“In every corner of Burlington County, we have amazing restaurants including many small family-run businesses, whose owners and employees are neighbors, family or friends,” said Senator Singleton. “These businesses are important gathering spots and are essential to our communities and downtowns. Restaurant Week is our way to support and showcase them and give them a much-deserved boost in business.”

“From cheesesteaks and wings to fusion and fine dining, Burlington County has it all. No matter your tastes, Restaurant Week is a great way to support local restaurants and their employees,” added Burlington County Regional Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Kristi Howell.

Burlington County Restaurant Week was first created in 2019 as an economic development initiative to showcase local restaurants and their importance to local communities. It quickly grew to become one of the County’s biggest and most popular business promotions, which prompted the Commissioners to expand the event and hold it twice a year.

The first Winter Restaurant Week was held in March this year and featured more than 60 restaurants. This summer’s event surpasses that total and features dozens of places participating for the first time.

“Restaurant Week was a great idea when it started and its growth has been phenomenal,” said Burlington County Commissioner Deputy Director Tom Pullion. “In just a few years, we’ve become one of the biggest restaurant weeks across the region, and that includes Philadelphia and Atlantic City. Our county’s restaurants are among the best anywhere and Restaurant Week is the perfect way to sample a new place and support some of your local favorites.”
