Mount Pleasant’s “Dine Where You Live” campaign returns this February to keep culinary momentum local

Coming off the heels of Charleston Restaurant Week, the Town of Mount Pleasant and the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce (MPCC) are teaming up to keep the table set for local eateries. The fifth annual “Dine Where You Live” campaign officially kicks off February 1, encouraging residents to continue their support of the community’s unique food and beverage establishments throughout the month.

While regional events draw crowds to the Lowcountry, “Dine Where You Live” focuses on the long-term impact of supporting the friends, neighbors and family members who own and operate Mount Pleasant’s culinary scene.

“We’re excited to join forces once again with the MPCC for the Dine Where You Live campaign,” said Mayor Will Haynie. “We take pride in promoting ongoing support for Mount Pleasant’s food and beverage community and shining a spotlight on the numerous contributions they make to our town and the East Cooper area.”

To add some flavor to the month-long celebration, the Chamber will host weekly giveaways. Each week, one lucky diner will win a $50 gift card to a participating Mount Pleasant restaurant.

How to Enter:

1. Follow the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce on Instagram and like any “Dine Where You Live” post.

2. Tag a participating business where you want to dine.

3. Tag two friends you want to bring along for the meal.

“The MPCC is proud to partner with the Town of Mount Pleasant as we champion our local restaurants,” remarked MPCC President Ben Nesvold. “This is a fantastic way to enjoy our vibrant local cuisine while showing direct support for your favorite establishments. We invite all local restaurants to participate and encourage the community to help us make this our most successful year yet.”

Participation is open to all food and beverage businesses within the Mount Pleasant community. For a list of participating restaurants or to sign up your business, visit: mountpleasantchamber.org/biz-where-you-live.
