The annual Ogden Eats promotion is scheduled to run from Nov. 5-15 to promote independently owned restaurants in Ogden. According to a Nov. 3 report, the event features seasonal menus and special deals from 16 participating eateries.
Visit Ogden Director of Marketing and Communications Taylor Hartman stated on Tuesday that the 16 participating restaurants will offer curated seasonal menu items and deals to help residents support local businesses during the upcoming holiday season. Hartman noted that specialties may vary by location, such as Steve’s Black Sabbath BBQ, which is offering a free dessert with the purchase of an entree. Other participating locations include The Mercantile on 25th Street and Tona Sushi Bar & Grill.
The 2026 participating restaurant list includes Warren’s Craft Burger, Taboo Pizza — Riverwalk, Table 25, Roosters Brewing Co., UTOG Brewing, The Mercantile on 25th Street, Slackwater Pub & Pizzeria, Union Grill, Hilton Garden Grille & Lounge, Tona Sushi Bar & Grill, Steve’s Black Sabbath BBQ, Ramen Haus, Hearth on 25th, Lucky Slice Pizza, Ogden Beer Company, and The Sonora Grill.
Held annually since 2013, Ogden Eats is a collaborative marketing campaign funded by participating restaurants, food and beverage distributors, suppliers, and other community partners. Hartman said the promotion has grown over the years, though the industry has seen changes such as new restaurants opening and older ones closing. During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, the promotion shifted to distributing gift cards with state funding. Hartman stated the campaign is intended to help local independent restaurants compete against larger industry chains.
