The Mix Porter Square

The Mix Porter Square is the current name of Porter Square Shopping Center on White Street. Its collection of shops, food businesses and services makes it a place to combine several errands, with Porter station close by. The name has changed, but this remains a shopping destination woven into the neighborhood’s daily routines.

There are reasons to stay after the shopping is done. The center’s calendar includes art programming and evenings such as chess and mahjong at Cafe Zing, while a Little Free Library offers a place to exchange books. Check the calendar for upcoming dates rather than assuming those activities happen every day. Store hours vary by tenant, so confirm with the particular shop or restaurant you plan to visit.
