Some of our patios will open temporarily on warm days, and all our patios should be ready for you to enjoy regularly within the next month.
Chancho’snot-so-authentic SoCal Cocina y Cantina will be opening at 119 S. Main Street in Middleton this spring!
Chancho’s menu will be focused on fresh ingredients, colorful plates, and bold flavors. Incorporating chilies and spices,the menu will have some Mexican influence while conveying a fresh perspective that is reminiscent of Southern California.
Guests will feel as though they have been transported to SoCal when they step into the door. The space will be festive, colorful and inviting, with a family-friendly atmosphere and lively bar scene.

Free COVID Pop Up Testing Event This Wednesday in the ELKS Parking Lot
The Gloucester ELKS and TableBoost are pleased to jointly announce a morning of free COVID Testing in the ELKS Parking Lot at 101 Atlantic Road in Gloucester on Wednesday, March 24th from 9:00am until 1:00pm, or until testing kits run out.
When you get to the ELKS Lodge, you will be given a test kit for you and anyone else with you. Each kit has a nasal swab, a vial to put the sample in, and a form to fill out including insurance information. The tests are to be self-administered while staying in your car, and will be collected by volunteers as you exit the parking lot. Results will be available within 48 to 72 hours via email or text.
“TableBoost is very pleased to be working with the ELKS to provide these valuable COVID tests to the community at no charge. Although most of us are starting to feel very hopeful that this pandemic is nearing its end, the number of new cases is still high and people are still getting infected so we need to keep testing to keep our community safe.” said TableBoost CEO Tim Collins.
Adds Gloucester ELKS Exalted Ruler Brenda Leahy, “We think that as businesses open back up, COVID testing will remain important for our community. So watch for more free pop up testing dates over the next few months.”
There is no out of pocket fee, but the Lodge is recommending a $10 per person donation. And to save time, you can download the test form to complete it before arriving.
About TableBoost
TableBoost’s facilities management app saves hospitality business thousands of $$ per year on equipment repair, maintenance and purchases while increasing customer satisfaction, streamlining staff communications, and increasing productivity and engagement.

Eagle Pair at Little River
We came across a pair of eagles in the vicinity of Little River yesterday battling constant assaults from unhappy hawks. The eagle appear to be a nesting pair attempting to get their nest ready. Two trips were made to leave the nest to retrieve sticks. The hawks seemed to take advantage of any momentary lapse of watchfulness, attacking again as soon as the mate returned with nesting material. It was a stunning display of coordinated defense as the eagles placed themselves strategically to protect the other’s back and the nest as the hawks approached. The hawk pair also seemed to coordinate its attack of harassment. A great deal of screeching from both species was heard. It seems these eagles are in this nest to stay so we will be keeping an eye on them.
