Waiting for Haverhill’s Annual Restaurant Week? Here’s Some Tasty News

Those who expect Haverhill’s annual Restaurant Week this time of year are in for a treat if their taste buds can hold out.Up until now, Haverhill’s Restaurant week immediately followed L’Arche Boston North’s Longest Table event, which took place last week. During a recent appearance on WHAV’s “Win for Breakfast” program, Haverhill Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Alex Eberhardt says Haverhill restaurant operators says resident most need a treat in the winter.“So, it’ll be in February, during the slower season, to really help boost attendance in restaurants during the winter months and really start showing how amazing it can be to go and eat special awesome warm food and drink delicious drinks in February when we aren’t sure if there will be a blizzard or not,” she explains.Eberhardt says the exact start of Haverhill’s Restaurant Week hasn’t been decided, but the concept remains the same.“I tell people, please be as creative as possible, because having the same burger special that you typically have a few times a year, or every week, isn’t as enticing as having something really whacky and fun, or just a really great special for that week, that entices people to come and try new things, because you want them to choose you even over the other restaurants,” she adds.Eberhardt says having Restaurant Week in February help keeps the attention on Haverhill’s food scene, following a busy summer and fall season.Support the show
