Suburban Bars Temporarily Close After Patrons Threaten Staff Over Pandemic Policies | Eater Chicago

"Along with Beer on the Wall, Off the Wall Cafe was closed briefly by owner Ryan Tracy so employees could get a break after a particularly difficult week in which patrons threatened staff over enforcement of city and state pandemic guidelines—Tracy reported that servers and bartenders faced complaints about COVID procedures being too strict or not strict enough, a trivia host was physically threatened, and staff received threats for enforcing the patio pet policy." - Naomi Waxman
