In Raleigh/Wake County, the hospitality industry employs more than 67,000 people—chefs, hotel workers, retailers, tour operators, event planners, caterers, museum staff and many, many others—who make a living serving both visitors and local residents at restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, attractions, sporting events and elsewhere.
Because of COVID-19, canceled gatherings and a loss of revenue, our locally-owned, small businesses need community support more than ever.
One easy way to help: If you can afford it, consider making a purchase from our local restaurants.
Restaurants in the Raleigh area—and across the state—are currently operating with some limitations, most notably that dine-in seating capacity is allowed at just 50% of maximum. This will continue until at least Aug. 7 while the state is under Phase 2 of Governor Roy Cooper's "Safer-at-Home" order (see what else is currently allowed under Phase 2 here).
Many local restaurants in the City of Oaks and beyond have been certified under the Count On Me NC program, a public health initiative that specifically trains businesses to help keep everyone—both employees and guests—safe from COVID-19.
Go to Visit Raleigh for an updated list of restaurants that are open for either dine-in or takeout service, with special note of which restaurants have been Count On Me NC certified. Please note that these openings are subject to change, and it's important to verify with a restaurant before finalizing plans. Due to limited seating capacity, reservations are recommended for most establishments that are offering dine-in service.
