Bingo is back

The resurrection of an event series is making waves, blending old-school charm with over-the-top indulgence. Once a month, a BYOB Bingo Night brought to you by East Boston Oyster Co. will offer an exclusive experience filled with good food, great prizes, and a touch of mystery. Set for Sunday, February 23rd, from 4-6 PM, this gathering will take place at a secret location, revealed only 24 hours before the event. Guests can expect all-you-can-eat oysters, a caviar pizza party, and an array of surprises, all while enjoying a laid-back bingo format. Unlike past events, which often come with a steeper price tag, this one is a more accessible $115 per ticket, with limited availability. You can purchase tickets here using the password “caviarzaa”. Get the details here.

Support local farms by signing up for a spring CSA share with Farmer Dave’s, including everything from farm fresh produce to baked goods, seasonal soup, and even fudge!  Farmer Dave’s will drop off your order at the East Boston Farmers Market for you to pick up!  How easy is that?  You can sign up here!
