Dine Around Maryland Club

wThe Restaurant Association of Maryland (RAM) has created the Dine Around Maryland Club to encourage people to try different restaurants across Maryland. The program is an incentive to diners to expand the number of restaurants that they regularly visit and also helps small businesses and their employees.

Dine Around Maryland Club Membership: $195

Membership in the Dine Around Maryland Club costs $195 and is valid from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026. Club sales will begin in November 2025 and may be purchased as a gift for others. Membership includes exclusive access to the Dine Around Maryland Club website, which provides a list of participating restaurants. These participating restaurants have agreed to give Dine Around Maryland Club members a one-time 50% discount on food purchases, for up to four people (see further explanations and restrictions below). A limited number of Dine Around Maryland Club memberships will be sold.

Dine Around Maryland Club App:

The Dine Around Maryland Club website account is an important component of the program; therefore, club members will not be able to access participating restaurants or receive the club member discount without it. Dine Around Maryland Club members agree to use the website in order to participate, and it cannot be used without a mobile device with an active mobile service plan. Access to the website and its features are provided; however, standard data and message rates from your mobile carrier may apply and are the user’s responsibility.

Upon purchasing a Dine Around Maryland Club membership, the Restaurant Association of Maryland will provide the information and link needed to download the website and create login credentials. The account shall be assigned to only one device per paid club membership. Multiple people, whether family members or friends, will not have access to the account, and it will not be transferable after the original login credentials are established.

Club memberships that are purchased for others are permitted. However, the purchaser must provide all required contact information for the recipient to the Restaurant Association of Maryland so that the club membership may be assigned to that individual.

By purchasing a Dine Around Maryland Club membership or receiving a club membership as a gift, you acknowledge and agree that your contact information will be made available to the Restaurant Association of Maryland and the participating restaurants. Your contact information will not be sold and will only be used for the Dine Around Maryland Club.

Once the Dine Around Maryland Club account and login credentials have been activated by the club member, there will be no refunds, and club membership is confirmed for the year 2026.

Participating restaurants agree to give Dine Around Maryland Club members:

• A one-time 50% discount on food ordered for in-person dining, for up to 4 people. Alcohol, catering, merchandise, tax, and gratuity are not included in the discount – food only.
• Establishments that do not offer in-person dining may choose to participate by offering a 50% discount on carry-out orders placed directly with the restaurant, not through a third-party app or delivery service.
• A Dine Around Maryland Club member will only be able to use their 50% discount at the same participating restaurant one time.
• Participating locations will be listed on the Dine Around Maryland Club website, therefore club members should check the website and be certain in advance that a location is participating. Prior lists of restaurants may not be accurate, however the website will be.
• Please understand that participating restaurants may change at any time. RAM is not responsible for any restaurant that decides to no longer participate in the program due to being sold, closed, or for any other reason.
• The Dine Around Maryland Club website will track all club member visits to participating restaurants. Club members will be required to show the website on their mobile device to an employee of the restaurant prior to ordering. A restaurant employee will be required to enter their unique restaurant code into the Club member's user account in order for the club member to receive the 50% discount. PLEASE NOTE: Each participating restaurant is responsible for applying the 50% discount to the club members’ check. The Dine Around Maryland Club website does not produce a bill or accept payments. Restaurants use many different point-of-sale systems, so the discount may be applied and/or look different at each restaurant.

Restrictions for Dine Around Maryland Club members:

• The club membership and discounts are not transferable and may not be shared. Once account login credentials are established, they are the only person who will be able to utilize the website and receive the discount.
• The discount still applies if fewer than four people are dining. However, four is the maximum number of people who can order and be included in the discount.
• Alcohol, catering, merchandise, tax, and gratuity are not included in the discount.
• Steamed crabs, all you can eat crabs, crab cakes, and Market Price items are not eligible for the discount.
• For dine-in establishments, club members may not place multiple food orders with the intention of taking meals “to-go.”
• The Dine Around Maryland Club discount may not be used in conjunction with other existing restaurant coupons, discounts, special offers, specialty menus, or prix fixe menus.

Important notes for Dine Around Maryland Club members:

• Please show your website account to a restaurant employee prior to ordering. This will confirm that the restaurant is participating, AND the discount code can be applied to your membership profile.
• Once you enter the restaurant code into your account on the website, you will not be able to receive the discount at that restaurant again.
• Please make it easy for the restaurant and their employees by having your entire order on one check, and do not request split checks. Some restaurants’ point of sale systems are unable to add a 50% discount, applied to food only, across multiple checks.
• Please tip your server on the total check amount BEFORE the discount is applied. Remember, you are receiving a significant discount of 50% but that discount should not negatively impact your server by unintentionally tipping on the lower amount. Again, some restaurants’ point-of-sale systems are unable to calculate the “suggested tip amount” based on the total before discounts, so your server will appreciate it if you confirm and tip appropriately!  Thank you!
