Election season is almost over. Make the most of Election Day by picking up a few free treats and special deals just for voters. Here’s where you can find food and drink specials on November 5.
Election Mini Boxes at Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken
Order ahead for these celebratory doughnuts. The Election Mini Box comes with a dozen patriotically decorated doughnuts. It comes with five flavors, including Vanilla, Creme Brulee, Candy Apple, Pumpkin Pie, and Chocolate Chip. If you don’t need the whole box, go for the “I Voted” Vanilla doughnut, which is available for pre-order and in-store while supplies last. Orders must be placed by 2 p.m. for next-day pickups. 4001 Campbell Ave., Arlington; $35 for Election Mini Box; $4.95 for “I Voted” doughnut
Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar
When you dine at a Lazy Dog location, show your “I Voted” sticker to receive a free handcrafted nonalcoholic beverage with any entrée purchase.

Neutral Ground Bar + Kitchen
Head for Neutral Ground for a non-partisan celebration. Neutral Ground’s Purple-hued Flower Power cocktail is the way to go.

On November 5, visit any restaurant under the Thompsons Restaurants umbrella to receive 10 percent off your meal when you show your “I Voted” sticker. Restaurants include Big Buns, Hen Quarter, Wiseguy Pizza, Makers Union, and more. Multiple locations
