Lizard’s Thicket temporarily closing two locations
June 11, 2020
Lizard’s Thicket on Airport Blvd. in West Columbia and Beltline Blvd. in Columbia will temporarily close on Sunday, June 14, 2020.
Lizard’s Thicket, owned and operated by the Williams family, will temporarily close two of its Columbia-area restaurants located at 2240 Airport Boulevard and 402 Beltline Boulevard on Sunday, June 14, 2020. Employees from these two locations are needed to support the operations at our 12 other Midlands Lizard’s Thicket restaurants due to the lack of applicants willing to fill the available full-time and part-time positions.
While the Airport Blvd. and Beltline Blvd. locations are closed during the summer customers are encouraged to visit the 12 other locations in the Midlands, which are open 7 days a week, 6am – 9pm. A list of the locations can be found at www.lizardsthicket.com/locations. The Williams family will announce a re-opening date in August of this year.
“We are so grateful for our loyal customers who have stuck with us throughout this pandemic, and are excited to see our patrons in the dining rooms again. The COVID-19 virus has caused strain on all aspects of our operations – from food supply to staffing – but we are committed to operating our business as safely and efficiently as possible,” said Bobby Williams, Chairman of Lizard’s Thicket. “Our commitment to our customers always comes first, and this difficult decision has been made with all of our stakeholders in mind. Temporarily closing two locations will allow us to have enough staff to provide our other locations with the excellent service our customers expect.”
Lizard’s Thicket is actively hiring for all positions. Interested candidates are encouraged to visit www.lizardsthicket.com/jobs to learn more about available positions at each location. Candidates are also encouraged to fill out an application on the website.
