How to find this week's specials near you
- Check the "specials" or "promotions" section of a restaurant's website and app.
- Follow local restaurants on social media, where daily specials are often posted first.
- Look at local visitor guides. On the Florida coast, our Best Of sites list happy hours and events, for example Best of Palm Beach County and Best of Broward County.
- Ask when you book. Many restaurants have specials they do not advertise.
Restaurant promotions change all the time and can vary by location. Always check the restaurant's app or website for current terms before you go. We are not affiliated with the restaurants named here.
Frequently asked questions
Why is Tuesday the day for deals?
