MEMPHIS, Tennessee —
The coronavirus pandemic has impacted just about every aspect of daily life in Memphis, the United States, and many parts of the world.
In Memphis, the temporary closures include --and this is by no means a comprehensive list--, schools, some prominent churches, zoo, libraries, movie theaters, community centers, and even jail visitations.
While restaurants in Memphis have not been ordered to close like in other cities and entire states, many are adapting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Take-out, curbside pick up, delivery options and specials are being offered by dozens of Memphis area restaurants.
