HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. – Bars and other alcoholic beverage establishments, can reopen as long as they stay within the parameters of the State’s phase two reopening plan. Indoor capacity is capped at 50%, everyone must be seated at tables, and the same physical-distancing rules for restaurants apply to bars and breweries.
Back in June, bars and breweries were forced to shutter their doors for a second time during the pandemic.
Bars and breweries had been closed since the end of June when the state forces businesses that don’t serve food to stop serving alcohol for consumption on its property. However, last week, Governor Ron DeSantis rescinded that order and will allow the Phase 2 reopening.
