Manchester, NH – The Red Arrow Diner is celebrating 100 years of operation in Manchester throughout 2022. To kick-off its commemorative plans, the restaurant is offering monthly menu discounts corresponding to popular foods of each decade over the past century and is conducting a Facebook campaign to honor other local businesses.
Spaghetti and meatball plates, popular in the 1920s, are available at a discounted rate during the month of February. March will feature a macaroni and cheese bar with one free topping to honor the 1930s. April’s special will be a 1940s-style meatloaf dinner at a discounted rate and May will offer a 1950s meal: a tuna melt with one extra side for free. In June, Belgian waffles popularized during the 1960s will be available with one free topping. These specials will be honored at all four Red Arrow Diner locations in Manchester, Concord, Londonderry and Nashua.
The Red Arrow Diner will also recognize the contributions of 100 local businesses on its Facebook page throughout the year. The public is asked to nominate New Hampshire-owned businesses of any industry for consideration.
“Along with my co-owners George Lawrence and Amanda Wihby, I’m proud to carry on the Manchester legacy of the Red Arrow Diner started by David Lamontagne in 1922,” said Carol Lawrence, Co-Owner and President, Red Arrow Diner. “Our ability to remain a strong local business is directly related to the support of our customers and the greater community, and we are excited to give back with these menu discounts and public recognitions of our fellow business owners.”
