Universal Orlando Resort said Tuesday it will reopen CityWalk this week.

The attraction will open May 14 with operating hours of 4 p.m. to 10 p.m.

There will be limited menus at the restaurants that open and guidelines for workers and guests, including face coverings and temperature checks. If a guest has a temperature of 100.4 degrees or higher, they will not be allowed to enter, Universal said.

Employees will also be required to wear face coverings and undergo temperature checks.

Restaurants that will open include Auntie Anne’s Pretzels, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. Restaurant and Market, Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville, Red Oven Pizza Bakery and Voodoo Doughnut.

Each will have a limited menu and limited seating. Tables and chairs will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use.

Shops that are opening include Airbrush, the Universal Studios Store, select merchandise carts and the retail store inside Hart & Huntington Tattoo Company. Nightclubs, the Blue Man Group, and the Cinemark movie theater will remain closed for now.

Universal’s website says self-parking will be free, but valet service will not be available.

Universal’s theme parks and hotels will remain closed through at least May 31.
