Valentine’s Day Restaurant Deals

POSTED BY
Evelyn Kanter

valentine's day restaurant dealsIt’s love at first bite at chain restaurants on Valentine’s Day, and all week at some chains, with decadent deals for the hopelessly romantic and forever frugal.  There even are deals for those who are not in a relationship and eating alone.

As usual, our list includes some chains with no NYC location, because NYC on the Cheap has followers everywhere.

Keep in mind that offerings, price and participation may vary by location, so check with your local restaurant for further details.

In alphabetical order, because that’s the only fair way:

Auntie Anne’s

Original and Cinnamon Sugar Heart-Shaped Pretzels will be available nationwide on February 14th. Better yet, Auntie Anne’s is offering a Heart-Shaped Pretzel Buy One, Get One (BOGO) promotion redeemable only on February 14.
