Café Bischo is a little restaurant at 51 Main Street. Yesterday I had supper there with a friend, and it was great as always! We ate at a table outside on the sidewalk, enjoying the sunny summer evening.
I had their “Mediterranean Vegetable Soup”:

It was delicious, and was accompanied by heated, buttered, fresh bread, which was perfect for dipping in the tomato-based broth.
The sun shone bright through my glass of water:

To be honest, all I can vouch for from personal experience is their soup. That’s the only thing I’ve ever eaten at this venue (and at several other restaurants), because I am a huge soup fan, and their soup is always good! But the people with whom I have eaten there have also enjoyed their victuals, whether soup or otherwise. Plus, I have seen a steady flow of people buying their ice cream or frozen yogurt, so that must be good too!
Actually, I can also vouch for their friendly customer service. So, if while on or near Main Street, you get a hankering for a bite to eat, hot or cold, you should give Café Bishco a try!

I am a daily contributor to
GoodMorningGloucester (GMG for short), a blog by and about the community of Gloucester specifically and Cape Ann in general. The content is diverse, ranging from the beautiful and sublime to the earthy and occasionally offensive. I hope my contributions are of the former kind, not the latter. So, while I cannot endorse all the content that is posted there, I am grateful to Joey (the founder and admin of the blog) for giving me space to make my contribution.
I also have my own blog,
Perpetual Learner, which mostly includes my homilies and some re-posts from GMG, but also sometimes has other content, such as my personal reflections, videos I like, etc.
We ate there with our little ones and the food was really good..

Looks like good soup and your eating outside reminds me of Rome. Lovely.
On a similar (soup) theme, the sausage stew at Stone’s Pub is terrific — and so is the champagne mojito.
