Wondering how to enjoy some newfound freedoms this weekend? So were we. So, we compiled this list of how local restaurants are handling the new 50-percent capacity guidelines, arranged by town and alphabetical order.

Midland Bistro is just one restaurant that has rearranged its tables to meet requirements.

How did you make the list?
We put out a poll on our Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as the Facebook page for the Moore County service industry. We also made a lot of calls.

How did you miss our favorite / my restaurant?
The short answer is we’re human. But we’re happy to add anyone who wants to be on the list. Email us at hello@itsthesway.com
