Our Special Message for Restaurants, Food Trucks, Bars, Brewpubs, and Other Food Service BusinessesThe nighttime economy begins at 6 p.m. and wraps up at 6 a.m. Whatever portion of that clock you claim, we want you back and thriving. Food service businesses in the United States that have experienced pandemic-related revenue loss can register now for a Restaurant Revitalization Fund account with the Small Business Administration.

The application process will remain open until all funds are exhausted. 24HourDallas encourages all these food service businesses to register for an account now and then prepare for the gold rush on Monday:
