Plainfield Brewery, Coffee Shop Affected By Power Outage Wednesday

PLAINFIELD, IL — Continuing power outages in Plainfield have caused one business to close Wednesday and left another unable to serve drinks until power is restored.

Werk Force Brewing and Ten Drops, both stationed in the same building off Center Street, had their operations affected the day after a severe storm ripped through Plainfield.

The brewery said Wednesday morning it hopes to open at 3 p.m. The coffee shop said it remains open but cannot serve beverages until the power returns. It said it hopes to be able to serve coffee drinks later in the day.

"Thank you for all the support, love, patience, and good vibes while we ride out this latest adventure," Werk Force wrote in a Facebook post. "We appreciate you more than you know."

About 1,660 ComEd customers in Plainfield are impacted by power outages Wednesday, the utility company reported.

Locals can place fallen branches and tree limbs at the curb for pickup. Plainfield Public Works crews began collecting storm debris Wednesday, including private property damage, but urged residents to have patience as the "process will take time."

Mayor John Argoudelis called Tuesday's storm "the worst in Plainfield since the tornadoes of 1990, 1984 and 1974."
