Downtown Springfield restaurants are joining together to create an unforgettable week of special deals, unique menu items, and incredible flavors from April 6-12! Whether you’re craving tacos, sushi, gourmet dining, or a refreshing açaí bowl—there’s something for everyone! Unlike Dayton’s restaurant week, the sixteen participating downtown eateries will each offer their own special promotions that include discounts, free food and special menus.Organizer Dan Freeman, who with his wife Lisa own La Torte Dolci Bakery, Salato Deli, Crust & Company and Ironworks Waffle Cafe shared that when they moved to Springfield in 2014, the downtown food offerings were pretty slim and together they wanted to work to make Springfield better. So they started by launching their Italian bakery and when the neighboring business went out they added the deli. They were recruited to open a business in Myers Market (formerly Co-Hatch) and thus the pizza business was born.
Freeman meet monthly with other business owners who all agreed that business was down, and patrons weren’t eating out like they had in the past and they needed to find ways to attract patrons to the core of the city. With just under 20 independently owned food businesses in a concentrated area we knew we could work together, so they decided to create restaurant week with support from Visit Greater Springfield.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner specials will be offered all week at the participating food businesses, based on their operating hours. Please check with each business for their hours and check below for the specials they will be offering! Their are some 3 course dinner options, Po-Boy sandwich options, Birria Tacos and even free chocolate from one of the restaurants.
