With the reopening of Waterford’s economy, some city centre eateries are hoping for a different approach to dining this summer.
A number of cafe owners want to see designated outdoor dining areas in the city centre.
The call comes as there is still no restart date for indoor dining in restaurants and cafes.
Peter Fowler from the Granary Cafe says parts of the city would be well suited to the measure: “The pandemic is such that I believe that every city and small town really should be concentrating on hubs around the city, totally and utterly administered by the council. They will be there when the pandemic is over.”
