Bethel Restaurant Week 2025 Begins Feb. 24 With Special Menus, Prizes

BETHEL, CT — Food lovers in Bethel will have the chance to sample some of the town’s best cuisine as Restaurant Week 2025 returns from Monday, Feb. 24, through Sunday, March 2.

Fourteen restaurants—spanning the Stony Hill area to Greenwood Avenue—are already set to participate, with more expected to join as the event nears. Throughout the week, diners can enjoy three-course, fixed-price menus, with lunch set at $29.95 and dinner at $49.95 (excluding beverages, tax, and gratuity). An exception is Dragonfly, an American fusion restaurant on Stony Hill Road, which will offer a $34.95 menu featuring chicken Milanese, Parmesan-crusted red snapper, and PEI mussels, along with soup or salad and dessert. A $12.95 lunch special with smaller portions from the regular menu will also be available.

New this year, diners have the chance to win $25 gift cards and surprise prizes, with more entries awarded the more they dine out. “The more you dine, the more chances you have to win,” said Janice Chrzescijanek, Bethel’s director of economic development. The event is co-sponsored by the Town of Bethel and the Chamber of Commerce.

Among this year’s participants is Whitlock’s, a casual eatery on Greenwood Avenue. Owner John Murray, who took over the restaurant two and a half years ago, has infused it with an Irish pub atmosphere. “Restaurant Week is a great opportunity to showcase our hearty menu and kick off the lead-up to St. Patrick’s Day,” Murray said.

A full list of participating restaurants and their special menus is available on the Bethel Chamber of Commerce website.
