Yes, they do! Each city’s tin contains the same 20+ restaurants or hot spots we’ve selected for the year. The list changes annually, but we always make sure to include a minimum of 20. You can see a list of participating venues in each tin on the product page of our website.

For our first decade (and prior to the pandemic), CityTins maintained a "Dine-In only" clause on our coasters because it truly makes a difference for the restaurants; they profit most from diners dining in. Post-pandemic, we all want to support locally-owned venues so we added a takeout option where you can save $5 off your $30 takeout tab.

It is our policy that coasters be relinquished with your tab. A few restaurants, however, have chosen to implement a system whereby they mark a coaster as used and return it to you. Sometimes a “Diner’s Choice” coaster is eligible at both locations featured, but it is strictly at the discretion of each participating restaurant.

If you are using CityTins on takeout, be sure to bring your coaster with you at pickup!

Simply turn in your coaster gift card at the featured restaurant when your bill is presented. You will receive $10 off your tab of $30 or more for dine-in ($5 off $30 on takeout), excluding tax or gratuity.

We do ask that you don't double-up at a table or try to combine multiple coasters at the same venue, and it may not be combined with other offers like a happy hour.

Lastly, there are no blackout dates, no food or beverage exclusions, no nonsense.

All CityTins available for purchase are valid in the calendar year for which they are published (see the year listed on the cover or the fine print on each coaster gift card) and expire on December 31st of that year.

All venues included in CityTins are in good standing and fully operational at the time of signing. Due to economic or any otherwise unforeseen circumstance with individual venues, CityTins is not liable for unredeemable coasters due to restaurant closures.

We sure do! Just send us your name and information about your cause. We receive many requests and do our best to honor them but may not be able to in all cases. You will be notified in a timely manner if we can honor your request.

CityTins was designed specifically for use as a fundraiser—and we've made it easy to manage. By selling CityTins, your group supports local and also keeps 33% of all sales.  You can see details HERE on our website, or send us an email for more info. CityTins has proudly donated more than $450,000 to schools and nonprofits in the communities we serve.

We typically issue tins for the upcoming year on October 1st, just in time for holiday gift giving. You can always purchase tins on our website, or at a local retailer.
