AI-Powered Food Market Opens In Arlington

ARLINGTON, MA — A new food market with automated checkout has opened in Arlington.

"Fresh & Go!", operated by Arsenal Catering Group, is located at 325 Broadway in Arlington Center. The business announced the opening as its first 24/7 location, offering breakfast sandwiches, wraps, sandwiches, and protein yogurt.

Fresh & Go uses refrigerated smart coolers designed to allow customers to tap a credit card, open the door, select their food, and leave. According to the company, the system uses artificial intelligence to identify the items customers take and process their purchases without a cashier. Food is prepared daily at Arsenal Catering Group’s commercial kitchen in Cambridge.

The company’s menu includes bacon, egg, and cheese bagels, smoked salmon bagels, turkey, egg, and avocado croissants, caprese sandwiches, tuna salad wraps, and vegan falafel wraps. Beverage options include canned Starbucks coffee, Nantucket Nectars, sparkling water, and bottled water.

“Behind the scenes, AI‑powered item recognition and smart sensors ensure accurate tracking, guaranteed freshness, and automatic restocking alerts,” the company said in a statement.

Arsenal Catering Group traces its roots to Flame Café, which opened in Boston’s Financial District in 2013, featuring gyros and kebabs. The business introduced its first catering menu in 2014 before expanding its catering operations. The business markets its coolers to offices, hospitals, apartment communities, universities, and other locations throughout Greater Boston. Fresh & Go also has locations inside two Mobil gas stations in Waltham.
