Charleston has a huge community of people working in food and beverage. One of my favorite aspects of this city’s nightlife is its support for each other’s businesses and employees. There are a ton of bars and restaurants in Charleston that offer special deals and discounts for employees keeping the city’s booming industry running.
I’ve worked in bars and restaurants for almost a decade, and at the time of writing this I still work a few nights a week serving tables. My fellow F&B people know that when your weekend falls on random days of the week, you look for any help available on the cost of going out for food or drinks.
That’s why searches like F&B Deals, F&B Specials, Industry Night, Hospitality Deals, Service Industry Night, etc. are so popular (especially on Bartopia). We’ve compiled a list of every deal specialized for folks in the industry, plus some for other industries like healthcare, first responders and teachers.
This is a working document, we’ll keep adding F&B deals as we find them. So if we missed any, send them our way! Let’s dive in!
