Cafe Racer‘s Athens location has been motoring along since it opened, but up until now, dinner was only available on Fridays. Starting on Tuesday, Feb. 6, it’ll be open six nights a week (Tuesday through Sunday) from 5–10 p.m. each night. The dinner menu is a bit different than the breakfast one and includes burgers, excellent fries and chicken tenders. Looking for a chance to check it out for free? Be one of the first 200 customers to snag breakfast there tomorrow morning (Sunday, Feb. 4) and you might get a golden ticket good for a free burger or loaded fries to redeem during the first week of expanded dinner service.
