Craving your favorite cuisine?
All Indiana restaurants and bars are closed to dine-in patrons right now. But that doesn’t mean your favorite local restaurants are closed for business! Many restaurants and eateries in Bartholomew County are offering carryout and delivery, and now more than ever your support of these businesses can make a difference in our community.
Our friends at Local News Digital have compiled a list of restaurants offering carryout and delivery – view the list.
Want to help financially support our service industry and hospitality workers? The United Way of Bartholomew County has established a COVID-19 relief fund where you may designate your donation to go to those who serve us every day.
