Customers should be warned that no walk-ins will be allowed on the opening weekends.
Gary McManus, managing director at The McManus Pub Company, said: “We’re thrilled to be opening our doors again.
"We’ve been working really hard to ensure that when we reopen our pubs are as safe as possible.

Every member of staff has completed in-house and online training to ensure they fully understand how to deliver a safe, fun and friendly experience in each pub.
All of the pubs in the portfolio have been redesigned with safe distancing in mind and every site will be actively monitored to ensure that guidelines are being followed.
The family-run group, which started in March 1970 with the Thomas 'A' Becket public house in St James, is also celebrating its 50th year in business in 2020.
