Our COVID-19 Policy
Here at The Buxton Inn the safety of our staff and customers is paramount and to ensure that, we have put new critical policy and procedures in place.

As our promise against coronavirus to you, we have introduced and implemented the following 9 steps to keep you safe at all times whilst visiting The Buxton.

  • Social Distancing - We have implemented social distancing rules across the pub, with visual reminders to enforce the 1-metre distance rule as well as markers on the floor.
  • Track & Trace - By LAW customers MUST either scan a QR reader code on entry and fill out the secure on-line form or if unable to scan code will be asked to complete a manual form which will be kept secure for 21 days. Both the above forms of track & trace require your Full Name; Contact Number, Email address and date of visit. We also have the New NHS Test & Trace QR code.This will assist with the NHS Test & Trace scheme and help to contain the spread of COVID-19. We will only share your contact details with the NHS Test & Trace if required and WILL NOT share or use your details for any other purpose.
  • Sanitisation - We have hand sanitisation stations both on entry to The Buxton and within pub the environment as well as on the bar for both staff and customers to use. We ask that everyone uses these upon entering and leaving the building. We are cleaning all public areas regularly and key areas are sanitised frequently. Toilets will be checked every 30 minutes and all touch surfaces will be sanitised. The toilet doors will be propped open to minimise contact points.
  • Table Service - It is full table service when in the pub and restaurant, and we ask customers to kindly remained seated and a member of staff will take your order and payment at the table and bring your drinks to you.
  • Risk Assessments - Risk assessments will be carried out regularly to ensure we are abiding by the set government guidelines.
  • Protective Equipment - We have installed protective equipment on the bar and provided staff with the appropriate personal protective equipment.
  • Face Masks - Must be worn on Entry to the building and when moving around. Face masks do not have to be worn when seated.
  • Regular Reviews - The procedures we have implemented will be regularly reviewed in accordance with government guidelines.
  • Routine Staff & Customer Checks - All staff returning to work will be self monitoring for COVID-19 symptoms and both staff and customers will be randomly checked by means of a non contact digital thermometer.
