For Restaurants

Bring new neighborhood families to your tables.

Restaurant Weeks like NYC's or Miami Spice are reserved for major cities and rarely include neighborhood or franchise restaurants — and typically cost $3,000+ per year to join. PTA Restaurant Week brings that same visibility to the community around your local school, at a fraction of the cost.

Why join

+30–200%

Estimated revenue lift during the promotional period vs. the same period the prior year.

More Tips, More Hours

Increased volume benefits servers and back-of-house staff alike.

Brand Goodwill

Positions your restaurant as a visible local supporter of education and community.

How it works

During the November 2–15, 2026 promotional window, your restaurant offers a promotional menu — you choose the format — and donates 20% of the value of those promotional items, on every such order, to your partner school's PTA. The donation applies to the promotional items only, not the rest of the check.

Prix-Fixe Menu

One price per person covering appetizer, entrée, and dessert — at lunch, dinner, or both. Minimum 2 choices in each course.

Suggested: up to $30.00 (lunch) · $45.00 (dinner)

À la Carte Items

3 to 6 individually priced items — a pizza, a burger, a sandwich, a salad, a signature dessert. Ideal for pizzerias, cafés, and fast-casual kitchens.

Suggested: up to $20.00 (lunch) · $35.00 (dinner)

Franchise and chain restaurants aren't required to create custom dishes — participation and the 20% donation are what count. Each restaurant location connects to a single, nearby school PTA.

2026 investment

The fees to participate cover advertising and collateral materials for your restaurant and your partner PTA.

$900
Restaurant participation fee, per edition. Still a fraction of the $3,000+ cost of comparable big-city restaurant weeks. The school/PTA fee is always $0.
