CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – With the third phase of Prince Edward Island’s COVID-19 economic relaunch going into effect today (June 1st), breweries in the province are now allowed to reopen their taprooms to the public, albeit with a number of restrictions in place.
As per the Government of Prince Edward Island‘s “Renew PEI, Together” plan, all restaurants, breweries, cideries and wineries can allow customers to order and consume food and drink onsite for the first time since the pandemic lockdown went into effect.
Food and drink establishments that choose to reopen will have to adhere to a list of regulations issued by the Provincial Department of Health and Wellness, including only allowing PEI residents onto the premises, limiting occupancy to 50 customers or less, having at least 2 metres of distance between tables, and not allowing groups of more than 6 people to sit together.
For more details on specific reopening plans, PEI-based readers are advised to check with their local breweries and brewpubs.
