Last-Minute Labor Day Restaurant Specials!

The big and final holiday weekend of the summer is here. No matter where you’re located, this can be a big weekend for you, but for many, this will be a huge weekend filled with tourists and returning customers. If you haven’t planned out a Labor Day special for your guests, it’s not too late! Here are a few things you can do, even last minute, to make the most of the busy holiday festivities.


Honor the American Worker

Labor Day will be celebrating it’s 125th anniversary this year. The holiday was created to honor the creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of the American workers. Highlight the celebration by sharing fun facts about the holiday on the tables, and at the bar, but also consider offering discounts. You can offer a free drink to those who bring a work ID or proof of work status. Similarly, you can offer percentage discounts to those who have been following their career for a certain number of years. If a teacher comes in and has been working for 25 years, she can get 25% off, or someone serving in their factory for 10 years gets 10% off. This is a fast way to offer discounts without putting a lot of your inventory at risk on short notice. It’s also a fun way to learn more about your customers and build a better relationship with them.

Close of Summer Bash

Summer is coming to an end, and for many, this is sad news, but that doesn’t mean it can’t go out without a bang! If you have an exclusive summer menu, now is a great time to offer discounts on those selections. You can offer a happy hour on your summer drink selections or throw a party featuring your fun fish tacos as the close of summer spotlight.

Beat the clock events can also be a fun way to get guests to come in and stay late. Offer incredible deals at the beginning and have the prices increase at the beginning of every hour.

This is also a great way to clear out some of your summer inventory so you won’t have it hanging around for too long taking up space. Make sure to let your guests know that it’s first come first serve, and when it’s gone - it’s gone!

Serving Up a Piece of Fall

If you’ve been counting down the days until pumpkins, apples, and toasted marshmallows - you’re not alone. Many restaurants have been rolling out the fall flavors already, and the guests are eating it up - literally! If you are ready to kick off fall, Labor Day Weekend could be the perfect time to get started.

You can unveil your fantastic fall menu to your guests this weekend, offer tastings, discount some of the items and even offer coupons that can be used at a later date during the fall. Not only will this help increase the excitement for your guests, but it can also help create a feeling of urgency because they will need to come back before the fall flavors are gone.
