The New Rochelle Downtown Business Improvement District (NRBID) is excited to announce a terrific new program called the Summer Concert Takeout Meals program.

Now through the end of August, local residents and visitors can purchase delicious, ready-to-go, specially priced takeout meals from one of the participating Downtown restaurants for a great meal at a great price. They are perfect for a dinner in the park or to take along to any of the free music programs scheduled throughout the summer in the parks and public spaces.

More than 30 Downtown dining spots are offering takeout specials as part of the program, which runs through the end of August. Diners are in for a real treat, as the delicious meals come with discounted pricing and perhaps even a free surprise or two from some participating restaurants. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner items are available.

The Summer Concert Takeout Meals program was launched as an innovative complement to Downtown’s burgeoning music scene and other programming in its parks and public spaces. Given the program’s expected popularity among those who live, work, visit, and study in New Rochelle, it’s little surprise that so many restaurants jumped at the chance to be part of it.

Said Executive Director Littman, “The Summer Concert Takeout Meals program is a great way to support our local restaurants while enjoying a great meal and a show in one of Downtown’s parks – or perhaps a quieter night at home.”

To take advantage of the wonderful meals offered through the Summer Concert Takeout Meals program, simply contact the restaurant directly to place your take-out order. The specials will only be available to order directly from the restaurants and not available via any food delivery or reservation apps.

The new Summer Concert Takeout Meals program comes just in time for Downtown New Rochelle’s bustling music scene this summer. Music lovers can check out the Summer Sounds Concert Series presented by the New Rochelle Council on the Arts at the pop-up NewRo Parc (455 Main St corner of North Ave) on Fridays and the Summer Sizzle Concert Series at Ruby Dee Park (1 Library Plaza) on Saturdays as well as the New Rochelle Public Library’s free International Dance Festival in July.

Another great summer program for local foodies is, of course, the just-reopened New Rochelle Farmers Market in Downtown at Anderson Plaza on Sundays from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. It features in-district restaurants doing cooking demos, great produce, foods, and handmade market items to buy, along with live music now through October.
