Phase 3 Inn Restaurant, Lounge & Cafe Information – Posted 6/29/2020 @ 4:30pm
Phase 3 Announcement for everyone’s safety
We hope you had an enjoyable weekend and we are looking forward to serving you at the Inn and Café this 4th of July week.
Starting this Thursday, July 2nd, we’ll be opening the Restaurant, Patio, and Lounge with Phase 3 requirements in place. Café is open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We request your patience with your servers as we work through all the changes. Here’s what changes at the Inn:
- To accommodate the increase in capacity at the Restaurant, Patio and Lounge, the only entrance will be in the back (lakeside) entrance. The front door will remain locked so go to the lakeside entrance for Check In.
- Due to the anticipated increase in diners, we will not have the staffing levels necessary to continue our curbside service, however, you can still call ahead for takeout. Available for pickup at the lakeside window.
- We’re relaxing the timetables for dining from 5:00 to 7:30 pm. Reservations can be made by emailing FOH@lakelimerick.com up to 4pm on your requested day.
Walk ins will be welcome, however, priority will go to people who have made a reservation. We will do our best to answer your phone calls during dining hours.
- The Restaurant can accommodate seating for 28 people at a time. We encourage tables of more than 4 to schedule a reservation to guarantee seating.
- The Lounge can accommodate seating for 14 and opens at 4pm for Check In with no reservations required.
- Patio seating is properly spaced to accommodate 6-foot social distancing.
- We’ve opened the lawn with picnic tables that do not require reservations. These tables will not have direct table-side service but will be available to use the lakeside pickup window to utilize self-service for food and drinks (like ordering food at a food truck or drinks at a beer garden). The weather should be perfect this weekend for a fun experience by all.
Once again, we’re now in Phase 3 with several rules remaining unchanged for us to stay in business during Washington’s Safe Start Program.
- All employees are required to wear a mask and gloves.
- All tables and chairs need to be sanitized after each guest has completed enjoying their meal and beverages.
- All customers need to be screened with their temperatures taken. If a customer has a temperature at or above 100.4 degrees, they will be asked to go home.
- All customers are required to wear a mask when away from the table and when ordering food from a server or placing or picking up an order at the pickup window.
We know that the last rule has been a tough one for members to follow, however, the fact is that we cannot be open without 100% compliance from our community members. It’s not only a statewide law to wear a mask in public gatherings, it’s proven by medical professionals to help prevent the spread of disease to our employees and fellow members.
We appreciate your understanding and hope you all have a wonderful dining experience this weekend.
Message from Chef Josh:
Reservations are strongly recommended during Phase 3. We will do our best to accommodate walk ins, however priority will go to people who planned ahead making a reservation. Making reservations has many benefits. When we know how many people we need to feed at a given time, we can better plan for your kitchen and waitstaff needs. Customers who make reservations don’t have to wait in long lines or deal with unpredictable wait times. A reservation-only approach can help us precisely plan the layout of the dining room for the best experience.
We will be offering reservations with availabilities between 5:00 and 7:30. We will properly distribute the reservations amongst our open times to not only keep you safe, but to also provide top notch service and deliver your food in a timely manner.
You can make reservations by emailing FOH@lakelimerick.com until 4pm on the day you are dining. Thank you for your patronage and hope you dine with us soon.
