October 15, 2026
The official dates for Dine About Park City are October 1 to 31, 2026. Restaurant by restaurant, the calendar looks different. Several participants started late, several stop early, and only between Monday, October 12, and Saturday, October 24, can you book any offer on the roster. Today is October 10, so that window opens in two days.
The 14th annual Dine About is run by the Park City Area Restaurant Association. Prices come in fixed tiers: two-course lunches at $15, $20 or $25, three-course dinners at $30, $45 or $65, and $20 après specials with a cocktail and a small plate. KPCW's October 7 coverage gave the dinner tiers as "$35 or $65." The official Dine About page and the Park Record both list $30, $45 and $65, and those are the prices used here.
The roster has grown since the Park Record printed it on September 23. The official page now lists 29 restaurants, including four that were not in the Park Record's list: Luna's Kitchen & Juicery, Silver Star Cafe, Riverhorse on Main and Café Terigo. KPCW counted 37 participating eateries across Summit County, so a few more may still appear.
Most participants run the full month. These are the ones that don't:
| Restaurant | Dine About dates | What's offered |
|---|---|---|
| LOMA | Oct 2–31 | $45 dinner |
| Luna's Kitchen & Juicery, Snow Creek | Oct 5–31 | $20 lunch |
| Red Rock Brewing | Oct 5–31 | $20 lunch, $45 dinner |
| Riverhorse on Main | Oct 6–31 | $65 dinner |
| Timbers Bar & Restaurant, Sidewinder Dr | Oct 12–31 | $20 après, $45 dinner |
| Fletcher's Park City | Oct 1–24 | $65 dinner |
| Cena Ristorante & Lounge, The Chateaux | Oct 1–25 | $25 lunch, $65 dinner |
| The 7880 Club at Stein Eriksen Residences | Oct 1–25 | $25 lunch, $65 dinner |
| 350 Main Brasserie | Oct 1–28 | $65 dinner |
| Handle | Oct 1–30 | $20 après, $65 dinner |
| Shabu | Oct 1–30 | $65 dinner |
| Café Terigo, 424 Main St | Oct 1–30 | $65 dinner |
Timbers is the last restaurant to join, on October 12, and Fletcher's is the first to leave, after October 24. Every offer on the official roster is available only between those two dates. Before Timbers starts, one après option is missing. After Fletcher's ends, the $65 dinners start dropping off: Fletcher's on the 24th, then Cena and the 7880 Club on the 25th, 350 Main on the 28th, and Handle, Shabu and Café Terigo on the 30th.
Après follows the same pattern. KPCW names four restaurants offering the $20 drink-and-bite special: Handle, Alpine Distilling, Sterling Steak and Lounge, and Timbers. With Timbers starting on the 12th and Handle ending on the 30th, all four run at the same time only from October 12 to 30.
Dine About covers the whole Park City area, from KITA at the Pendry in Canyons to Deer Valley Café on Deer Valley Drive. Historic Main Street still has the tightest cluster. Here are the confirmed Main Street addresses, from the bottom of the hill up:
Two more have Main in their names and shorter windows. Riverhorse on Main started its $65 dinner on October 6, and 350 Main Brasserie ends its $65 dinner on October 28. Grappa, Handle and Tupelo are also on the roster with dinner offers, Handle until October 30 and the other two until the 31st.
Taken together, the list lets you do a full evening without moving the car. You could have the $20 après at Alpine Distilling near the bottom of the street, then walk up to Bangkok Thai for the $45 three-course dinner, for $65 a person. At the top end, one person at Café Terigo or Pine Cone Ridge pays $65 for dinner alone. On any night from October 12 to 24, every one of those options is open.
Lunch on Main Street costs $20 at Flanagan's and $25 at Bangkok Thai or Le Depot. The lowest prices on the roster are off Main. Squatters Roadhouse Grill & Bar at 1900 Park Ave has the $15 lunch and the $30 dinner, both all month. Hearth and Hill lists a $20 three-course lunch, which is a course more than the standard two-course lunch format.
After the 24th, the calendar thins out, and the end of the month adds a street closure. Halloween falls on a Saturday this year. Halloween on Main Street runs from 3 to 6 p.m., with trick-or-treating offered by participating merchants. Main Street closes to cars starting at 2 p.m. The Historic Park City Alliance's event page lists $15 flat-rate parking at China Bridge. It also lists free parking at the Richardson Flat Park-and-Ride, with buses every 10 minutes from 2:15 p.m. and the last bus leaving the Old Town Transit Center at 7:45 p.m.
That makes October 31 a hard night for a quiet $65 dinner up the hill. Pine Cone Ridge, Le Depot and Bangkok Thai list their offers through the 31st, but they're inside the closure zone. Café Terigo's offer ends the night before. Friday, October 30, is also on the Historic Park City events calendar for the Last Friday of the Month Gallery Stroll. It's the final night for Handle, Shabu and Café Terigo, and the street is still open to cars.
The main reason Dine About exists is the gap between this month and ski season. Park City Area Restaurant Association Executive Director Ginger Wicks told KPCW that the program "brings diners to eateries during a traditionally slower time of year," and called it "a great way for locals to get out and enjoy the restaurants." In the Park Record announcement, she described it as a chance for restaurants "to thank the community for their year-round support."
The slow stretch runs past October. Park City Mountain has set November 20, 2026 as its target opening day, and TownLift notes the date depends on weather and snow. Deer Valley lists Saturday, December 5, 2026, as its opening day. That leaves nearly three weeks between the last Dine About offer and the first chairlift at Park City Mountain, and more than a month before Deer Valley opens. Some restaurants take a seasonal break in that gap. Dos Olas Cantina's website announces a break from October 3 to November 18 but doesn't print a year, so check directly before planning around it.
From Monday, October 12, through Saturday, October 24, every Dine About offer runs at the same time. The official roster has each restaurant's menu and reservation link.
I live in Old Town, and the October calendar shapes Main Street the same way the ski calendar does. If you're wondering how the shoulder season affects a condo's rental calendar or a quiet week to list, Cameron Boone can walk you through it over one of those $20 après specials. Let's Connect.
