Restaurant Reward Programs

The following is a list of Restaurant Reward Programs that you may be unaware of. If you dine at these places a lot, or even every on a somewhat regular basis, I highly suggest signing up. Many of them have rewards/freebies just for signing up. Signing up is free and all you have to do is present your rewards card when you're paying your bill. I'll list all the ones I'm aware of: *$1=1 point unless otherwise noted.

Papa Gino's/Dangelo's is a fairly new program, but has by far the best sign up bonus. Just for signing up you get a FREE small pizza, and a FREE small sub. Even if you never plan to eat at this place ever again, why not just sign up and get your free pizza and sub? As if that's not enough, you also get 25 Points to start off with (50 points gets you $5 Off).

Just the other day I ordered a small sub for the gf, and a medium sub for myself. I had a coupon for $1 off a medium. I was able to use my free sub, and the coupon. So dinner cost just $6 that night!

Subway has no bonus for signing up but here's what your points get you...

10 Points = 1 Cookie
15 Points = 1 Bag of Chips
20 Points = 21 oz. Drink
35 Points = Mini Sub
50 Points = Regular 6” Sub or Wrap
75 Points = Regular Foot-Long Sub or Salad


TGI Fridays gives you a FREE Appetizer just for signing up. So again... even if you hardly ever go, next time you do just sign up and use your free app.

Spend $100 get an $8 coupon.... not that great, but if you eat there often... better then nothing.

Qdoba gives you FREE homemade chips and salsa on your next visit. Their program is a little different. Here's how it works:

A full-priced entrée (usually $5 or more) is worth 100 points. So after purchasing 10 entrées worth 100 points each, your 11th entrée will be free. In some markets, a full-price entrée (usually $5 or more) is worth 84 points, so after purchasing 12 entrées worth 84 points each, your 13th entrée will be free.

D'Ann's a Great Sports Bar in Abington,MA supposedly give you $10 FREE for signing up though I never got mine and never followed up on it. But anyway, they do have a good program:

200 points =$20 ($1 spent=1 point)

Tuesday is DOUBLE points day ($1 spent =2 points) so in theory if you just go on tuesday, $100 spent will you earn you $20. Points add up quick when you're drinking with friends....
