George Clooney knows a Kodak moment when he sees one!

The "Midnight Sky" actor and director headed to Marcorelle's Fine Wine and Beer in Ipswich, Massachusetts, a coastal town located about 45 minutes north of Boston, on Friday morning to film a few quick scenes for his new film The Tender Bar. But when he arrived, he discovered a cardboard cutout of himself from a Casamigos tequila advertisement.

"He came in, and we have two big cutouts in the store of him, and he actually took a photo with his cutout," Leah Smith, who manages her family's store, tells PEOPLE. "He was very nice. He was an incredibly nice guy. Everyone had only good words to say about him."

Dressed in a black polo shirt, jeans, white sneakers and a mask, Clooney filmed two quick takes in between chatting with Smith and her father, who owns the store. Ben Affleck, who stars in The Tender Bar was also present for the filming, but didn't come inside the store.

Clooney, 59, has been making locals smile in the Boston area while filming in recent weeks. On Tuesday, he snapped a selfie with Ashby Police Officer Brian Vautour.

"Who is that masked man? That's right, the one and only, Ashby PD's own, Officer Brian Vautour. Also pictured is some guy named George something or other... Only kidding Mr. Clooney," the police department joked on social media.
