Georgia bars and nightclubs can reopen June 1 but with strict capacity limits (Via EaterAtlanta)
to reopen for business on Monday, June 1. Like restaurants across the state, bars must follow 39 mandatory safety requirements in order to reopen, including screening workers for COVID-19 symptoms, limiting capacity to 25 people or 35 percent of total occupancy, allowing parties of no more than six people, and only serving drinks within designated areas or to seated patrons. It appears the COVID-19 requirements for Georgia’s restaurants open for dine-in service will also continue.
During the Thursday afternoon press conference, the governor extended Georgia’s public health emergency through July 12 and urged people to wear masks in public. He also increased public gatherings from ten to 25 people, as long as groups continue to follow social distancing guidelines of six feet or more between individuals not members of the same household.
“We strongly encourage all Georgians and visitors to wear face coverings to help mitigate viral spread, and restrictions remain intact for nearly every Georgia business.”over what reopening will mean for their businesses, especially with the anticipated state-mandated capacity limits, social distancing measures, and the lack of ability to offer substantial takeout options due to Georgia’s strict liquor laws.
“It’s a super absurd situation to be in, which is why many folks have already gone out of business,” Alphonzo Cross, owner of Castleberry Hill cocktail den , told Eater. “Restaurants can do takeout, but people don’t exactly drink by way of takeout. They don’t experience a cocktail by takeout.” worries bars won’t be able to sustain enough business while following the mandatory and “yet necessary” measures needed to keep staff and patrons safe.
