Restaurant Brands International CEO José Cil explained their decision in an open letter: "As we read all the stories about our communities reopening, all of the focus is understandably on ways to continue to keep us apart. But one of the most normal things in our lives is coming together."
He continued, "And that often includes sitting down with your family or friends and enjoying a meal together at a restaurant."
Cill also explained some changes to expect at these reopenings.
"We have fully embraced the notion that parts of our restaurants need to change – certainly, for the foreseeable future and possibly forever," he writes.
His statement continues, "For instance, while we have mandated masks and gloves in the short-term, our brand and operations teams are now evaluating more comfortable and reusable masks that may become part of our standard uniforms."
The newly reopened dining rooms will reflect social distancing requirements, and they have increased cleaning measures as well in order to keep guests healthy: "We are now moving into the next phase of reopening dining rooms according to guidance from local authorities and will be welcoming back millions of guests to dine-in at our convenient locations.”
