Food deals and discounts on coffee, fast food, and fine dining (greaterseattleonthecheap.com)

Listed below are food deals (and drink deals) and restaurant dining discounts available throughout the Seattle-Tacoma metro area. You’ll find offers from local eateries, national chains, and fast-food restaurants. As always, we focus on those with “cheap” or modest prices. We may occasionally feature more expensive options that offer a special meal or savings.

Always keep in mind that prices and participation can vary–a food deal may not be available at your nearest location. This is because national chains are often franchises that are locally owned and operated. A franchise can sometimes choose whether to participate in a national promotion.

When a minimum order purchase is specified, it is calculated BEFORE taxes, tips, or other fees.

Join the reward or loyalty program at places you frequent most–from coffee stands and casual eateries to fine dining restaurants. Members of loyalty programs get more discounts and deals, some delivered daily to your smartphone app, making it easy to save money on your most visited locations.

Food and drink deals with an expiration date are listed in the first section, followed by a list of those that are available “for a limited time”.

NOTE: Not all locations offer the same national promotions. As a result, price and participation may vary. It’s always wise to call ahead for verification in your area. Find more deals across the country at Restaurant Deals – Living On The Cheap.
We typically publish food deals available to the general public. Many more discounts and deals are available in the restaurant’s app and/or by joining their loyalty club.
