MARK THESE DATES: The DMV Black Restaurant Week returns this fall from Nov. 3 to 10, 2019. The week long event features dining deals and extensive programming spotlights black bar and restaurant workers, highlights black-owned businesses in the region, and seeks to empower more people of color to open their own establishments. 

DMV Black Restaurant Week members offer discounts to diners throughout the entire week at about 50 establishments. Founders explain that the DMV Black Restaurant Week is more flexible because take-out eateries, cafes, caterers, coffee shops, wine bars, and other businesses that don’t fit squarely into the “restaurant” category can take part.

Location: The Washington, DC metro area, (DMV = D.C., Maryland & Virginia)
