Urban Pro Weekly (UPW), in partnership with Yelp Augusta, is proud to once again present Augusta Black Restaurant Week on June 13-19, 2022. This annual event takes pride in highlighting some of the area's black-owned eateries and chefs, while giving patrons an opportunity to partake in specialty or signature items for the week.

Since its inception in 2021, UPW has endeavored to strengthen our community by bringing attention to some of the small businesses in the area hit the hardest by the global Covid-19 pandemic. Although financial relief was issued, the disparity between independent Black-Owned businesses, as compared to others, was seen and felt across the nation - even MORE in the small business sector. For this reason, Augusta Black Restaurant Week (ABRW) was established.

New to the 2022 ABRW experience are prix fixe options from each partner and a collaboration with personal and executive chefs, food trucks, and stalls to provide a unique culinary experience. Participating food partners listed below and at augustarestaurantweek.com.

The Inaugural Augusta Black Restaurant Week July 20-25, 2021 celebrates and supports African-American- owned restaurants and eateries, and the role they play in socioeconomic progress.  All Greater Augusta restaurants were severely impacted by Covid-19, but many Black-owned businesses were overlooked in relief funding initiatives.

Participating restaurants, listed below, craft their offers separately - whether a menu item, or a discount, or an unexpected selfie photobomb. Like the food, each restaurant experience is unique and special. Guests who post selfies with #augustarestaurantweek are eligible to win an exclusive package from our host partners: Urban Pro Weekly, Growing Augusta: Arts, Agriculture, & Agency; and Pop-Up Augusta!

All are encouraged to patronize these businesses well beyond this special promotion. All restaurants are in Richmond County, Augusta, Georgia, unless indicated in parens.
