It's not a shock to anyone that since March of 2020 all restaurants have struggled. Whether it was implementing new cleaning and sanitizing processes or struggling to find enough employees to stay open. It's been tough, especially for locally owned restaurants. That's why I loved to see in a local social media group so many people shouting out their favorite locally owned restaurant.

But as suggestions started rolling in it turned a little bit into best restaurants or stores that serve delicious food options. But as long as they have something delicious to eat and they're locally owned it's great to see people showing them some love.
