A Mexican restaurant on the North Shore is going to be leaving its current location and will be reopening in another space not all that far away.
According to a Facebook post from the business, The NexMex Thing in Peabody is closing and will move to a new space in Lynn, with the post saying the following:
After 10 incredible years, we have made the difficult decision to close our doors in Peabody....This decision was not made lightly. The prolonged road work in the area, ongoing for the past two years and expected to continue for 2-3 more years, has significantly impacted accessibility to our restaurant. The resulting detours and street closures ultimately forced us to discontinue lunch service and made it increasingly difficult to operate sustainably. While this chapter is coming to a close, our connection to Peabody remains strong. We will be actively looking for opportunities to return to the city in the near future. Until then, we will relocate Nexmex to 125 Lynnfield Street in Lynn early June. Our last day in Peabody will be April 30th, 2026.
The post also refers diners to their other dining spot (Pots, a hotpot restaurant at 77 Main Steet in Peabody).
The current address for The NexMex Thing is 5 Central Street, Peabody, MA, 01960. Its website can be found at https://nexmexthing.com/
