Bottomless Appetizers At Buffalo Wild Wings

June 27, 2025 By Dayton937

Buffalo Wild Wings has just launched a new Bottomless Apps deal, available for dine-in only. Starting today, you can dig into endless rounds of two apps at a time, which starts at $9.99 for the table. That’s right, you’ll be getting their fan-favorite appetizers such as Fried Pickles, Mozzarella Sticks, Onion Rings, Chips & Salsa, and Hatch Queso.

When you order “Bottomless Apps,” you’ll receive unlimited rounds of appetizers. The only catch is that you can only order two appetizers at time. It’s important to note that price points may change based on how many are in your party and which state you live in (for example, California, Hawaii, or New York could implement slight price increases). This deal only applies to parties of four, with additional costs for more than four guests. There’s currently no end date for this initiative and it’s only available in participating locations within the franchise.

Gather to Transform into Lucho, a Mezcal-Fueled Taco Bar

June 27, 2025 By Dayton937

After two remarkable years as the first food and beverage company to open inside the recently revitalized Dayton Arcade, Gather—owned by Shane Anderson—is ready for its next evolution. Anderson is joining forces with Charlie Carroll and Hospitalité Group to temporarily close Gather and reimagine the space as Lucho, a bold burrito, taco, mezcal, and espresso bar, set to reopen in July.

While Gather will soon undergo a full transformation, the spirit of what made it special remains. From its earliest days, Gather became more than just a café—it was the heartbeat of the Arcade’s mornings. Known for its thoughtful espresso program, signature seasonal drinks, and high-quality beans, Gather served as a daily ritual for downtown regulars and visitors alike. Whether it was a hand-poured latte before work or a spiced Café de Olla shared over conversation, the café offered a warm, grounded sense of community with every cup.

Anderson, who brings more than 15 years of hospitality experience, will now join forces with Carroll, founder of Table 33 and several other Dayton food ventures. Both see this as a chance to level up. “Shane helped breathe life into the Arcade. His ability to build meaningful spaces—through coffee, food, and connection—has been invaluable,” said Carroll. “We’re excited to keep that momentum going with something completely fresh.”

Lucho will be a vibrant all-day taqueria-meets-mezcal-bar, with tacos, burritos, bowls, and cocktails served from morning into the night. The menu is packed with bold, soulful combinations like the “El Desvelo” breakfast taco with short rib and chipotle hollandaise, or the “La Baja” with beer-battered fish, charred pineapple salsa, and cabbage slaw.

While the name and flavors may be changing, Lucho will still carry pieces of Gather’s coffee culture forward. Expect signature drinks like the Café de Olla latte, Oaxacan Mocha, and the Mezcal Affogato—espresso poured over vanilla bean ice cream and a float of joven mezcal. Coffee drinkers can rest easy: their morning ritual will still have a home.

On the cocktail side, Lucho comes ready to party. The bar will serve everything from smoky agave Old Fashioneds to hibiscus-infused tequila spritzes, watermelon mezcal sours, and a decadent Churro Martini rimmed with cookie crumble.

At the same time, Carroll’s Hospitalité Group is launching a second concept—completely distinct from Lucho—called The Dessert Room. Housed in its own dedicated space connected to Table 33, The Dessert Room is a nostalgic after-dinner destination focused solely on elevated desserts and post-meal cocktails.

This isn’t just an add-on or side room—it’s a full-fledged experience of its own. Inspired by the kind of sweets that once graced your grandparents’ table (think pies, puddings, and cakes), The Dessert Room reimagines those classics with modern technique, bold flavors, and a little grown-up mischief. Expect warm slices of pie, boozy milkshakes, and candlelit comfort in an intimate, stand-alone setting made for lingering late into the night.

Both Lucho and The Dessert Room are part of a growing investment in downtown Dayton’s culinary scene. “This is about creating layers of experience,” said Carroll. “Gather started the story. Now, we’re building two completely different destinations—one spicy, one sweet, both unforgettable.”

Gather Bids Adieu

June 26, 2025 By Dayton937

Thank you, Dayton. 

“For the past 22 months, Gather by Ghostlight has had the incredible honor of welcoming our community into the historic Dayton Arcade — a space that’s always represented the heart and hope of our city. To be even a small part of its revitalization has meant the world to us.
We want to express our deepest appreciation to the incredible team at The Arcade and Cross Street Partners, who have been far more than landlords. They’ve been champions for our city, working tirelessly with true intention to revitalize this precious gem into something lasting and meaningful for Dayton. It’s been a privilege to partner with people so invested in the soul of this place.
While we’re stepping out of this space, this is not a closing. This is a transition. Sunday, June 29th will be our last service as Gather, but a very exciting collaboration is on the horizon.
Our friends at Hospitalité Group & Table 33 have exciting plans ahead — expanding into both the gallery and café spaces at Gather with fresh concepts & continued community focus. We couldn’t be more thrilled for what’s to come.
Even better news: there will be new opportunities for our amazing Gather team to continue doing what they do best, with coffee, breakfast, lunch & cocktails still a big part of the vision for this space. 🙌 Watch this space for announcements about what’s to come!
The Dayton Arcade is more than architecture. It’s a symbol of resilience, reinvention, and hope. Thank you for allowing us to be a small part of its story.
So much appreciation for all of the staff, guests, artists & musicians who have walked through our 4th Street door. It will only be closed for a little while & then we’ll be welcoming you right back in, with a few changes.

We’ll see you soon — back at our roots on Wayne Ave.”

With love and gratitude,
The Gather by Ghostlight Team

Chili’s Debuts New Premium PATRÓN Frozen Margaritas

Chili’s® Grill & Bar, the seller of more margaritas than any restaurant brand in the U.S. — with more than 25 million sold last year alone — is raising the bar with three new, premium frozen choices made with PATRÓN Silver tequila.

  • PATRÓN Frozen Marg – Timeless and smooth, Chili’s new frozen margarita features PATRÓN Silver, triple sec, lime juice and agave and starts at just $10. Guests can choose to add strawberry, mango, watermelon, blackberry, dragonfruit or even spicy flavor for an added punch.
  • Flamingo Freeze – This vibrant, pink drink is made by shaking up Tito’s® Handmade Vodka with Owen’s Prickly Pear, then swirling with PATRÓN Frozen Marg for a sweet sip featuring a popular flavor in the southwest.
  • Arctic Drift – Featuring a refreshing blend of Malibu® Coconut Rum, pineapple juice and Blue Curaçao, shaken then swirled with PATRÓN Frozen Marg, the Arctic Drift brings in flavors of the tropics, garnished with a lime wedge and maraschino cherry.

“As a leader in the margarita space, we saw a big opportunity to elevate and expand our frozen margs to be ones that our guests deserve,” said George Felix, Chief Marketing Officer at Chili’s Grill & Bar. “At Chili’s, margaritas are a core part of who we are – and now we’re proud to serve what we believe to be the best frozen margs in the industry. I can’t think of a better combination on a hot summer day than our all-new PATRÓN Frozen Marg and a Triple Dipper.”

Heinz’s First New Mustard In a Decade

June 25, 2025 By Guest Contributor

If you’ve turned on Top Hits radio lately, you’ve likely heard a beat made by Dijon McFarlane, also known as DJ Mustard. Mustard has worked with a variety of music artists and has made beats for Kendrick Lamar’s newest album, which includes the hit “TV Off.” The song features the producer’s tag, “Mustard on the beat,” before an undeniably catchy callout “Mustaaaaaard.”

Recently, the music producer added another name to his list of collaborators, but this time it’s not a music industry giant. Mustard has teamed up with Heinz for the brand’s first-ever U.S. partnership. Appropriately named, Heinz Mustaaaaaard is a sweet and smoky chipotle honey mustard that features real chipotle peppers and sweet honey flavor. The thick and creamy sauce is the perfect addition to burgers and chicken, but can also be used as a marinade or to coat beef brisket before tossing into the smoker.

A mustard enthusiast himself, DJ Mustard says that the iconic yellow condiment has always had a place at the table. “Heinz Mustard has always been my grilling secret weapon,” says Mustard. “I knew I wanted some sweetness in my sauce, because that’s what gets you that nice browning, bark formation when grilling, but from there I was open. I tested a bunch of remixes with the Heinz team, trying different ingredients like jalapeños, bacon, and chipotle peppers. In the end, it came down to three top contenders before I ultimately chose what I felt was the ‘Mustard’ of all mustards.

The mustard collab was announced earlier this year, though the details were kept under wraps. Despite limited info, it’s been a much-anticipated release for Mustard and mustard fans alike. “This is too perfect,” said one person in a Reddit thread. “Mustard on the meat,” quipped another.

Fans who want a first taste of the new Heinz creation can do so at Buffalo Wild Wings locations nationwide, where it will be exclusively available June 25 through July 14. Guests who order a beef menu item for dine-in will receive a free bottle of Heinz Mustaaaaaard, while supplies last. But don’t worry if you can’t make it during the two-week preview period. The new mustard will soon roll out to major retailers nationwide, including Walmart.com, Target, and Amazon. This is a limited edition product, and we don’t know exactly how long it will be on shelves, so be sure to stock up before it disappears.

After 32 years of exceptional leadership and dedicated service to her hometown, Jacquelyn “Jacquie” Powell, President & CEO of Destination Dayton®, has announced her retirement, marking the end of a remarkable era in Montgomery County’s tourism and hospitality industry.

Powell has led Montgomery County’s destination marketing organization with passion, vision, and unwavering commitment. During her tenure, she has helped to elevate Dayton and Montgomery County as a vibrant destination for leisure, business, and group travel. Under her leadership, Destination Dayton® achieved transformational milestones, forged strong community partnerships, and delivered measurable economic impact through innovative tourism and hospitality initiatives.

“It has been the honor of my life to serve the community I love,” said Powell. “When I reflect on the last 32 years, I feel immense gratitude—for the people I’ve worked alongside, the partners who believed in our vision, and the visitors who came to discover everything Dayton and Montgomery County have to offer. Together, we’ve built something truly special—a resilient, creative, and thriving destination brand that reflects the heart of our region. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished, and I’m equally excited for what lies ahead for Destination Dayton® and the community.”

Powell began her career in hotel and private club sales and marketing in Dayton and Cincinnati before taking the helm at Destination Dayton®. Over three decades, her strategic insight and industry expertise helped attract major events, boost visitor spending, and strengthen Dayton’s identity as a tourism and business destination.

In 2023 alone, tourism in Montgomery County generated $2.6 billion in total economic impact, including $1.6 billion in direct visitor spending—a 4% increase from the previous year. The sector supported more than 22,750 jobs and fueled $709 million in labor income.

“Jacquie’s leadership has had a profound and lasting impact on this region,” said Scott DeBolt, Chair of the Destination Dayton® Board of Trustees and Executive Director of the University of Dayton Arena. “She has been a tireless advocate for Dayton, building Destination Dayton® into a trusted and influential organization. Her ability to bring people together, her deep industry knowledge, and her passion for our community have elevated the entire region. We are incredibly grateful for her decades of service and leadership.”

Beyond her role at Destination Dayton®, Powell has contributed her expertise and leadership to numerous boards and initiatives, including:

  • Board of Trustees, United States Air & Trade Show, Inc. (supporting the CenterPoint Energy Dayton Air Show)
  • Montgomery County Convention Facilities Authority
  • Quality-of-Life Review Panel, Dayton Development Coalition’s Priority Development & Advocacy Council (PDAC)
  • Governor’s Task Force for the National Afro-American Museum and Cultural Center
  • Former leadership roles with the Buckeye Trails Girl Scout Council
  • Dayton Rotary Club Member and Paul Harris Fellow

Powell’s influence has also extended to statewide and national policy. She is a past President of the Ohio Association of Convention & Visitors Bureaus and served on the Ohio Division of Travel and Tourism’s Advisory Council. She is a respected member of key industry organizations including Destinations International, the U.S. Travel Association, and the American Society of Association Executives.

“At its core, destination marketing is about people and pride of place,” added Powell. “It’s about capturing the spirit of a community and inviting others to experience it. I’ve been honored to share Dayton and Montgomery County’s story with the world—to highlight what makes us special, resilient, and worth visiting. Watching this region grow and shine has been one of the greatest privileges of my career.”

Details about the transition and the search for new leadership will be announced in the coming weeks. Powell will remain in her role through December 2025 to ensure a smooth transition and support the organization during this pivotal moment of change.

As Dayton and Montgomery County’s destination marketing organization, Destination Dayton® collaboratively leads and advocates for the development of the region’s visitor economy, which contributes to a thriving community, a diverse tax base and lifestyle amenities for everyone to enjoy.

Oh Yes, Oh Yes, Oh Yes….This is the “CHICAGO” You Were Hoping For!

June 22, 2025 By Y. K. Cuts

S

Let’s face it, CHICAGO is a mainstay of Broadway shows… and TheatreLab Dayton is bringing you the CHICAGO you are hoping for. Punchy, funny, poignant, and true to the script….they are giving you the energy you need! Giving us a minute of their time, Mackensie King (Director) and Abby Kress (Roxie) sat down to talk about the upcoming stage staple.

937: Hi ladies, thank you for taking some time with us. I can tell you, from the outset, I love CHICAGO, but in its intended form, not the contemporary, less showy versions. I understand; you’re intentionally bringing it back to the Chicago we love. How did all of this come to pass?

MK: We really wanted to embrace the vaudeville spirit at the heart of the show. It plays with the classic ‘show within a show’ trope, and we’re intentionally breaking the fourth wall to invite the audience right into the fantasy unfolding on stage. The script itself has plenty of humor, but this cast has taken it to another level — they’re truly leaning into the comedy and delivering some big, belly laughs. And then there’s the choreography: Gage Wayne has created some absolutely stunning numbers. I think audiences will be tapping their feet and wishing they could jump up there and join in.

AK: This is a beloved musical by many so I hope audiences walk out having that classic Chicago itch scratched. I also hope they can identify the similarities this heightened, vaudevillian world has with the current political and social scenes we experience today.

937: Abby, I know Roxie is a beloved and coveted role….how are you feeling about it? And congratulations to you!

AK: Roxie is a dream role to take on, and challenging for sure. Physically of course, as the entire show is driven by song and dance numbers. Unlike other leading ladies, Roxie’s redeeming qualities are not heavily apparent in the script, that’s Chicago! As an actor, this poses another challenge to justify her choices throughout the show in order to deliver an authentic performance in the heightened world we’ve created.

937: Awesome….so ecited to see it. With that in mind, Mackensie, this season for TheatreLab has been interesting. How does CHICAGO fall into the theme?

MK: Reflecting on this season, one theme shines through: the powerful act of reclaiming one’s story. Chicago slots seamlessly into that narrative—giving center stage to women who not only find their voices but boldly rewrite the script. I’m always drawn to stories led by deeply flawed, complex characters. They invite us to see the world through their lens, challenging our assumptions and stirring empathy. Because really—who among us is perfect?

937: You have elevated those stories for sure this season. LIZZIE, FULL MONTY….people making their place in the world!! Ladies, what are you hoping people leave that theater feeling, or thinking?

AK: This show has a beautiful combination of TheatreLab veterans and fresh new faces! This cast is dynamic, talented, and so eager to entertain you. Chicago is the 2nd longest running show on Broadway, gripping audiences for over 25 years for a good reason. We are so excited to put a Dayton touch on a renowned favorite!

MK: She’s right….and beyond that, Now more than ever, we’re seeing just how much media — and our level of media literacy — shapes the way we view the world. With this piece, I really wanted to remind people that things aren’t always what they seem. Just because something is beautifully worded doesn’t mean it’s truthful. Art has always been one of the most powerful mirrors of our time, and I think it’s essential to dig deeper and find meaning, even in the material we think we already know.

937: Wow….what a great way to wrap this all together. Break many legs, and best to all of you! For more details:

The show runs

  • June 26 – 29, 2025.

Table 33 Temporarily Closed

June 17, 2025 By Dayton937

Due to a recent fire in an apartment above their space, Table 33 will be closing temporarily. Thankfully, everyone is safe — but between the fire and the water damage that followed, they’ve got some cleanup and construction ahead of them before they can safely welcome you back.
Restaurant Management shares “they are heartbroken to hit pause, even for a little while, but they’re committed to doing this the right way so they can come back stronger — and drier — than ever.”
They don’t have a reopening date just yet, but they promise to keep you updated along the way. The entire staff appreciates your patience, support, and all the love their customers have shown us over the years.

Little Caesars Launches Fantastic Four-N-One pizza

June 17, 2025 By Dayton937

Little Caesars is bringing fantastic variety to the table this summer with the launch of the Fantastic Four-N-One Pizza, a heroic new creation inspired by Marvel Studios’ “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”, in theaters July 25.

Inspired by Marvel’s iconic first family, the Fantastic Four-N-One Pizza delivers four bold flavor combinations in one large pie—perfect for families, friend groups, and anyone looking to enjoy a little bit of everything.

Starting as early as June 16, guests can enjoy two slices each of:

  • Classic Cheese

  • Pepperoni

  • Italian Sausage & Bacon

  • Pepperoni & Jalapeño

All for just $7.99.

In addition to the limited-time Fantastic Four-N-One Pizza, Marvel joined forces with Little Caesars to design its first-ever exclusive pizza boxes for the campaign. When all four collectible boxes are put together, they reveal a hidden image connecting all four characters.

“This is a big moment for our brand,” said Greg Hamilton, Chief Marketing Officer at Little Caesars. “We’re thrilled to work with Marvel Studios to bring the excitement of ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ into our stores and into homes across the country. It’s a delicious, craveable, and family-friendly way to celebrate the heroes that bring us together.”

As part of this campaign, Little Caesars is also launching an exclusive deal with Fandango. Guests who purchase $20 or more (in-restaurant or online, excluding third-party delivery) between June 16 and August 10 will receive a code on their Little Caesars receipt for $4 off a movie ticket to see “Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps” in theaters. **

The film, set in a 1960s-inspired New York, features an all-star cast including Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Marvel’s First Family. In “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”, the team faces their most cosmic challenge yet when Galactus and the Silver Surfer threaten Earth’s very existence. In a fun nod to the collaboration, fans might even catch Little Caesars featured in a couple of scenes in the film itself.

The Fantastic Four-N-One Pizza is available ONLINE at participating Little Caesars locations starting June 16 for a soft launch, with a national media push beginning June 23. Guests can customize their pizza with or without jalapeños, ensuring everyone has a fantastic slice waiting.

Wendy’s and Takis Turn Up the Heat with Fuego Meal

June 17, 2025 By Dayton937

Meet this summer’s fiercest duo: Wendy’s® iconic Spicy Chicken Sandwich and fan-favorite snack brand Takis® join forces to create the limited-time Takis Fuego™ Meal, which features the Takis® Fuego™ Chicken Sandwich and Takis-inspired Fuego™ Fries. Wendy’s fans can get their hands on the collaboration in U.S. restaurants on Friday, June 20th 

Wendy’s and Takis Turn Up the Heat with a Flavor-Packed Collaboration
Dropping nationwide at all Wendy’s locations:
Fuego Chicken Sandwich: Features a spicy chicken fillet with chili lime & cheddar cheese sauce, followed by crushed Takis Fuego chips and creamy corn spread on a toasted bun.
-Takis Inspired Fuego Fries: Features Hot Natural Cut Fries and chili lime seasoning. Comes in a tear-away bag.

Available as the Takis Fuego™ Meal or a la carte, heat seekers can add even more Takis punch to their meal with a bag of Takis Fuego® chips that are only available in the Takis Fuego™ Meal while supplies last*.

“At Wendy’s, we know how to keep things spicy, and we love serving up fresh, famous collaborations that tap into consumers passion points, which made this partnership with Takis a no brainer,” said Lindsay Radkoski, U.S. Chief Marketing Officer for The Wendy’s Company. “By joining forces with such an iconic and beloved snacking brand, we’re turning up the heat and flavor in a way only Wendy’s can!”

Additionally, from June 20 to July 20, fans can turn up the temperature with Wendy’s in-app game, Spice Invasion, available to U.S. app users. In the retro arcade-style game, players navigate treacherous terrain, blasting Wendy’s menu items with Takis chips to earn points, win prizes and be entered to win the grand prize of $10,000**.

“We are beyond excited to join forces with Wendy’s, a powerhouse brand that shares our passion for Intensity and Flavor.” said Sandra Kirkpatrick, U.S. Sr. Director of Marketing at Barcel USA. “Takis fans are known for turning up the flavor—and now, we’re taking it to the next level with Wendy’s. We’ve seen how our fans love adding Takis chips to everything, and together, we’re delivering a spicy, unforgettable experience that’s made for heat seekers. Get ready to taste the thrill!”

Flavor fiends can find their closest Wendy’s restaurant using the Wendy’s Restaurant Locator in the U.S. This collaboration is one heat wave fans won’t want to miss!
