Tax Day Relief Deals In NYC

Do you need some Tax Day relief like me? The government may not be cutting you any slack these days, but at least the following restaurants will:

Bar Blanc Bistro: It’s the final day that Bar Blanc Bistro will be offering 50% off all bar menu items and alcohol (excluding bottles of wine) at the bar between 6-8pm.  We hit this special up last week and it’s not to be missed.

B.R. Guest: 15% Off Gift Cards Until the 15th! You deserve a break… B.R. Guest Restaurants is offering 15% off Gift Cards purchased online starting TODAY - Monday, April 6, 2009 through tax day, Wednesday, April 15, 2009.

Chick-fil-A: You already know that we’d kill to have more Chick-fil-A’s in Manhattan. For now, we have to pretend to be in college and head to the food court in NYU’s Weinstein Center. I guess we’ll tell you the Chick-fil-A deal anyways, even though it’s probably not being offered at our one and only location. Visit a participating restaurant April 15 and hang onto your receipt. The “Tax Relief Day Special” lets you return before April 30 to receive the same order for free.

Energy Kitchen (all locations): Drop by the local chain on April 15 between noon and 2 p.m. for a free sandwich with a drink purchase.
