Google is testing showing a "service update" section in the Google local panels for some businesses. It seems to be a section to update searchers around COVID-19 changes to the business hours or services, like dine-in or curbside and takeout options for restaurants.

Here is a screen shot of this from Darcy Burk on Twitter:

Google has been showing the restaurant options, like takeout, delivery, dine-in, etc for a while now but this "service update" box is new and more in your face.

What happens when you click on it?
