Don't forget if you are on island this week that you can't buy alcohol until 4pm (if my memory is correct it might be 4:30pm) on Good Friday You may drink your own alcohol purchased before, you just can't buy it at any restaurant, bars, grocery stores etc.

Pia, I recall from last year that we could get beer or wine in a restaurant but not a mixed drink.

The letter of the law does not allow selling or dispensing 'distilled spirits' - beer and wine are fermented spirits - but If I was a restaurant owner I wouldn't want to have that conversation with DLCA officers on Friday.
