bars and restaurants

In 2020 the pandemic sent the entire Ohio restaurant industry into a tailspin. Tens of thousands of Ohio workers were left without jobs and some businesses closed their doors for good. But many of the restaurants that survived are hopeful mass vaccinations and warmer weather could help to turn the tide.

The coronavirus had less time to spread in bars and restaurants because of the curfew, Gov. Mike DeWine says.

Cleveland-area restaurant and bar owners say shortening the state’s curfew by one hour is a sign of hope after a long year for the industry.

Another round of CARES Act funding is on its way to help struggling people, operations and groups affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is asking the state Liquor Control Commission to temporarily cut off the sale of alcohol at bars and restaurants at 10 p.m. and close establishments at 11 p.m. The commission meets Friday morning at 9 a.m. and if approved, the measure would be effective as of Friday night. “We do not want to shut down Ohio bars and restaurants,” DeWine said. “That would be devastating to them, but we do have to take some action and see what kind of results we get.”
