Central Pa. diner reopens for dine-in service despite stay-at-home orders

The Round the Clock Diner in York has reopened its dine-in restaurant, despite Gov. Tom Wolf’s stay-at-home order.

York County remains in the red phase of Pennsylvania’s reopening plan during the coronavirus pandemic. Even restaurants in counties that enter the yellow phase are still limited to take-out and delivery only, the state’s plan says.

“The reason we opened is obviously to get back to some normalcy,” Christos Sacarellos, a family member of the diner’s owners said.

Sacarellos said the response from customers has been “overwhelmingly awesome” as people are just happy to get out. He said the restaurant is following social distancing guidelines, spacing open tables, limiting the number of guests to less than 20 or 30 percent of the occupancy.

South central.
I’m in East York, just 18mi from the MD line.

Some county sheriffs and some counties, in California and Oregon have recently announced they are not arresting or prosecuting violations of state shut down mandates.

Is York considered central Pennsylvania?

Not in the central PA where I live   ;-)

Round the Clock is on US 30 less than a mile west of the Harley plant.

But Peter Paul Cadbury moved Peppermint Patty production to Mexico years ago.

My local diner in Northampton county has been shut down since this started. Hope he will be able to reopen & that all his employees can pay their rent & mortgages. We have a huge Tea Party here & the frustration is overwhelming.
