If you don’t feel comfortable dining indoors just yet, please continue to support our local restaurants by ordering curbside or delivery, buying gift cards, writing reviews online, or following them on social media!

Please be patient with all of our restaurant workers as they continue to work hard to follow the new regulations to ensure a safe and clean environment for everyone! Cheers to getting back into our bars and restaurants and supporting all of the local eateries we have here in McLean County!
