Stonewall Kitchen Announces Company Store Re-Openings and Curbside Café Service

YORK, Maine, May 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading specialty foods and home goods producer Stonewall Kitchen announced the reopening of their Camden, ME, Nashua, NH, North Conway, NH, Portsmouth, NH, Rochester, NH, and South Windsor, CT Company Stores. For the safety of all guests and staff, store capacity has been limited and safety precautions have been implemented, as outlined by each state's economic reopening plans, in order to support healthy business operations. 

Additionally, the Stonewall Kitchen Café in York, Maine is now offering curbside pickup, with a limited menu, just by calling (207) 351-2719. The service will be offered Monday-Friday for both breakfast (8 a.m.-10:30 a.m.) and lunch (11 a.m.-3 p.m.). Guests may simply call in to place their orders and pay over the phone. Upon arrival, guests can call again and their orders will be delivered to their vehicles.

"We're opening carefully and thoughtfully," states John Stiker, CEO of Stonewall Kitchen. "Our first priority remains the continued safety and health of our associates and guests. We have implemented various safety measures in our stores, including mandatory face coverings for staff and guests, markings on the floor for social distancing, no more than 50% capacity, and plexiglass partitions at the registers. We have also ceased sampling in our stores and have established enhanced cleaning protocols that follow CDC guidance related to cleaning and disinfecting. Furthermore, while the stores are open for walk-in guests, we are encouraging guests to utilize our call-ahead, pay-ahead curbside pickup in select stores to minimize contact and maintain social distancing. All stores, with the exception of Camden, are offering the curbside service."
