New Year’s Eve celebrations look different this year, but some local restaurants are offering takeout specials and prix fixe menus to welcome 2021.
What a year! 2020 is coming to a close, and Delaware’s restaurants are ready to celebrate—in a safe way. Staying out at your favorite local establishment all night isn’t in the cards this year while the state’s current COVID-19 guidelines require local bars and restaurants to close by 10 p.m. Instead, consider grabbing dinner earlier in the evening or food to-go for when you watch the ball drop at midnight from the comfort of your home.
