The hospitality industry has welcomed customers back indoors since Monday this week (May 17) after the next stage of the ‘roadmap’ meant that coronavirus restrictions were further relaxed.

Our freelance photographer John Aron visited a number of pubs and restaurants in Louth on Monday evening, where customers enjoyed finally being able to get inside for a meal or a few drinks, for the first time in several months.

The easing of restrictions also means that ‘cautious’ hugs are now allowed, and non-essential international travel has been able to resume.

The new rules also mean that visits to cinemas, theatres and sports venues are back on the agenda, and larger numbers can attend family events like weddings and funerals.
