Kearny Eats! kicks off Friday, June 7

One of Kearny’s most popular annual programs has returned and is in full swing.

Kearny Eats! the annual concept developed to support local Kearny-based restaurants and food businesses, sponsored by the Kearny Urban Enterprise Zone, returned June 7 and runs through June 23. During that time, customers may again take advantage of food and beverage deals and special menu items from dozens of participating food businesses — from restaurants to bakeries, to cafes, bars and more.

The KUEZ encourages residents and visitors to support these businesses.

“Eat in, get takeout or delivery, call in an order — make a difference and help our local businesses. And while you’re at it you may discover a new favorite spot,” KUEZ Coordinator Linda Kraus D’Isa said.
