An Act extending pandemic-related relief for dining establishments
This bill extends pandemic-related relief for dining establishments in Massachusetts by delaying the expiration of certain rules until April 1, 2024. Specifically, it updates the deadline for allowing restaurants to deliver alcoholic beverages, which was previously set to end on April 1, 2023. The law also adjusts the timeline for when restaurants must stop accepting reservations for in-person dining. These changes aim to provide additional time for the restaurant industry to adapt to ongoing public health restrictions.
