Dozens of St. Louis restaurants temporarily shutter in wake of COVID-19 crisis


As people and businesses scramble to stay afloat during the coronavirus pandemic, some local restaurants and bars have altered their business practices to ensure they can continue operating. Many places, however, have opted to temporarily close, while a few others have shuttered permanently due to the crisis. 

Here, we've compiled a list of all current closures. We will continue to update this list, so if you have suggested edits, please contact Lauren Healey at lhealey@saucemagazine.com.
