With lockdown restrictions being eased, it’s almost time to reconsider the countdown to the successful opening of Cafes, Bars, Restaurants & Members Clubs in the Dartmouth Area. With strict social distancing measures in place, small operators have tough choices to make when reopening with a 2 metre distancing in place. With good weather & summer conditions forecast it is now time to lobby local authorities & licence writers to allow these smaller businesses to open up and sensibly operate with a fair chance of success with limited outdoor seating for customers keen to spend their earnings at a local level whilst aiding town economic recovery and the survival of these important little iconic places.
