According to a post from boston.com, Hobgoblin plans to debut this month in Downtown Crossing, moving into the former Stoddard's Fine Food & Ale space on Temple Place. The post mentions that the new spot will also be a gastropub-style place (and a piano bar), though with Asian fusion fare including such options as black cod croquettes, Korean rice cakes, chicken basil burgers, duck confit, smoked bacon pad Thai, and salted salmon fried rice on its menu.

Stoddard's announced its closure in the fall of 2021 after being in business for approximately ten years.

The address for Hobgoblin is 48 Temple Place, Boston, MA, 02111. Its website can be found at https://www.hobgoblinbar.com/
