The original Chuy's, an Austin landmark on Barton Springs Road since 1982, will celebrate their 40th birthday with fun and festivities, offering an array of gifts and surprises – with a Golden Ticket giveaway and a chance to win free Chuy's once a month for a year. Bonus: All-day happy hour, $1 floaters, a commemorative cup with all Grande ‘Ritas, and free Chuy Chuy Churro bites for every table.

This community initiative, headed by Chris Cubas and Maris Clegg, is dedicated to providing free meals (of red beans and rice, andouille sausage, cornbread, fruit, dessert, and a drink) to Austinites in need. "On Tuesdays, we will provide a link to sign up for a free home-made meal delivered to you with safety in mind," goes their announcement on Facebook. "There is no judgment and the form is anonymous. If you have been affected by the impact of Covid-19 or are having a hard time, we would like to make a small portion of your day a little bit better." Or, if you'd like to donate your time in driving, baking treats, or providing cases of nonalcoholic beverages, please reach out to [email protected].
