List of stores, restaurants in Mich. Adjusting hours or closing amid coronavirus emergency

With social distancing becoming the new norm, restaurants and retailers across the United States are adjusting business practices.

As of Monday, Gov. Whitmer mandated that all bars and restaurants in Michigan close their in-person dining room and prepare food for carry-out or delivery only. That also applies to national fast food chains. Gyms, movie theaters and many other public gathering spaces were also included in a mandated closure.

Gov. Whitmer has also recommended gatherings be reduced to 50 people or less in the time being. Because of this, many events, whether personal, like weddings, or public, like concerts, are also up in the air right now. 

Here is a list of businesses, such as grocers and retail, that have amended their hours during the coronavirus state or emergency - or closed down completely.

RESTAURANTS

All bars and restaurants in Michigan are only open right now for carry-out or delivery service.
