Picnic tables are located on the Town Common, Needham Heights Common and Eaton Square (plaza between Needham Bank and Needham Center commuter rail tracks).
Tables are spaced apart to allow for social distancing and will be available on a firstcome, first-served basis to restaurant patrons.
Patrons may take their food and beverages, including alcohol purchased as part of a meal, to any of the outdoor tables. Alcohol may not be consumed outside of the designated areas. Trash barrels will be available at each location for disposal of takeout items, and the public is required to throw out and clean their area when they have finished their meals. Tables may not be relocated. The outdoor area closes to the public at 11 pm every evening.
