Here is a status update from our advertisers via Facebook posts:

Taco Tierra: Facebook post from Walt Blake-The dinning room is closed in Princeton due to remodeling, at least thru Tuesday. The governor has shut down dinning rooms in Illinois thru the end of the month. All Taco Tierra drive through will continue to be open.

Famous J’s Drive-Thru: We at Famous J’s would like to make it clear that we, and other restaurants in town, will be open for business. We want to encourage our customers to support not only our restaurant, but all of the great businesses here in Mt. Carmel. Indoor dining is currently restricted by the governor's order, but drive thru, carry out and where available, delivery is available. Thanks, Famous J

Keensburg Cafe: Closed per Governor’s order.

Tequila’s: Hello Friends, with the recent regulations placed on Illinois restaurants we have been required to cease our in-store service. With that said curbside pick-up WILL BE AVAILABLE at all locations through March 30th from 11am-8pm daily.

Big Jon’s Lunchbox: Due to the Governor’s mandate we have decided to close down until March 30th..the curbside service approach is not feasible for us..It is with great regret that we have made this decision but plan to reopen as soon as this mandate is lifted. We appreciate your support. We will be in prayer that this whole situation is resolved quickly and would appreciate your prayers for our Big Jons staff and families. God is good all the time!

We will be catering for groups of 20 or more. Due to the limited amount of inventory we will have on hand not all our regular catering items may be available on short notice. For catering call 618-263-8680

Little Italy’s Pizza: Dining room closed now. Delivery and curbside service available.

Vick’s Bread & Brew: Closed until March 30th.

Tastee Freeze: Due to Covid-19, we will be closing our dining room. All other services are up and running! We can serve you in Drive Thru and at front counter! Our number one concern is and always be the health of our employees and customers. Again, all ice cream and food services will be open for call in, drive thru and front counter orders!

Subway-Mt. Carmel: Will be open (as of right now) 9 am to 8 pm and only for remote and call-in orders.
