One of the last places I dined before they started shutting down the island! Let’s hope they can begin opening the island safely and bring some normality back to St Martin!

Restaurants, cafes and shops are eligible if they have decreased their employees hours or have shut down all together due to Corona-19. Last edited by dmwieser; 05/02/2020 08:39 AM.

As a result of those meetings, some lockdowns will be lifted. St Barth has been more forthcoming with information from that meeting than St Martin. The lockdown on St Barth will be lifted on May 11, including the restaurants. The airport will remain closed, so no outsiders can come in. Just like St Martin, details on what that means for restaurants have not yet been spelled out, but will be before May 11. The "partial activity scheme" may be "chômage partiel", or partial unemployment. Read below to find more than you ever want to know about chômage partiel. https://www.thelocal.fr/20200430/chomage-partiel-how-to-access-temporary-unemployment-in-france
