It has been predicted that 45% of the independent restaurants in this country could permanently close due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are betting that Lancaster will beat those odds due to the historic level of loyalty and support this community has shown for our small business community.

We are calling on that support for Lancaster City Restaurant Week Fall 2020 – September 10 – 20. Like so much of our daily life Restaurant Week will look different this season too. The emphasis will be on ways that you can support your favorite restaurants. You can choose from options to dine indoors with social distancing, enjoy outdoor dining, or order take-out meals. There will also be prompts that show if a restaurant offers gift cards, or branded merchandise for sale. This Restaurant Week season is about helping our culinary community to survive and thrive. We hope you will join us in these efforts.
