New York is once again the city that never sleeps.

On Monday night, the midnight curfew was lifted for bars and restaurants, and comedy clubs quickly started to return to full swing, CBS2’s Ai Bauman reported.

“It’s kind of what we’ve been waiting for,” bartender Richard McNulty said.

McNulty, who works at 3 Sheets Saloon on West Fourth Street, said he is thrilled the COVID-19-era midnight curfew for indoor dining is no longer in effect.
