Eat Drink HTX 2024: Dine Locally, Give Generously Through February 29
Calling all food lovers! The third annual Eat Drink HTX, presented by The Cleverley Stone Foundation, is now underway and will run until the 29th of February. With over 170 participating eateries across the Greater Houston Area, this event aims to encourage people to dine locally, while raising crucial funds for community non-profits.
Cypress area foodies can raise their forks close to home at participating restaurants like Salt & Sugar Gastro Bar, Orange Lee's PoBoys & Wings, and Cabo Bob's Burritos, to name just a few. Eat Drink HTX not only brings a boost to local businesses during historically slower periods, but it also raises funds for two incredible organizations: the Houston Food Bank and DePelchin Children’s Center.

The impact of inflation has hit lower-income, working families particularly hard, and, "Funds raised from this event will help bring food to the table and improve the wellbeing of the families that we serve," said Brian Greene, President and CEO of the Houston Food Bank.
On the other hand, DePelchin Children's Center supports and sustains children and the families who care for them. "Funds raised by Eat Drink HTX will help DePelchin Children’s Center provide guidance and support to vulnerable children and the families who care for them," said Jennifer Jarriel, President and CEO of the DePelchin Children’s Center.
Pricing for Eat Drink HTX is designed with accessibility in mind, with a prix fixe brunch or lunch at $15 and dinner at $25. Participating restaurants will donate $1 per brunch or lunch sold, and $3 per dinner, directly benefiting Houston Food Bank and DePelchin Children’s Center.
