Restaurant News and Updates (COVID-19)

***Effective at 5:00 pm today (March 17), the Governor is declaring a ban on gatherings of 10 people or more.

It has been a rough week for our community, especially our restaurant industry. Events like these show how fragile but resilient our society can be. Just in the past couple of days, we’ve seen things escalate in regards to social distancing, closures and cancellations. Things will undoubtedly get worse before they get better. To ensure our restaurants and small food businesses survive, please show your support where you can, purchase gift cards, shop local, and send your favorite restaurants a message online. We have so much respect for the folks in our food industry, from restaurants to grocery stores that are working around the clock to make sure shelves are stocked and meals are prepared. Thank you! 

Wisconsin Foodie and Edible Milwaukee are 100% dedicated to helping our restaurant industry through these tough times. Please monitor our website and Facebook pages for industry updates and info about what you can do to help local restaurants and food businesses. As many of our Edible Milwaukee pick up locations will be closed, we'd like to send you a copy if you don't already have one. Click here for a free copy!

As of now, Smorgasbord will be postponed until further notice. If you have purchased tickets to the event, we will be refunding your money. Once it is safe to gather again in public, we would like to reorganize Smorgasbord to be a fundraiser for our restaurant community. 

If you are a restaurant or food business and you’d like our help, please reach out asap. We plan to do what it takes, from sharing information to eventually working with local governments to help with financial relief. We are here to help! 

Please send us information regarding your restaurant’s hours, service, closure or menu changes.

Fill out this —> google form <— so we know what info to post.
