In pictures: What dining out post-lockdown looks like
May 26, 2020
With coronavirus lockdowns starting to lift across the world, restaurants are reopening. Social distancing measures and protection for staff mean it all looks very different.
Will eating out ever be the same again after COVID-19? As lockdowns start to ease around the world, restaurants are reopening – but with a very different look and feel to before the coronavirus pandemic.
Restaurateurs and café owners are among those who have borne the economic brunt of stay-at-home policies. Many are desperate to reopen to save their businesses from bankruptcy, but rules on social distancing mean they are having to rethink how they serve their customers - from tables fitted with screens to staff wearing visors and facemasks to individual dining pods.
Here's how restaurants around the world are responding.
Together but apart: Diners eat lunch at a reopened noodle restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand, separated by a screen.
Eating pods: People trialling ‘quarantine greenhouses’ at a waterside restaurant in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Coffee culture: A barista in facemask, visor and gloves prepares a cappuccino at a café in Belgrade, Serbia.
Making up for lost time: Customers celebrating the easing of lockdown restrictions at a restaurant in Hanoi, Viet Nam.
Still going: Staff prepare online orders at Ben’s Chili Bowl, Washington DC, US. The restaurant has remained open for 62 years and has served two former Presidents: Barack Obama and George W. Bush.
