what's new

In September, Eat’n Park was selected to compete in the Pittsburgh Business Times’ “Brand Madness” challenge – along with 63 other local brands. We were up against some very stiff competition over the past few months, but thanks to our supporters, we defeated Kings, Giant Eagle, Brunner, Alpern Rosenthal, and Cranberry Woods Office Park to make it to the championship. In the end, we lost to a Pittsburgh legend, the Terrible Towel.

Even though we didn't win, we’d like to extend a huge Smiley thank you to all our loyal fans who voted for us – we couldn’t have made it to the finals without you!

We are honored that you voted us Pittsburgh’s second-favorite brand!

Gift cards can be a lifesaver. A time-saver. Even a face-saver! Think about it: What do you turn to when you need a quick and easy way to say thanks? Or when you've forgotten about a birthday until the day of the party?

You can't go wrong with a gift card - especially when it's from Eat'n Park! But sometimes, you need one in a pinch, and you just don’t have time to stop in to your local restaurant.

Great news: Our gift cards are now available electronically, so you can have one in an instant! No special trips, no shipping charges, and no waiting. Order your gift card online, and have it sent to you or your recipient via email – right now!

Just realized that you need to leave in an hour for Aunt Margaret’s party, and you don’t have a gift? Order an electronic gift card, print it out at home, and tuck it into Auntie’s card. Oh, and if she’s a techie? Email it to her, and she can redeem it right from her smartphone!


The coolest part is that you can customize our electronic gift cards. Not only can you choose your card design and add your own personal message, but you can upload photos and even make a voice recording! And if you don’t need to send the gift card right now, you can schedule it to be delivered on the date and time of your choosing, up to 30 days in advance. It doesn’t get much easier than that!

Of course, our traditional plastic gift cards are still available in our restaurants and online. E-gift cards just give you a new option – a quick and easy way to get your gift card, right when you need it! Click here to try it out today.

Special Offer – Get a coupon with your e-gift card!

Everyone who purchases an e-gift card now through November 16 will receive a coupon for $2 off a $5 breakfast purchase (5-11 AM daily), valid through November 30.

The coupon will be sent at the bottom of your purchase receipt, so make sure you print that email before deleting it!

For the last 32 years, Eat'n Park guests and team members have united to do some serious fundraising for five weeks every November and December. That's right - it's time for Caring for Kids!

We just kicked off our 33rd annual campaign, and we're hoping that this year's donation will put us over the $8 million mark in total contributions to local children's hospitals. To hit our goal, we're going to need your help!

$2 Raffle Tickets - 2012 Ford Focus

Our generous partner, The Neighborhood Ford Store, has kindly donated a 2012 Ford Focus to the campaign - so one lucky guest is going to be taking home a pretty nice Christmas present!


Raffle tickets are available for just $2 each at every Eat'n Park location. Just ask your server for one (or 10!) for your chance to win. 100% of the proceeds from the raffle go directly to the campaign.


For full details and raffle restrictions, click here.

Caring Hearts Merchandise

Earlier this year, we partnered with world-famous artist (and Pittsburgh native) Burton Morris, who created an exclusive design featuring our iconic Smiley Cookie.

To help us raise money for our Caring for Kids campaign, Burton has stepped in with a new design. Our Caring Hearts line of merchandise features his original art - and 10% of proceeds go to Caring for Kids. You'll find mugs, magnets, and pins at every Eat'n Park location. In addition, restaurants that normally carry apparel will be featuring Caring Hearts t-shirts and long-sleeve tees.

Stop in to pick yours up today - we have limited quantities!

Restaurant Activities

Every year, our team members pour their hearts into this campaign. Many of them donate their time (and sometimes, their tips) to organizing special events at our restaurants.

You may be familiar with our Tips for Tots nights, in which our team members and local celebrities donate the evening's tips to the campaign. Events like these are fun for everyone, and of course, they benefit a great cause.

We'll be updating the schedule of events every week, so check back often to see what's happening at your local Eat'n Park!
