WINNIPEG --
Business isn’t exactly booming in downtown Winnipeg.
“It’s been a lot quieter than we’re used to,” said Katie Peters, taproom and retail manager for Lake of the Woods Brewing Company’s True North Square location.
“Back at the start of the year when we had the Jets here it was a lot busier,” said Peters. “But since March, it’s been quiet.”
Online and pickup orders are still coming in, said Peters, but off-the-street foot traffic is significantly down.
It’s a similar story next door at Hargrave St. Market, which includes the recently-opened Mottola Grocery.
