AIRWAY HEIGHTS, Wash. The next time you head to your favorite restaurant for a bite to eat, they could be closed. Local shops are changing their hours and even closing an extra day because they’re struggling to fill open positions.
One-hundred percent capacity doesn’t mean things go back to normal; that’s what Longhorn Barbecue in Airway Heights is experiencing.
It’s been tough, as managing partner Erin Everhart says, people expect to have the consistency a restaurant offers prior to the pandemic.
“When they hear 100 percent opened, they’re expecting to come back to their favorite places and be open and be able to celebrate. That’s just not the case,” she said.
Longhorn Barbecue co-owners Zac Smith and Erin Everhart. A short drive west from Spokane, you ll find a land filled with purpose. In Airway Heights, it s a town built next to an Air Force base. In Cheney, it s a town built around a college. But after work or school, you need some good food to wind down. It s possible to pop into Spokane for a bite to eat, but there s no need. You can get all the fun you need at Northern Quest Resort & Casino. And between barbecue, pizza and Asian food, Cheney and Airway Heights have plenty of variety for you.
