Hurricane Restaurant Causes Controversy With Optional Masks

A restaurant in Hurricane is giving customers and staff the choice of whether or not to wear a mask. In a message posted Wednesday on Facebook, Bridge Cafe and Bistro said the business will not turn away customers who choose not to wear a mask. The post said the restaurant is providing social distancing opportunities in the dining room and outside on its patio. And curbside pickup is available. The health department could shut down the restaurant if staff doesn’t wear masks.
