OTHER WAYS TO SUPPORT PHILLY RESTAURANTS
Buying gift cards is another excellent way to support neighborhood restaurants. In addition to giving you something to look forward to when social distancing ends, many Philadelphia restaurant owners are setting aside a portion of these gift card sales to support their staff and hourly employees.
Other urban restaurateurs have set up virtual tip jars using online platforms such as Venmo and GoFundMe. Every “tip” will help cover operating costs and keep the kitchen fires burning until they can welcome you back in person.
