Bristol, VA. (November 1, 2018) — McAlister’s Deli®, a leading fast casual chain, will open its doors in Bristol at 1321 Euclid Avenue on Thursday, November 8, 2018 at 10:30 a.m. Known for its genuine hospitality, McAlister’s is home to handcrafted sandwiches, always-fresh salads, giant stuffed spuds, and McAlister’s Famous Sweet Tea™.

The first 50 guests in line on November 8, 2018 for the Grand Opening at 10:30 a.m. will receive a punch card allowing the holder to receive 1 free tea a week for 52 weeks. The restaurant will also be giving away prizes to guests dining there during the day-long celebration.

It is important for McAlister’s restaurants to give back to the communities they serve. A portion of the first week’s sales will be donated to The Junior League of Bristol TN/VA for the Thanksgiving Dinner Drive. This annual event provides full Thanksgiving meals and weekend-provisions to identified students within the Bristol, Virginia and Bristol, Tennessee school systems.

To also celebrate the opening, the Bristol McAlister’s, along with the Bristol Chamber of Commerce, will host a ribbon cutting on Thursday, November 15, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. There, the check will be presented for the upcoming Thanksgiving Dinner Drive.

Our team is just as excited as the Bristol community to finally be opening in the Twin-city.”

Taste of McAlister's

Knoxville, TN. (September 13, 2018) — Peak Restaurants participated in two community tasting events in early September: Taste of Turkey Creek and Taste of Blount. These community events are designed for locals to become acquainted with eateries in town and to raise money for charitable causes.

Taste of Turkey Creek is Knoxville’s premier tasting event and the Pat Summit Foundation’s biggest event of the year. It has raised, according to the event’s website, more than $75,000 to support its fight against Alzheimer’s disease. Peak’s Turkey Creek team set up a booth at the event, serving our Famous Tea and samples of our sandwiches.

At Taste of Blount, our Alcoa squad likewise set up a booth. There, we won the People’s Choice award for Best Beverage for the fourth year in a row.

We were happy to get out in the community and take part of both of these events. Thanks to the people in Turkey Creek and Blount County for allowing us the opportunity!
