The owners say that after 49 years in business, and instead of “doing the alternative as many other businesses have done,” Mr. Lemon will now only open three days a week — Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

“We know you will understand our situation,” the owners wrote on social media. “We love you and your families.”

The popular summer shop will open from noon to 7 p.m. The change will start this week.
