Restaurants and bars in West Virginia will be able to open at full capacity as long as social distancing between groups can be maintained beginning at midnight, Gov. Jim Justice decided Friday.

Before the new executive order, restaurants and bars had to operate at 75% capacity. However, the requirement that groups must still be 6 feet apart will cause most of these establishments to operate at less than 100% capacity. No standing room will be allowed and businesses must still follow COVID-19 safety guidelines.
