Central Arkansas Restaurant Week — Restaurant Registration
Central Arkansas Restaurant Week (CARW) runs September 21–27, 2026. Restaurants of every size — from food trucks to fine dining — participate by offering a special menu or item during the week, with proceeds benefiting the Arkansas Foodbank’s fight against hunger.
How Participation Works
A donation to the Arkansas Foodbank is required to participate. You’ll choose:
- How you’ll donate:
- Flat dollar amount — a fixed donation, regardless of sales
- Percentage of sales — a set % of the price of your menu or item
- Dollar amount per item — a fixed $ for every unit sold (e.g., “$2 per beer sold”)
- What you’ll offer:
- Prix fixe menu — a set 2–3 course menu at a fixed price (our preferred format)
- Featured item — one dish, drink, or dessert
There’s no wrong way to participate — pick whatever combination fits your business best.
Suggested donation tiers (based on the price of your menu or item):
| Tier | Price point | Target donation |
|---|---|---|
| Quick Bite | Under $10 | $50 |
| Everyday Eats | $10–$20 | $100 |
| Date Night | $21–$30 | $150 |
| Fine Dining | $31+ | $250 |
These are targets to help you pick a comfortable donation level — every restaurant is welcome at any tier.
