Grubhub’s Food Feastival to Celebrate Hometown Restaurants at Chicago’s Daley Plaza

As a part of Grubhub's 20th anniversary, the company is hosting a FREE food festival to show appreciation for small business restaurant partners

This year Grubhub turns 20, and we are celebrating with thank yous to our merchants, delivery partners, diners, and employees for all they do to make our business possible. To show appreciation for our hometown restaurant partners, we will host a food festival or "feastival" in Chicago to celebrate the small business restaurants that make up our iconic food scene - while also treating customers to a free lunch experience.

On Tuesday, September 24, 2024 from 11:30am - 1:30pm CT, the Grubhub Food Feastival will showcase several small business restaurants, including some of our longest-tenured partners. All hungry Chicagoans are invited to this free lunchtime event at Daley Plaza to connect with some of Grubhub's restaurants serving their favorite local eats.

The Grubhub Food Feastival will spotlight more than 20 local restaurants (full list below) from across the city and each will offer small bites of their most popular dishes including everything from empanadas and shrimp & grits to the Windy City's most iconic foods - Chicago dogs and deep dish pizza.

The Grubhub Food Feastival aims to celebrate our small business restaurant partners, and it offers an opportunity to support our neighbors and communities in a way Grubhub is uniquely positioned to do.

As part of our commitment to help close the hunger gap, we are partnering with Rescuing Leftover Cuisine, to safely rescue any food not consumed at the event and redistribute it to our neighbors experiencing food insecurity. As a nonprofit dedicated to fighting food insecurity, Rescuing Leftover Cuisine is a longstanding Grubhub Community Fund partner that will transport any leftover bites from the food fest to local nonprofit organizations.
