Local Businesses to Support Now - What's Open in Princeton
Due to COVID-19, our area is experiencing something like never before. While you are staying at home, we hope that you stay safe, healthy and sane. We’ve rounded up local area businesses that are open for you to get supplies and food — or simply to enjoy at home —and broke them down into categories including Necessities, Restaurants (offering to go & delivery), Coffee Shops & Bakeries & Miscellaneous. If you are able, now more than ever, these local shops need our support. Call the shop before you visit, as this list may change from time of posting, as situations change. (And please let us know if you know a local spot we missed! Email rfullan@princetononline.com)
