I was also out last week to Stellwagen Bank, on 7 Seas Whale Watch, to see what the excitement was all about.









On Tuesday it was an unusual day with sun. Nice to see the boats moored at Cripple Cove.

This summer, The Lunch Lady is thrilled to roll into one of Gloucester’s most beloved seasonal spots — The Cupboard at Stage Fort Park. ![]()

For 60 years, The Cupboard was a classic Gloucester summer tradition, serving up casual favorites for beachgoers, families, and locals alike. While no one could ever replace what it meant to this community, we’re honored to bring new life to this iconic location with the same fun, nostalgic spirit.
The Lunch Lady menu is packed with comfort food classics with our own twist — crispy chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, corn dogs, grilled cheese, tater tots, sweet treats, and more — perfect for summer days by the water.
Plenty of parking and picnic tables to boot!
Stay tuned for opening day, hours, and summer dates!
Ordered three different empanadas and they were all delicious. Give em a try. You’ll be glad you did!
