The Silver Spring Arts & Entertainment District and the Greater Silver Spring Chamber of Commerce are building lists of local restaurants and other businesses open to serve customers during the COVID-19 emergency.

The SSAED list includes 53 restaurants with information about take out, delivery or curb side options, the availability of gift cards for sale, and a link to each outlet’s website.

Officials said the restaurants have been contacted directly to submit information, and the list is being updated daily.

The GSSCC broadens its list to include operating information about, in addition to restaurants, fitness studios and centers, hotels, theaters, pet services, florists, auto services and “other retail.”

In a message to the Source, Jane Redicker, the chamber’s president and CEO, wrote that the chamber was opening up their list to all businesses, not just chamber members. Any business owner or manager who would like to be included should contact Courtney at [email protected]

The chamber’s list is current as of noon Friday, March 20 and will be updated as new information is submitted.
