***Updated April 9, 2021***
Hours may not be as listed as businesses are continuing to pivot and adjust to the ‘Stay-at-Home’ Order. Please contact the business directly for their current hours and operating protocol.
Below is a comprehensive list of all the businesses that are allowed to continue offering services and as Niagara and the entire province are in the Grey Zone – Stay-at-Home commencing April 8 and in effect until May 6, 2021. At the end of this article, you can find all the conditions of Grey Zone – Stay-at-Home restrictions.
Small businesses are the backbone of our community; they contribute to local charities, support events and sports teams, treat their customers as family, and take pride in being a part of Niagara Falls. Please think of our local merchants and support them during these tough times.
In whatever we do, please practice Physical Distancing, common sense and respect. If you do not feel well, do not go out, stay home. We are in this together and collectively we can overcome this.
