On Friday, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker announced that the state would move forward with phase two of its reopening plan today, June 22, advancing into part 2 of step 2 just 10 days after the phase officially began.

The biggest part of this phase is that indoor dining is now allowed, with many restrictions.

Businesses on the North Shore are deciding how best to approach this new order. With this video below, The Castle: a Board Game Café in Beverly is one of the first to announce their plans for keeping diners safe during this transition.

Here is a list of all the businesses currently allowed to be open right now under Phase 2, and here’s a look at what restaurants need to do to safely offer indoor dining.
