Where to find offers, special menus

“It is increasingly difficult to reach our audience to let him know what we provide – especially for the city center simply because there are no channels.” said Dan Freeman, who has four restaurants in downtown Springfield with his wife, Lisa, under the Amichi collective. “There is nothing like an anchor of a kind that forced people to come to the city center like a chick-fil-a where everyone would be there.”

By comparing traffic in its restaurants before Covid to now, Freeman estimated that it was probably down approximately 30%. From 2023 to 2024, traffic was lowered by a two -digit percentage.

“We have noticed that people no longer really eat the same thing,” said Freeman. “Pre-Cuvids liked to go out to eat and sit down, relax all day around lunch. It doesn’t happen anymore. “

Freeman said their lunch crowd was stable, but she has a long way to go to reach pre-priest figures.

In addition to the evolution of habits, restaurants continue to deal with price increases.

“All costs have increased,” said Freeman. “The pre-cuvid costs increased each year at a normal pace, then after all, everything progressed astronomical.”

For example, Freeman said five dozen eggs cost $ 2.30 in 2019. Now, it costs $ 32 – which is not the highest.

When they were asked why they continued to invest in the city center of Springfield, he said they felt like something that the city needs.

“We are the most concentrated area of unique and independent food places,” said Freeman. “We want people who have never been in the city center or who have not been in the city center for five years come to see.”
