Let’s face it, COVID-19 has everyone feeling like a little bit crazy. I’ve already been quarantined at home for 2 weeks since my return from Paris and yet this will probably continue for another month or so. Many businesses are struggling to stay open during this time, especially those in the service industry.
As a server myself, I’m currently “unemployed” and don’t know when there’s going to be an end to this. However, what I do know is, there are a lot of ways that we can support local businesses. One of the best ways to do so? Ordering take-out or curbside pick-up from some of our favorite local restaurants!
I know money may be tight for some (trust me, that’s the boat I’m in), but if you can afford to, consider picking up food from your favorite local restaurant for dinner tonight. Not only do you get a delicious meal but they also get to keep their doors open a little bit longer.
While most restaurants have moved to take-out and curbside pick-up these days, I figured I would highlight some restaurants that have gone above and beyond and offered some deals that might entice you to stop by!
- Fox Concepts: Okay, while these concepts may not be 100% local, Fox is a company that’s near and dear to my heart (I work for them after all). And they’re working hard to save you money and pay their employees. They’re currently offering 35% off all to-go and curbside pick-up orders online. On top of this, their concepts are offering 50% off beer and wine with the purchase of to-go food
- Clever Koi: Ever have their ramen? No? Well now is your chance. You can enjoy 25% off all to-go and curbside pick-up orders. Plus they have family-style (feeds up to 4) + date night (feeds 2) menu options
- LGO: La Grande Orange has curated packages for you to pick up at their curbside pick-up. This ranges from breakfast to salads to go to wine and pizza packages.
- Morning Squeeze: Don’t want to miss out on brunch during quarantine? Morning Squeeze has you covered with $10 breakfast options (eggs, potatoes, and fruit or french toast) and coffee, $10 to-go mimosa kits, and family-style meals starting at $40
- POMO: 30% off to-go and delivery orders
- The Porch: The Porch is offering 35% all to-go orders along with 50% off all wine, beer, and white claws with food purchase

They are offering free delivery in UberEats, $25 date night-in packages, $45 kickback packages, $30 for 2 bottles of wine, and $25 bottle and board on Mondays and Tuesdays. They’re also donating meals to No Kid Hungry!

- Joyride Taco: I can’t imagine a life without tacos. Luckily, I don’t have to. Joyride is offering Build Your Own Taco Kits starting at $15, $25 to-go margarita kits, and $2 tacos on Tuesday
- ChopShop: All ChopShop locations are open for pick-up and delivery. Get free delivery on orders over $20 using code CHOPCARES. If you would rather pick-up or use curbside delivery, use code DISTANCING for $5 off orders over $20
- Worth Takeaway: Worth has some tasty sandwiches which you can enjoy for pick-up. Use the code BESTFRIENDS to get $5 off any order of $20+ or buy a $50 gift card and get an extra $10 to enjoy when things die down a bit
While I’m sure there are many other restaurants offering deals, these are just a few of my favorites. Remember to support local businesses as much as possible at this time – the smallest effort helps! X
