Two Dick's Drive-In locations have closed after two employees tested positive for COVID-19.
The beloved fast food chain announced Tuesday to customers that both locations would remain closed indefinitely. The outbreak began at their Kent location, which closed on the afternoon of Oct. 31 after an employee tested positive for COVID-19.
The location reopened on Nov. 1 with staff from the Queen Anne outpost, but another positive test from Kent staff has caused the company to close both the Kent and Queen Anne locations temporarily and quarantine staff.
"All employees exposed to this new positive case will quarantine immediately. We will be working closely with public health on next steps and will update you as soon as we know more," wrote the company in a statement.
The other five locations are still open with regular hours.

to Dick's, summer or winter. Those were the days! I'm glad to hear that that location is
still open!
