Arthur DeVitalis, Gold Hill.
Gold Hill Inn
The Gold Hill Inn will open for fine dining and offer takeout beginning Friday, June 5. The restaurant asks the public to call, leave a name and phone number for a reservation. The full menu will be available for those interested, in addition to limited capacity seating.
The Finns, who own the restaurant, released more information via the website on the seating plan and safety precautions in the midst of COVID-19. For dining inside, a 50-person maximum will be upheld each night for three and six-course meals. They will be served in both the front bar room and the dining room so that staff can spread tables and diners out safely. There will be no standing bar service operational.
Servers will all wear facemasks, in addition to upholding a strict hand-washing routine instead of gloves.
Any food preparation in the kitchen will be done with gloves, to be disposed of immediately after use. The restaurant will accept dining reservations Wednesday through Sunday from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., with table seating available until 8 p.m.
Mixologists will serve beer, wine, mixed drinks and an a la carte menu in the side yard of the venue Wednesdays through Sundays. Window service only will be offered here. The side yard will become the new bar area, with space allocated inside the regular bar for seating.
Picnic tables will be supplied, to fit as many as space and distance allow. When tables are full, new guests are not allowed until the table is vacated, cleared and sanitized. No reservations will be available for the side yard. The side yard bar will open at 4:30 p.m. and food starts at 5 p.m., though the food service ends at 7:30pm
All live music has been temporarily halted until further notice.
“We miss you all and look forward to serving you again!” said Owners Brian and Chris to the public.
