Fairfield Restaurant Week Will Run For 2 Weeks, Starting Monday

FAIRFIELD, CT — Fairfield Restaurant Week is underway, with 28 restuarants participating. The event, in its 10th year, will run for two weeks, from Oct. 25 to Nov. 7.

Mark Barnhart, Fairfield’s director of community and economic development, in a town news release acknowledged the coronavirus pandemic and the difficulties that many businesses continue to face.

“It’s been a trying time for many small businesses," he said. "Between staffing shortages, increased costs and supply chain issues, restaurateurs face a host of challenges. We hope that residents and visitors alike will be able to enjoy and support the many restaurants that Fairfield has to offer, while also being conscience of the continued difficulties faced by these businesses as a result of the pandemic.”

Participating resturants are offering special prix fixe or other discounted lunch and dinner menus. Several restaurants will also offer takeout and family meal deals.

"Restaurant Week gives the public the opportunity to visit longtime favorites or try someplace new," First Selectwoman Brenda Kupchick said in a town news release. "With the variety of cuisine that’s offered during this event, it’s easy to see why Fairfield continues to be a top dining destination.”
