Blaktober is here!
Don't miss out on this special opportunity to support a black-owned restaurant during the month of October.
Last year, Jeremy Joyce wanted to find a way to spotlight black-owned businesses that were negatively impacted by the pandemic. The Black People Eats founder decided to organize a virtual food festival to "bring awareness to restaurants and increase revenue."
This month, several restaurants will provide discounts to customers who patronize their business every weekend. When you place your order, you must say “Blacktober special" to receive your discount.
