Staff Member At New Hampshire Restaurant Tests Positive For COVID

RAYMOND, NH — A favorite restaurant in Raymond is one of the many businesses hit by Coronavirus.

According to Tuckaway Tavern's social media post on July 28, 2020: "Unfortunately one of our staff members just reported they have tested positive for COVID. They have not been in the building since being tested or since they started experiencing symptoms, however, as a precaution we are CLOSED effective immediately until we completely disinfect and take all necessary precautions to keep both the rest of our staff and the public safe."

In a previous post, the restaurant said "For those inquiring, the employee was a bartender on the restaurant side (fully masked) whose last shift was Sunday. They were also here Friday of last week. They had chest tightness yesterday, were tested immediately + reported their positive test results to us moments before our post."

Tuckaway Tavern in Raymond has been featured on national TV shows and become a popular destination for locals and people who travel long distances due to its popularity.

The restaurant is one of many restaurants nationwide who have had to deal with new guidelines due to Coronavirus. Restaurants in New Hampshire in several parts of the state including Raymond have been forced to operate at 50 percent seating capacity.

Tuckaway stresses they will reopen, and suggest people follow the updates on their Facebook page.
