Dine & Dash | June 1, 2019
Grab your team and come hungry to Dine & Dash 2019! Dine & Dash is a day-long marathon of sampling tasty food and beverages at our Eat West Allis member restaurants and shops. Here’s how it works:

- DINE AND DASH RULES ON THE BIG DAY: Each team has all day to complete the event. Each team must go to all participating establishments and complete the eating challenge (1 portion per team; 1 person may eat the item or the team may split it). After each eating challenge is completed, the team must post a team pic on Eat West Allis’ Facebook page. Teams can choose their own route; however, plan your route based on each establishment’s store hours. Dine & Dash begins at 10 a.m. but ends when each establishment closes based on their normal business hours.
- HOW DO YOU WIN? After completing all 21 eating challenges and posting each completed challenge to the Eat West Allis Facebook page, you must text 262-617-3276 to record your finish time. The first 3 teams to complete the challenge will receive a choice of $10 gift cards to Eat West Allis establishments (each team member will receive a $10 gift card).
