Indoor Dining Resumes in Wildwood This Weekend

Shore News Network

WILDWOOD, NJ – The Wildwoods, NJ restaurants and eateries can once again welcome customers to step inside their establishments to enjoy dining starting on Friday, September 4.

“We are very happy to see indoor dining return for the big Labor Day holiday weekend and the Wildwoods’ ‘Second Season’,” said Greater Wildwoods Tourism Improvement and Development Authority (GWTIDA) Executive Director/CFO John Siciliano. “As the days gets shorter and the air gets cooler, indoor dining offers an enjoyable way to experience our oceanside destination.”

At their discretion, restaurant owners who meet the criteria set forth by city officials can offer indoor seating at 25% capacity and with proper social distancing while adhering to state health protocols and sanitizing procedures. Patrons are asked to wear masks unless they are eating, are under the age of 2, or have documented health issues that prohibit the wearing of a mask. They must also maintain six feet distance between each other and their tables; and are encouraged to call ahead to check availability and to allow for greater control of customer traffic.
