For the first time in more than a year, George Lois is seeing familiar faces.
Regular diners are returning to his Gilligan’s Bar & Grill restaurants in Lower Paxton, Swatara and Hampden townships.
“It was nice to see them. Finally, after they get the vaccines two weeks later they had the courage to come out and have a meal,” he said.
“I see a future ahead. I think we are going to be OK. We learn to live with it,” he added.
As COVID-19 mitigation restrictions loosen for Pennsylvania’s restaurant industry starting April 4, owners like Lois are optimistic they will see an uptick in diners pulling up bar chairs and sitting at tables and booths in the coming weeks. They say pent-up demand, additional stimulus money and administration of more vaccines is fueling confidence among diners.
