As a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, restaurants across the United States are temporarily shutting their doors. While dining in at your favorite restaurant isn't an option for many people right now, takeout and delivery are still available. Some food establishments are even ramping up their to-go options as more and more cities are adhering to social distancing protocol.
The Cheesecake Factory is one chain offering something extra for their customers during these uncertain times. The restaurant chain took to social media on Wednesday (March 18) to reassure their customers that, although they'll be closing their doors to diners in many cities, they will still be available for delivery and curbside pickup. “Your well-being and safety is our number one priority," the Cheesecake Factory wrote on Instagram. "As many cities transition to not allowing dine-in service, we remain open for takeout & delivery. Even when we’re apart, we can get through this together.”
In addition to staying open for delivery (via DoorDash) and curbside pickup, the popular restaurant chain will also give away a free cheesecake slice for every online to-go orders of $30 or more. The promotion has already started and will last through April 16. All you have to do is use the code FREESLICE at checkout when ordering online. When you head over to your local Cheesecake Factory to grab your curbside pickup order, there will be free treat included in your meal.
“As many of our cities and neighborhoods transition to no longer allowing dine-in service, our restaurants are open to help our guests continue to enjoy their Cheesecake Factory favorites whether they’re ordering them online for pickup or in person for takeout,” Donald Evans, Chief Marketing Officer of The Cheesecake Factory, said in a statement. “We thought a complimentary slice of cheesecake would provide our guests with some happiness during this time of uncertainty.”
