Wayland's Coach Grill Reopens With New Renovations

WAYLAND, MA — Wayland's Coach Grill reopened on Wednesday for dining service for the first time since March. The nearly 100-year-old restaurant used the coronavirus-related closure to make upgrades.

The restaurant reopens with a number of changes to prevent the spread of coronavirus. Diners will use disposable menus and pay using a tablet placed at the table. Staff will undergo health checks and wear masks.

The restaurant has renovated the interior of the restaurant. But for now, diners will be served in a 12-table tent located outside the restaurant. To start, the Coach Grill will be open Wednesday through Saturday from 4:30 to 10 p.m. The restaurant is also offering take out and delivery.

The Tavistock Restaurant Group owns Coach Grill and 16 other restaurants across the U.S., including in states like Florida and California, where coronavirus cases are surging.

Like most other towns and cities in Massachusetts, Wayland has been granting outdoor dining approvals to local restaurants. The Local and Giacomo's were the first to be approved when phase two of the reopening plan began in early June.
