"All Fix locations are temporarily closed until further notice," the post reads. The Fix has locations in Marlborough and Leominster in addition to its flagship location at 108 Grove St., Worcester. The shutdown is the second for the Worcester and Leominster locations in little more than a month.
The Leominster location closed on Monday (below) because of COVID-19 and remains closed.
The Worcester location closed shortly before lunch on Wednesday, according to a Facebook post at 11:04 a.m. yesterday.
"With new information received today, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close all three Fix locations," yesterday afternoon's post reads. "We are asking our Fix teams to get tested and when we reach a safe level of staffing, we will return to normal hours of operation."
The Worcester and Leominster locations each closed temporarily in December because of COVID-19. The Worcester location closed on Dec. 1, the Leominster location on Dec. 13.
Other Niche Hospitality restaurants - Mezcal and Bocado - remain open, according to Niche.
