Pa. state liquor stores, including 6 in Centre County, to partially reopen for in-person sales
As parts of Pennsylvania move from the red to “yellow” phase, state liquor stores are gearing up for partial reopening.
The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board announced Wednesday that 77 Fine Wine & Good Spirits will resume limited in-person sales, beginning Friday. Six of those stores are located in Centre County:
- 15 W. Olive St., Snow Shoe
- Hamilton Square Shopping Center, 230 Hamilton Square, State College
- 1682 N. Atherton St., State College
- The Benner Pike Shops, 323 Benner Pike, State College
- Weis Market Shopping Center, 178 Buckaroo Lane, Bellefonte
127 Southridge Plaza, State College
Prior to opening, stores will be sanitized. Glass barriers were installed at registers to ensure the health and safety of staff and customers. Curbside pickup will continue to be offered at reopened locations as staffing permits.
No more than 25 people, including employees, will be permitted in the store at one time. Stricter restrictions could be put in place at smaller stores, and the first hour after opening will be reserved for those who are high-risk for COVID-19.
Customers and staff members must wear facial masks and adhere to social distancing guidelines. Store shelves and equipment will be disinfected regularly, and hours will be altered to allow more time for cleaning and restocking.
Curbside pickup is available at some stores located in “red” counties. Orders can also be made online at FineWineAndGoodSpirits.com.
