Some bars and breweries will be allowed to reopen May 27, provided they served food before the pandemic as several South Florida cities reopen their restaurant scene. Those bars with food service licenses will be allowed to seat customers again, though they still must restrict capacity to no more than 50 percent and follow all CDC guidelines laid out in the restaurant reopening process.
Venues that are strictly bars and do not have a food service license cannot reopen yet, according to the county’s New Normal plan.
Last week, on May 18, Miami-Dade County allowed restaurants, retail stores and salons to reopen with restrictions. But several municipalities, including Miami, Miami Beach and Hialeah, banded together to delay opening retail until May 20 and restaurants until May 27.
But don’t expect to grab a stool at your favorite watering hole.
Restaurants with a bar area must keep the bar closed during this phase of reopening. Counters will be closed for seating. Bars with restaurant licenses will have to provide seating like a standard restaurant with tables six feet apart, said spokespersons for the county and and Miami Beach.

Despite being capital of European coronavirus cup champion Germany, a question mark looms over Berlin’s world-famous clubbing scene, where thousands used to dance, sweat, and bosh drugs together nightly.
The issue here should be obvious – if you need a clue, it begins with C – so the city’s techno temples are attempting a pivot to that well-known nightclub specialty of… pizza.
Berliner Zeitung reports that a number of popular nightspots are repurposing the opening permit for the food industry to save their own.
Those fortunate enough to have outdoor areas like Sisyphos, Birgit & Bier, and Rummels Bay are mulling a transition to become beer gardens that serve booze and pizza from late afternoon until 10pm.
Music will be played, of course, but sweaty gyrating against a fellow patron is a big no-no as social distancing must still be observed. Guests and staff will be required to wear the now-ubiquitous face mask. Customers must also stay seated in Birgit, with the only reason to get up being “if you have to use the toilet.” Good times.
Owners told the paper that they’re sceptical, but the clubbing industry is facing an existential threat. Current government guidance is for the clubs to return “at the end of the year at the earliest, more likely in 2021”. Whether there will be any left to pick up the torch by then is uncertain.
Ipse boss Tom Szana said: “As a club, you lose your unique selling point. You’re just another beer garden.” But he added that the potential for infection in the industry was too great to do much else. “I would be reluctant to ensure that the numbers increase again and the opening for everyone is therefore delayed.”
For some, it makes no economic sense to open even if they do have open-air space. The Yaam, for example, has 5,000 square metres outdoors. It’d normally have the capacity for 700 people, but only 200 fit under social distancing.
Boss man Geoffrey Vasseur told the Zeitung that he would have to hire more staff to reopen, but then the business would be hit by deferred rents. “We just can’t afford to make any more losses,” he said.
So begins the slow road to recovery in a post corona world…
