Restaurants are still considered essential in food supply through Take Out & Delivery Options.
Michael's Fine Food responded with this option:
Our chefs have been hard at work the past couple of days and we are very pleased to introduce our new takeout and delivery menu. We have consolidated both Michael’s Fine Food and Spirits & Hamilton Inn’s inventories and are offering favorites from both. Starting tomorrow, we will begin offering take out orders only. The hours are as follows:
Thursday-Friday: 12pm-8pm
Saturday: 4pm-8pm
Sunday: Closed
Beginning next week we will be offering both takeout and delivery during the following hours:
Monday-Friday: 12pm-8pm
Saturday: 4pm-8pm
Sunday: Closed
We have set up an online ordering platform in which the link to can be found on both the Hamilton Inn and Michael’s Fine Food and Spirits websites. Orders may be placed via phone or through our online ordering platform beginning at 8am each day.
We are still offering our entire catering by the tray menu as well but ask for a two day advance notice on any of these orders.
This new menu we are offering exclusively out of our Hamilton Inn location with hopes of offering the same at our Michael’s location sometime soon and put even more of our employees back to work.
We continue to be humbled and deeply moved by the support from all of the surrounding communities and are very anxious to serve you!
