"The federal government is officially in a shutdown. Which means, as has become a Washington tradition, some restaurants and bars in the DC area are offering food and drink specials during the entire shutdown-often just for furloughed workers, sometimes for everyone."
"Here are some places offering a discount while we wait for Congress to get it together."
"We will continue to update this post as we hear about specials."
The federal government is officially in a shutdown. Restaurants and bars in the DC area are offering food and drink specials throughout the shutdown. Many of the offers target furloughed federal workers, while some specials are available to all customers. The practice of offering discounts during shutdowns has become a recurring Washington tradition. Establishments are promoting these specials to support affected workers and to maintain business during reduced federal spending. A running list of participating places is being maintained and will be updated as additional restaurants and bars announce specials.
