Arapahoe Cafe & COVID19

A Cafe amid COVID-19

Please continue to support your local restaurants and businesses in Summit County. We are open at 100% and will let you know of any updates. As with most businesses in Summit, we are searching for staff and service may be affected until we have full staff again.

UPDATE MAY 2021

We are open at 100% capacity as a 5 Star Certified Business. This means:

  • Masks are required unless eating or drinking

  • No distancing requirements

  • All of our tables are back in their normal places!

This also means there will be some changes to TO-GO dining and the waitlist.

  • The Pub is first come first served only. That means you must be present to put your name on the list.

  • We reserve the right to refuse any TO-GO orders when we are too busy to fulfill them.

  • We do not take reservations however if we are on a wait you can add your name to the waitlist over the phone and receive a text message when your table is ready.

Thank you for your understanding! We can’t wait to see you all.


UPDATE 2/14/2021

We can now operate at 50% capacity which is exciting but as always comes with some important details:

  • Masks are required unless eating or drinking

  • All tables are six feet apart

  • No one is allowed to wait for a table inside the building

  • Only two households per table

  • Only 10 people per table

  • All customers must sign in upon arrival for contact tracing purposes

  • 75-minute time limit on all tables

  • All employees are screened daily for covid symptoms

The biggest changes are in bold! Thank you for coming to the Acafe during this time!

UPDATE 12/19/2020

We are so excited to announce we passed the 5 star certification from Summit County Government.

We are now open for dine in at 25% and so happy about it! Please be considerate and work with us with these new restrictions during this time.

Under 5 star restrictions, we have new protocols that include:

  • Tables will be 10’ apart

  • As always, masks are mandatory and enforced

  • Screening for symptoms and recording customer names and contact info to support COVID-19 contact tracing

We are monitoring developments regarding COVID-19 and are following suggested guidelines provided by the Colorado Restaurant Association, Colorado Department of Public Health and U.S. Centers for Disease Control to promote the well being of our guests and staff.

In addition to our normal proper food and drink handling, cleaning and sanitation protocol we are sanitizing menus, check presenters, condiments salt and pepper shakers and other commonly used items in the restaurant as frequently as possible. We are also adding extra cleaning and sanitation to all doorknobs, chairs, tables and other high traffic objects

If employees are not feeling well or showing any symptoms they have been asked to stay home.

We ask for your help in keeping everyone safe and taking precautions for yourself. This includes more frequent hand washing, not sharing utensils or glassware, and proper sneezing and coughing.

If you are not feeling well please consider staying at home.

 

Our goal is to continue to provide our guests with a safe and comfortable dining experience.
