Supporting the local businesses around the Pacific Northwest that you love and care about is more important now than ever. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has affected communities in King County, and Washington State. The CDC and the King County Public Health blog have shared recommendations to help protect and slow the spread of this virus. In the meantime, local businesses, namely restaurants in the greater Seattle area are taking proactive measures to maintain superior levels of cleanliness, and adding additional steps in the day to day to ease their patrons minds, and keep staff healthy.
Here are a few local restaurants in the Seattle and Bellevue area doing their part to ease their customer’s minds, promote their love for the community, and keep their guests happy and full.

Speaking of more on the blog, HI, I’m Nicole, I own Social Werks Communications. I’ve been a content creator, Social Media strategist, local business advocate, and travel, food and beverage writer for almost a decade. I LOVE the PNW, and I love repping the brands, the people, and the places that make the PNW come alive. Without these local brands and iconic destinations to dine at, play at, drink at, and socialize at, the PNW charm and appeal is lost. I’m currently building my Social Media brand, “A Social Appetite“. You can find me on Instagram and Facebook promoting all of the things I love to promote, and I keep saying it, but the blog or vlog is coming soon guys. Thanks for supporting me, and thank you for supporting local business. Eat local, shop local Seattle and all throughout the PNW.
