we disinfect everything and
there is limited seating that
goes with social distancing.=
Manager Mike Andrusco
mentioned they opened
Memorial Day Weekend and
patrons are slowly coming
back in.
<It9s been wonderful to see
all their faces, although they
can9t see mine,= Andrusco
said, chuckling. <Our locals
have been coming out and
showing us support. We are
running a limited menu of
our top sellers. Right now,
it9s 21 and older, and we will
expand our hours and seating
with time as permitted and
are continuing to complete
our remodeling to offer the
best experience we can for
guests.=
Some local restaurants
have delayed reopening din-
ing rooms during Phase I.
Takoda9s Restaurant
and Lounge manager Kyle
Harbick noted that they
should be open soon.
<We are getting ready to
be able to stick to the gover-
nor9s guidelines and regula-
tions but are mainly finishing
up some projects,= Harbick
explained. <When we reopen,
we will have a full menu but
no salad bar. Our regulars
have been awesome and are
excited about getting out on
our patio to eat.=
The dining room and bar
in Chops Bistro has been
empty since mid-March.
Prior to shutdown, owner
Tracy Syanovitz said busi-
ness was up 84 percent from
last year9s numbers.
<We opened on May 15.
Business was good Friday
and Saturday,= she said. <The
rest of week, not so busy.
We do have the same chef
and same employees. This is
going to be a challenge with
the same amount of staff, but
with limited business. Right
now, due to eight weeks of
shutdown and limited num-
bers reopening, I am down 15
percent from last year.=
She added, <I think what
will help business this sum-
mer, due to limited seating,
will be my outside seating.
Last night, I had one table
in the dining room and a full
porch. Tables are six feet
apart and people feel safer
in an outdoor setting. The
menu is the same, and we
are going to expand bar food
next week, due to a renova-
tion taking place in kitchen.=
Chops will be having live
entertainment again but keep-
ing strict with volume in the
lounge area to keep within
the regulations.
People are excited to
be back at dine in restau-
rants, even if it is with a new
normal.
<The amount of support-
ive feedback that we have
gotten has been wonderful as
far as people being so grate-
ful to be able to come to a
place where they can feel
normal again,= said Sarah
Spaniol,= Cottonwood Café
manager. <We have a new
simpler temporary menu with
indoor and outdoor seating.=
Cottonwood Café is
open now Thursday through
Monday, with additional
seating on the sidestreet
alongside the cottage.
Three Creeks Brewing
Company is open and keep-
ing it simple.
< We o p e n e d l a s t
Wednesday and did the first
two days of just online order-
ing to go, then we opened
inside on the Friday of
Memorial Day weekend. It
went good but business is still
down,= said manager Mark
Perry. <The Sisters Stampede
bike race has always brought
a lot of traffic. We9re keep-
ing the menu simple; there9s
always that possibility of a
second wave of COVID-19.=
Cork Cellars opened its
doors Friday, May 15, and
manager Heather Belmont is
happy to see at least half of
the regulars coming back in.
She said, <It9s the same
menu for Cork Cellars with a
special every week.=
Co-owner Tom Buck has
been thinking creatively, fig-
uring out ways to keep their
live music traditions.
<We are excited about
getting entertainment back
in Phase III, maybe in June
sometime,= Buck said. <We
plan to have two one-hour
shows like the jazz clubs in
the old days. An early set,
clean up, disinfect then a
later set.=
He added, <This town has
absolutely embraced us since
we moved in here and has
been incredibly supportive.=
Renee Reitmeier, Fika
Sisters Coffee House owner,
opened her doors from curb-
side to inside on Memorial
Day.
The support from
my regulars is something
I will always remember
as long as I live.
— Renee Reitmeier
Reitmeier said, <I love
our community and hope we
can continue to support each
other as we each journey
through this and work out
how best we feel it is to live
during this time. The support
from my regulars is some-
thing I will always remember
as long as I live. They stood
in wind and rain and waited
patiently while coffee was
made. I am forever grateful.=

Re: Why We Recommend Ross
Ross is a real professional. We had a unique,
luxury property, which required special
attention to the marketing. He quickly
brought us a qualifi ed buyer and went the
extra mile to help with the many details
during the middle of the coronavirus
quarantine. As seasonal owners, we could
never have met our closing deadline without
him. There’s no better realtor than Ross!
