CHICAGO (WLS) -- As Chicago re-imposes COVID-19 restrictions on bars, restaurants and other businesses, Guthrie's Tavern in Lakeview has announced they will close permanently.

The bar announced it will close for good on Thursday after operating for the last 34 years in the 1300-block of West Addison Street.

"With the new restrictions set today for bars and the ongoing COVID restrictions, we don't see a way we can survive," Guthries Tavern wrote in a Facebook post Monday evening.

The corner tavern has a very special meaning to many. Meredith Weber and her husband fell in love there. Ten years later they are hoping to make back on closing day.

"Actually, I was just walking by and trying to figure out how we were going to do that," Weber said. "We now have a four year old and see if we can make it back for old times and good memories."

Mayor Lightfoot and Chicago public health officials announced Monday restrictions on bars, restaurants, gyms and other businesses will be reimposed amid a recent uptick in cases.
