Red Robin’s Better Schools Program

We have probably all heard it. You know those commercials about Red Robin where at the end you hear singing: “Red Robin… YUMMM^®!” I know that you know what I am talking about right?

When I told my family that we were heading off to eat at Red Robin for the first time, every single kid sang, “Red Robin… YUMMM^®!” at the same time my husband did. We definitely knew the tagline and now it was time to try the restaurant.

As the busy mother of three children, I am heavily involved in raising funds for the schools that my kids go to and I especially love when businesses in the community give back. We actively search out businesses that do that. Red Robin offers their Burgers for Better Schools Program.

ABOUT RED ROBIN'S BETTER SCHOOLS PROGRAM

Now you can join Red Robin Royalty program and earn money for your school. The way that it works is that 1% of each Red Robin Royalty members check (less tax, tip and gift card) will be donated to the school of their choice. In fact, any 501c3 school (K-12) is eligible and most of these schools are already in their system. Members must be registered at the time of transaction to give the funds.

THE FOOD AT RED ROBIN

I had to add to this post to share with you about the food at Red Robin. As I said earlier, this was our first visit to the restaurant. We were completely blown away with how delicious everything was. I have to share that we absolutely loved it. Our burgers were perfectly cooked and the sides were really good. My kids loved the bottomless rootbeer floats and we all loved the donuts we shared for dessert. They really did a great job. Even our server was wonderful. We went back just a few days later because it was so great.
