Courageous article from Will Gilson about the varied, contradictory, and seemingly never-ending challenges of running a restaurant during a pandemic. Thanks for reading! #ReplenishRRF #SaveRestaurants Independent Restaurant Coalition

Thanks Amy Radil at KUOW for hearing Seattle Coffee Works and other #smallbusiness as we ask govt and residents to stand up for main streets with compassion and commitment. #MainStreets have been doubly beleaguered by two years of pandemic and violence... we need people to show up now!
