Our local restaurants are now limited to serving food through take-out or in an outdoor setting. As most of our businesses are not set up for outdoor dining, the City of Half Moon Bay is looking for sponsors and partners to help us create a one-time outdoor dining area for all of our restaurant’s patrons to enjoy their food. This will take place on the weekend of August 21-23.
