Today is day five where WisDOT has still not done anything to help Rescued Roasters during construction. Day five of 50% of normal sales. If Governor Evers and WisDOT Secretary Boardman won’t support small businesses in Milwaukee, then let’s please step up and support Rescued Roasters and Knights Popcorn at 4435 W. Forest Home Ave. (open Monday through Thursday from 7am-5pm; 7am-6pm Friday; 9am-3pm Saturday).
