The long-awaited re-opening as lockdown restrictions ease is almost here.
From Monday, the hospitality sector can serve alcohol outdoors, and only until 10:00pm.
Businesses have bene busy preparing their beer gardens and outdoor areas in preparation for their first customers after months of being closed.
Many have reported a huge number of bookings for tables, but some are operating a ‘first come, first served ’policy, and there are some with two-hour limits.
