SHOREWOOD, IL — If you were thinking of bar hopping along West Jefferson Street this weekend, there's two bars that won't be open amid the pandemic. In addition to a five-day shutdown at Longshots in Joliet, Bedrocks in Shorewood is closing its doors to patrons.

On Friday, Bedrocks posted on social media that one of its workers has the coronavirus and that "from an abundance of caution, we have decided to close Bedrocks immediately until all employees have been tested and the entire venue can be sanitized."
