This Small Business Saturday, we're spreading some holiday cheer and love to our favorite group of small businesses: restaurants!
Finding the perfect holiday gift for your loved ones is hard and gifting a last-minute Prime deal from Amazon seldom feels sentimental. The best parts of the holiday season come from spending time with people you love and that often happens around a dinner table - both at home and at your favorite restaurant.
When you think "gifts from a restaurant," you might think you're limited to just gift cards. But thanks to COVID challenging our community to pivot from only offering in-house dining, many restaurants now sell merch and food gifts, which all help benefit their bottom line.
With this in mind, this year we want to give back to those who do so much for us, often sacrificing their own holiday time to make our holiday food dreams come true. So, we've compiled a MarginEdge Holiday Gift Guide! Below you will find gifts for everyone on your gift list, and maybe even a few for yourself.
