The Fridays Mobile App helps guests make every minute count by letting them close out their check when they’re ready. Available now at the iTunes App Store or Google Play, the Fridays Mobile App lets guests open a tab and pay the bill right from their smart phone.
“By offering delicious new menu options at the right value, Fridays helps guests get more out of their lunch hour,” said Brian Gies, Senior Vice President, Chief Marketing Officer. “Combined with the convenience of our mobile payment app, guests are able to lunch better at our restaurants.”
To celebrate the launch of the new menu items, Fridays will use the #firsthappyhour Twitter hashtag to capture patrons making the crucial game time decision of where to spend their lunch hour.
Also in March, Fridays will offer appetizer and drink specials for Fat Tuesday, including $5 SoCo Hurricane and $5 Jack Daniels cocktails and appetizers every Tuesday of the month, and will be featuring Green Beer and Irish ‘Ritas in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day.
