(News 12 at 11) AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT)– The water crisis is inconvenient for families and it’s not good for businesses around Waynesboro.
Some restaurants are having to cook with bottled water.
Burke perk is just one of several restaurants trying to stay open to serve their customers.
Many places bought bottled water, plastic silverware and paper plates just to keep everything sanitary.
The owner at Brown’s Quality Seafood is doing all she can to stay open.
Burke Perk and Brown’s both found a way to keep their doors open.
"We probably bought and had on hand about 25 gallons to start off with," Barton said.
They’re using bottled and gallon water to both cook and serve as drinking water.
Other local favorites like Good Day Cafe and Lakeview Restaurant are closed.
Brown’s Quality Seafood is trying to stay open, but will have to make a run for more water.
