The hospitality industry continues to face a tough battle as coronavirus restrictions continue to change across the UK.
Following the introduction of the tiered system – which categorises areas in England as either ‘medium’, ‘high’, or ‘very high’ risk – sees those under the strictest measures will see the biggest change.
Earlier this week the government announced that Liverpool would be placed into Tier 3 lockdown rules which enforces bans on mixing and forces closure of some venues.
In Tier 2, a ban on socialising outside your household indoors is in place, while in Tier 1 the national curfew and ‘rule of six’ are in place.
But what does all this mean for pubs and bars?
As the Mirror reports, the current national restrictions include the rule of six on indoor and outdoor gatherings and the 10pm closing time for pubs, bars and restaurants.
But this changes in the areas with the highest restrictions.
