Yes and no: The sooner we move out of the yes and no or 1 and 0 era, the better. It all depends on how we define safety. Distancing and wearing a mask should help if talking about COVID. Otherwise use your instincts as it is likely that with a large group meeting during a pandemic the anxiety level will be high. Distancing will always help, unfortunately not sustainable.

COVID 19: It may be difficult to socially distance and wear a mask when eating indoors with a large number of people. Being outdoors is safer, especially if there is wind. Can't tell you that this is totally safe. Take care.
