“This is a great opportunity for people to get out and rediscover a restaurant they might not have been to in awhile or to support a few of their favorites without breaking the bank,” says Carrie Eisner, program director for Dover Main Street.
With 11 local restaurants participating, from a full range of cuisines and tastes, event organizers and Dover Main Street board members.

Molly Hodgson Smith, Executive Director of the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce, notes, “It’s the perfect week to come to Dover for dinner with family and friends, or lunch with co-workers. The fixed price menu gives you the opportunity to sample all the unique and interesting restaurants in the city at a very affordable price. Now more than ever, it is important for everyone to be supporting locally owned businesses in our community.”
