Restaurants, bars and cafes would be allowed to serve customers outdoors permanently under a plan that would make the rules designed to help restaurants stay afloat amid the COVID-19 pandemic an enduring part of Chicago’s food scene.
During the summer of 2020, city officials launched a pilot program that closed off six streets around the city to traffic and allowed local restaurants to expand their operations to offer socially distanced, outdoor seating options. In 2021, former Mayor Lori Lightfoot moved to extend the program as the pandemic continued to rage, offering eateries a lifeline.
The proposal would allow eateries with a permit allowing their customers to chow down inside their establishment to apply for a permit to allow them to also dig in outside — as long as the restaurant has the support of the ward’s alderperson. Taverns and bars could also apply, but only after partnering with a restaurant to feed their patrons, according to the measure.
