No kidding. Just go, get a couple burgers or a steak and get full. Seems like a great deal

I can't get past the idea of giving Applebees $200.

That's what I'm saying. I'm not a huge Applebee's fan and obviously it isn't fine dining, but it's perfectly normal food and served just fine in most cases. People just like to feel like they're above eating there. Same thing with people who feel elitist because they think they're too good to buy some random shite at Walmart.

Report back if you will. Hell, I love Luby's and will nibble on gas station food when needed. I'm not scared of an Applebee's mushroom burger and apps.

Correct me if I’m wrong because Applebee’s has made this a little vague.

Buy date night pass for $200.

Get up to $30 worth of food or non-alcoholic beverages per visit.

Use up to 52 times in a year or before 1/31/25.

If I’m correct here, that’s a tough deal to let slide if you live near an Applebee’s. Also, the food there is fine. Certainly no worse than any other chain bar/grill sit down.

With places like Applebees, you know what you’re getting and it’s consistent. I never understood why it’s so trendy to shite on chains.

Byronz in Willow Grove has 2-4-1 entrees on Tuesdays. That's a good deal.

"Casual Dining" used to be at least tolerable. Now it's junk on a plate. The cheapest mass produced food put on a plate.
I'd hate to see the factories it comes from.
All the shrimp and seafood comes from southeast Asia.

My big question would be can I give the card to someone else to use, or is it linked to ONLY me?

Discounts up to $30. What does that mean?

Read the FAQs. There is no minimum purchase required. Imagine getting a $30 gift card every 24 hours that you can use 52 times. Only thing you pay is tax and gratuity.

If you buy an alcoholic drink, that isn't included. If you spend less than $30 you don't roll that money over.

I definitely seems almost too good to be true. Who cares if it's from Applebee's? I don't go often but in the times that I've gone, I've usually gotten a bacon cheese burger with fries. That is hard to mess up for any restaurant, especially chains.

Nothing better than Applebees on a Date Night with the Bourbon Street Steak and the Oreo Shake.

So does your seafood in a high percentage of Louisiana restaurants you eat in. And it's easy to pass on Applebee's salmon

I’m always curious about the Applebees and Chilis of the world. Every time I pass one, they are slammed and parking lot is full.

22-25 year old me would have been all the frick over this. But the $200 would have been tough to swing back then.

I don't think I've ever been to an Applebee's but that seems like a really solid deal.

I have no problem polishing off a platter of nachos and a few beers at the Applebees.

No, thanks. I would have to majorly step up my game to pull trim worthy of Applebees
