ST. FRANCIS, Wis. (SPECTRUM NEWS)- For many small bars and restaurants around Wisconsin, getting the word out that they are still open for carry out business is important as they work to make ends meet. 

Many restaurants are getting creative when it comes to reminding patrons that carry out options exist. At Bert’s Bar in St. Francis, owner Paul Frenn says they are stepping up their social media game as well as turning to old fashioned means to drum up business. 

“We have done a lot of Facebook advertisement, a lot of word of mouth, signs out in the street, telling customers that we are going to have a full menu. Carrying out,” says Paul Frenn. 

Frenn says they have seen many people in the community come together to share social media posts which can make a big difference.
