COMMON MAN MASKS UP by Erica Auciello Murphy Director of Communications & Community Relations The Common Man family of restaurants in New Hampshire has supported and implemented the use of face masks by staff members since restaurants were mandated to take-out only on March 17 due to the COVID-19 virus. In late April, Common Man founder Alex Ray commissioned the production of more than 67,000 reusable cloth face masks, to distribute to New Hampshire residents free of charge, in partnership with New Hampshire Rotary Clubs.

The Common Man and local Rotary Clubs have been hosting Mask Up NH events across the Granite State, using the Common Man’s antique trolley as a “MaskMobile” to distribute tens of thousands of free cloth masks. As a privately-owned business that puts the health of its staff and guests first, and respects the CDC* and local health department recommendations regarding the wearing of face coverings to prevent the spread of COVID-19, The Common Man family now requires that all guests wear a face mask or cloth face covering when entering and

leaving our establishments and moving about inside. For guests who don’t have a mask or face covering, we are happy to provide one at our host stand. Guests can also learn more about the Mask Up NH initiative here. Thank you for your compliance and understanding of this new mandatory policy. We look forward to serving you soon. *CDC recommendations regarding masks when dining out.
