Tonno Gloucester plans to reopen next Wednesday June 24 for indoor and patio dining as part of Phase 2.2 in the COVID plan. This is very exciting news not just for Tonno but for all of us who think al fresco dining can be a little bit too fresco sometimes. You can use Resy.com to make the online reservation.

From their Facebook page:

We are Very Excited to announce that we will be reopening Wednesday next week for indoor and patio dining. For the last few months we have been preparing to host our customers and friends for a dining experience that is safe, fun and inviting. We will be offering our new menu with the same service that you always expect from us. You can make reservations online for now as our phones are not answered during the day. We hope to see you, your family and friends when you are ready.

I am sure owners Chuck Newman and his sister Joanna Newman are saying “Finally!” to themselves now that their new shop at 184 Washington Street, Crystal Cottage Candies, has opened. They had planned to be open for Valentine’s Day but circumstances, including coronavirus stalled the debut until this week. They are billing themselves as Crystal Cottage Candies & More. In addition to candies, donuts, muffins and cakes; the “More” includes things like turkey legs, chicken wings, and a ham/potato dinner they plan to feature tonight. They are expecting to include florist services as well as a produce market, so keep your eye on that! They can be found on Facebook for updates etc.
