The Annex Bar and Grill restaurant in Logan will reopen at 5 p.m. April 1 after being shuttered for a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We’re excited about reopened and getting along with things,” owner Warren Frost said.
He said the restaurant at 101 N. U.S. 54 was undergoing a deep cleaning before reopening.
“We’ve cut back on our menus quite a bit, but we’ll still have prime rib on Friday night and our Mexican food,” he said. “It’s great to have everybody coming back.”
Frost said he was reluctant to reopen until recently because of concerns about “the safety of our employees and the public” during the pandemic.
“Whenever they were allowing people to open back up, I was concerned we weren’t over it yet and didn’t want to incur the expense of opening and shutting again,” he said.
Frost said the county’s low infection numbers and vaccination efforts in recent weeks gave him the confidence to open the Annex’s doors.
“When our numbers in Quay County really went down and I knew that a lot of people in the county and eastern New Mexico and Texas were vaccinated, that made me feel better about things,” he said.
