Sad news for shoppers at one department store, another permanent closure due to COVID-19 shutdown orders. Author: Elizabeth Worthington Updated: 5:15 PM EST January 7, 2021
WILKES-BARRE, Pa. The restaurant inside Boscov s department store in Wilkes-Barre had been closed for weeks due to Governor Wolf s recent ban on indoor dining.
That ban has now been lifted, but the restaurant will never reopen. It s very sad that it is closing and they had the best burgers in town, they really did. And I m sure it will be missed by a lot of people, said Tina Hampel of Wilkes-Barre. It s sad because it was a resting place for people to come sit, eat, have conversation, do their shopping. Now when you go in there, you re not going to have anywhere to sit and eat at, you re going to have to leave and find something else. And it has a little bit of memory and history to it, said Thomas Acevedo of Wilkes-Barre.
