Hillsborough Announces 9th Annual Restaurant Week Event extended to 10 days by popular demand

HILLSBOROUGH TOWNSHIP, NJ —Hillsborough eateries are invited to participate in the Ninth Annual Restaurant Week.

Running from Thursday, September 24th, through Sunday, October 4th, Restaurant Week is an opportunity for local eateries to promote their diverse culinary masterpieces through a well-publicized event. The event is hosted by the Hillsborough Business Association (HBA), an offshoot of the Hillsborough Business and Economic Development Office.

“We are very pleased to announce that Hillsborough Township’s 9th Annual Restaurant Week will take place beginning September 24th,” said Mayor Catherine Payne. “This annual tradition has been growing in popularity over the years and is now one of Hillsborough Township’s highly anticipated and well-received community events. In fact, it’s so popular that it now lasts 10 days so patrons can take advantage of more restaurant offerings.”

Restaurant Week 2026 promises sweet and savory items to appeal to all palates, available for both dine-in and take-out. Each participant chooses what incentive they will offer to customers: prix fixe menus, tasting menus, special menu items, complimentary items, or a discount. Restaurant Week includes breakfast and lunch options for those establishments that serve these meals.

Interested restaurants are encouraged to register for Restaurant Week 2026 on the Restaurant Week web page. Participation is free, and benefits include advertisement on the Hillsborough Township website, local signage, and promotion on the Township’s social media. Other benefits include the opportunity to showcase menu items and the ability to attract both new and returning patrons from Hillsborough and surrounding communities. 

In addition to feasting on special menu items from local restaurants, participating residents are invited to share photos of their Restaurant Week experiences on social media under the hashtag #HBRW26.
