Much of the state entered phase 2 in March, which allowed the reopening of select bars and movie theaters, along with several other venue types. However, Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties were ordered to remain in phase one.
Palm Beach County moved into phase 2 recently. Gov. DeSantis also just announced that Miami-Dade and Broward Counties would also now move into the next phase, putting the entire state in phase 2.

Phase 2 allows indoor restaurants, theaters, and gyms to operate at 50% capacity. Shops can be at full capacity (such as those at Disney Springs), as long as social distancing precautions are in place. However, phase 2 prohibits any social gatherings with more than 50 people.
Disney Springs
Previously in Florida, there was a statewide ban on bars, preventing locations that received 50% or more of their gross revenue from alcohol sales, from opening. However, Florida just issued a new emergency order that will allow bars to reopen at 50% capacity as of Monday, September 14th.
