Black Friday restaurant FAQ

When is Black Friday in Canada?

Black Friday is the Friday after U.S. Thanksgiving, which falls on the fourth Thursday of November, so it lands between November 23 and 29. Cyber Monday is the following Monday. Neither day is a statutory holiday in Canada.

Do Canadian restaurants have Black Friday deals?

Mostly as gift card bonuses. Restaurant chains add a bonus card, a voucher or a free-item coupon when you buy a gift card, and these offers usually start in early November and run past Black Friday to December 31, so the day itself is rarely the deadline.

Can you use a restaurant bonus card right away?

Usually not. Most bonus cards and coupons from holiday gift card offers can only be used from early January to the end of February or March, and some cannot be used on the day of purchase. The dates are printed on the card or coupon.

Do restaurant bonus cards expire?

Usually, yes. Most gift cards bought in Canada do not expire, but promotional cards, which include most bonus cards, often have an expiry date, and the rules differ by province.

Do online gift card purchases get the bonus?

At some restaurants only. Several chains give the bonus on in-restaurant purchases only, others include e-gift cards bought on their own website, and cards sold at grocery stores or pharmacies usually do not qualify.

Which restaurants have Black Friday specials in 2026?

As of November 13, 2026: Harvey's (Free burger coupon with a $25 gift card); Boston Pizza (Free $10 promo card with a $50 gift card); Mr. Sub (Free small sub with a $30 gift card); Swiss Chalet (Free Quarter Chicken Dinner with $50 in gift cards), plus 14 more. Each special lists its dates, price, conditions and the official source we checked.

What restaurant deals run on Black Friday?

626 regular deals (lunch deals, happy hour and more) run from November 27 to November 30, for example Harvey's: $3 First Burger on the App ($3), Mr. Sub: MR.SUB Rewards: 10th Sub Free (FREE) and Swiss Chalet: Family PAKs from $39.99 (FROM $39.99). They are everyday or weekly offers rather than Black Friday promotions, so check each one's conditions.

About Black Friday

Black Friday is the Friday after U.S. Thanksgiving, and Cyber Monday follows three days later. Neither is a holiday in Canada. Canadian restaurant chains rarely discount food for the day itself: what they sell that weekend is gift cards with a bonus, a separate promotional card, voucher or free-item coupon you get for buying a gift card, as part of holiday offers that usually run from early November to December 31.

Compare bonuses by dividing the bonus by what you spend to earn it: $20 on $100 and $10 on $50 both return 20 cents per dollar. Then read the dates and channels. Most bonus cards can only be used from January to March, some only for dine-in or for food, many are limited to one per table or visit, and several chains give the bonus only on purchases made in the restaurant rather than on e-gift cards.

The regular deals listed below the specials are the ones that run from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, including lunch, happy hour, app and takeout offers, if you want to plan a meal around holiday shopping.
