also offers breakfast and lunch bites, and every menu item is a labor of local love. Try the sweet yogurt bowl with ginger marmalade or the savory yogurt bowl with pickled beets and microgreens. Another must try: the toasts!  There’s the marmalade toast, with ginger marmalade and yuzu salt;  the maple vanilla butter toast, made with smoked vermont maple syrup; and the savory beans on toast, made with brothy garlicky cannellini beans. 

Rite and The Wicked Thrawl follow the wheel of the year. Keep checking back in for new and expanded menu items that change with the season.

Pizza Project

Pizza Project

 

Long-time Speedway friends, collaborators, and makers of delicious things, Dan and Allie Spinale started Pizza Project in 2021 with a mission to create the best pizza possible.

Focusing on naturally leavened pizzas with stone milled flours and local and in season ingredients, Pizza Project began as a mobile operation, taking their wood-fired pizza oven around Greater Boston, delighting pizza lovers wherever they went (including here at The Speedway!)

With their first bricks and mortar location, the duo has created an incredibly delicious menu built around Sicilian slices and sandwiches, with inventive salads and specials coming soon.

The Koji Club

The Koji Club

Boston’s first sake bar!

The Koji Club is a safe space to learn about and celebrate Japanese sake, and to reframe sake from an esoteric sushi companion to an approachable everyday beverage choice. At the Koji Club, guests can enjoy sake while also learning about its culture and history from an industry leader and tastemaker.

Founded in 2020 by advanced sake professional Alyssa Mikiko DiPasquale, the Koji Club started out as a “virtual clubhouse” of bi-weekly tastings and special events, though the long term vision always included a physical location. We are so glad Alyssa found her home in The Speedway.

In July 2022, Alyssa was named Boston Magazine‘s Best Beverage Director in their annual Best of Boston issue, and most recently on Condé Nast Travelers’ 2023 Hot List: Best New Restaurants in the World
