Bars and nightclubs must close and restaurants can only be open for delivery, pickup and drive-thru services. No in-dining service is allowed.

SAN ANTONIO — When restaurants reopen in a limited capacity on Friday, May 1st, those that have offered alcohol-to-go will be allowed to continue those sales, according to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission.

On Monday, Governor Abbott announced restaurants would be allowed to open, but limit capacity to 25% of their listed occupancy.

TABC confirmed on its website that "restaurants may also continue to use expanded to-go and delivery options" that were put in place after stay home orders were issued.

It's unclear when alcohol-to-go service might end.

"TABC staff is reviewing the governor's report and working with his office to seek further guidance on the specifics of the plan. We will continue updating this page with directives that will help businesses reopen safely under Gov. Abbott's new executive order," TABC states on its website.
