The Experience Economy: Top Restaurants Offering Fun Experiences

While the term “experience economy” has been around since the 1990s, it is clear that today people want more out of life and seek memorable, fun experiences. Many of EventUp’s successful restaurants are meeting a high demand for experiential services by offering wine pairings, cocktail classes, trivia events, and more. These activities not only make these restaurants the place to be, but these gatherings provide you a glimpse into their private dining and event offerings so you can plan your next party.

Let’s talk about a few of the amazing EventUp restaurants that have done a stand-up job in providing customers with wonderful experiences.

They are bringing on some daily smiles by hosting lots of experiential happenings around sports games, but we love that each evening, they have a happy hour with special cocktails. While this seems simple, it’s a great way to bring you in to enjoy their welcoming space and delicious menu items and keep a venue top of mind when you are planning a party.
