Changing Business Models to Deal with Covid-19: New Town Restaurants
Posted on May 1, 2020 7:00 AM by Mary Cheston
Not in the mood to cook tonight? Consider patronizing one of our local New Town restaurants who remain in limited operation following the State’s guidelines. We all know how important it is to keep our New Town business district vibrant. Until we are able to dine in and welcome them back in person, carryout is the next best thing! (Operations may change. Most of these locally-owned restaurants update their information on their Facebook pages rather than websites.) Give them your support.
- Anatolia Bar and Grill is offering its full menu for carryout or delivery with a 10% discount. Call 220-3840.
- Center Street Grill has a special weekly menu available for delivery or pick up 757-220-460.
- Cogan’s is currently open Monday through Saturday for carry-out and delivery. Delivery is free for New Town residents, who also get 15% off everything except alcoholic beverages. You can call in your order, or visit cogansdeli.com and click the “Order Online” option in the upper right corner. And Cogan’s will deliver alcoholic beverages too.
- Corner Pocket is also open for takeout with curb side delivery Monday through Saturday till 7pm. Call 220-0808. Or you can order through Door Dash. They are featuring dinner specials at reasonable prices.

National chains including Blaze Pizza, Bonefish, Buffalo Wild Wings and Panera are also offering takeout options. Most ordering is via their websites. (Note: First Watch, Jimmy Johns, and Sweet Frog are temporarily closed and Capriccio Ristorante is permanently closed.)
As an additional incentive for a daytime stroll, there is a fresh produce market operating daily, weather permitting, between Iron-bound Gym and Paul’s Deli. Hours Monday through Saturday 10am to 4pm and Sunday 10am to 2pm.
