Social distancing has been in place for quite some time now, but just because businesses like yours are starting to reopen, does not mean that social distancing is any less important. When you do reopen your business, be sure that your social distancing policy is published and posted somewhere where each guest can see it. This can be difficult in bar atmospheres, but difficult does not mean impossible! You should also know that a failure to enforce social distancing can not only get you into the bad books of possible customers, but you may also find yourself in the court system facing charges for breaking state regulations and putting your patrons in danger.
Will enforcing social distancing mean fewer people in the bar? Yes, but it will also mean a safer environment, not being singled out by the local press for breaking rules and regulations, and not having to face the backlash and loss of business that will result when you become the target of a tragic news story.
