D.C. Restaurant Gift Card List (Updated 9/2022)

HOME

Update September 2022: We put up this list in 2020 to help connect restaurants and those that wanted to support them.  The crisis may be fading, but many still want to support restaurants and also give gift cards as actual gifts!   We have updated it for 2022. To find restaurants doing take-out or delivery see our recommended list that includes current status and is regularly updated.  If you are a restaurant in the District and don’t see yourself list (scroll all the way to the bottom to be sure!), contact us and we’ll add you

THE LIST

Independent operators are listed first in roughly alphabetical order with a link to the restaurant site and then the gift card link if applicable.  Those restaurants that are part of a larger group (like Knightsbridge, Neighborhood Restaurant Group, etc) are at the bottom.  If you don’t see a place you are looking for, they still might have a way to give support, so contact them directly.  Some places are listed as placeholders.  They have “None” in the comment area.
