(Austin, TX)  —  Texas restaurants may be able to sell alcoholic beverages for take-out and delivery even after the pandemic is over, and possibly from now on.

Gov. Greg Abbott tweeted Tuesday night, “Alcohol-to-go sales can continue after May 1st.”  He added that “we may just let this keep on going forever.”  Under Abbott’s latest order, restaurants can reopen Friday at 25% capacity.

The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission says the order allows restaurants to keep offering beer and liquor for take-out and delivery, which they weren’t allowed to do before restrictions were placed on them to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
