Cafe Rio Mexican Grill Offers Free Meals in Olney, MD on June 22nd to Benefit the Hope for the Warriors Foundation

OLNEY, Md., June 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- What is better than delicious, fresh Mexican food from Cafe Rio Mexican Grill? FREE delicious Mexican food from Cafe Rio Mexican Grill while supporting a great cause! While most restaurants discount food and give out coupons, Cafe Rio Mexican Grill approaches customer appreciation in a different way. The newly opened Olney, Maryland restaurant, located at 3140 Olney Sandy Spring Road, will be offering free meals to customers all day. During this "free meal day," Cafe Rio Mexican Grill will be accepting donations to the Hope for the Warriors via a donation jar next to the cash register. One-hundred percent of those donations will be given to Hope for the Warriors once this busy day is over. Cafe Rio has experienced great success with free meal days in other locations.

The Olney, MD location will give free BURRITOS AND SALADS all day to their customers from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. on June 22, 2011.

The Olney, MD restaurant opened on April 27th and marked the first Cafe Rio Mexican Grill located on the East Coast. The response from customers has been remarkable and record-breaking for the Utah-based company. Cafe Rio Mexican Grill will open its second East Coast location in Manassas, VA on July 13th.

"We are so pleased that the first of many East Coast locations has been so well received by the people in and around the Olney community," states Cafe Rio Mexican Grill President Bob Baker. "We have always had the most loyal fans and customers, and the Olney community is no different. It is important to Cafe Rio and our team members to get involved in our local communities. By giving free meals and donating to great foundations such as Hope for the Warriors it allows us to give back the same support we receive on a daily basis."
