Consumers looking for a bite to eat while they travel this Fourth of July are in luck, as they will have plenty of options.
While banks and post offices will be closed on July 4th, that is not the case for restaurants, as most national chains, whether fast food or sit-down, will be open on the holiday, as will a majority of grocery stores.
The origins of the Fourth of July date back to when Philadelphians marked the first anniversary of American independence with a "spontaneous celebration," which is described in a letter by John Adams to his daughter, Abigail, according to the Library of Congress.
However, the annual observation of the holiday only became a regular occurrence after the War of 1812, where events such as groundbreaking ceremonies for the Erie Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were scheduled to coincide with Fourth of July festivities. Congress passed a law making Independence Day a federal holiday on June 28, 1870.
Here's what you need to know about restaurants and whether or not they'll be open on the Fourth of July.
