Lemont Local Business Guide: What's Open Or Closed In Town

LEMONT, IL — The coronavirus is having a profound impact on the global economy, and has been particularly damaging to local businesses that depend on foot-traffic and in-person interactions with their customers. Even so, many businesses have found ways to stay open and to offer delivery, pick-up and safe-distance transactions to serve the community.

We put a call out to local businesses on Lemont Patch and asked them to update their status, give details on how you can continue to patronize them and to let the community know how they can best help during these challenging times.

You can find the local guide for Lemont here.

Here is what just a few local businesses are doing:

• Allegro Music and Dance Academy is offering music and dance classes online
• Kitaro, open for delivery through DoorDash and GrubHub
• Lemont Ace Hardware, offering curbside pick-up, open every day
• Lange's Woodland Flowers, phone and online orders for curbside pick-up or delivery
• Wooden Paddle, offering delivery and carry-out

We're going to keep this guide live throughout the impact of the coronavirus, to help our readers support the businesses that serve Lemont. Businesses can update their status in the guide at any time. To help support our local merchants and business owners, we encourage you to share this article or the link to the guide with neighbors, via email and social media. The businesses need our support.

Patch will be rolling out a number of new initiatives and resources to help local business owners in the coming days, so stay tuned and please stay safe.
