BALTIMORE (WJZ) – The Restaurant Association of Maryland projects 25% of restaurants will close permanently as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.
“We’re losing some longtime restaurants that have been a staple in the community,” Marshall Weston, President and CEO of the Restaurant Association of Maryland, said. “This crisis has gone on much longer than anyone has anticipated and, quite frankly, restaurants are running out of money.”
Weston said 45% of the state’s restaurants are currently closed, either because they have not shifted to the take-out model or they are closed for good.
“I think restaurants need to know what the timeline is to reopen,” Weston said. “The pressures that restaurants are going to feel during this transition process are going to be immense.”
City Café in Mount Vernon and Ryleigh’s Oyster in Federal Hill each announced permanent closures within the past week.
