Dover Main Street presents Dover Restaurant Week 2021 - July 11-25

This year, Dover Main Street is hosting an alternative social-media-based Restaurant Week format to help our local restaurants gain traction in what is proving to be a challenging recovery after 2020. Our local restaurants are struggling with staff shortages, increased food costs, and gaining the confidence of consumers to dine out once again.

Dover Main Street hopes to encourage community members to support our local restaurants throughout Restaurant Week by dining out (or getting takeout), engaging in our social media posts, and encouraging friends to participate. They'll be raffling off gift cards and restaurant loot throughout the week as a "thank you" for joining the movement. Follow their Facebook page for more details on this special Dover Restaurant Week event.
