Nearly 20 bars and restaurants in Allegheny and Westmoreland counties received violations from the state police last month for violating pandemic-related mitigation measures, records show.
For more than a year, bars and restaurants have faced some degree of restriction – measures meant to slow the spread of covid-19.
Many of those restrictions were loosened early this month, with prohibitions on bar seating and alcohol sales sans food being lifted along with the 11 p.m. alcohol curfew. Establishments that complete an online self-certification process can operate at 75% capacity; otherwise, the limit is 50%.

More Lehigh Valley bars are cited for alleged COVID violations, and it’s not the first time for some
Updated 8:16 AM;
Pennsylvania State Police this week announced citations issued in March against liquor-license holders for alleged violations of state measures aimed at stemming the spread of COVID -19.
Cases of the coronavirus illness have continued to trend upwards over the past few weeks, with 3,893 new cases reported statewide Thursday, bringing the seven-day rolling average up to 4,073 new cases per day the highest point since Feb. 4.
The citations come as Pennsylvania, effective Sunday, April 4, loosens some COVID-19 restrictions on indoor dining, gyms and entertainment facilities. For the first time since the pandemic began, restaurants can increase their indoor dining capacity to 75%, serve drinks without food, re-open bar seating as long as it is socially distanced and push last call back from 11 p.m.
