The Delicious Card: Rad Discounts at 30+ SF Restaurants

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

The front of The Delicious Card (drawn by Amos Goldbaum). You’ll be getting an actual physical card mailed to you.

I am extremely excited to be announcing The Delicious Card! For just $10 a month you can get awesome discounts at over 30 of your favorite SF eateries. It’s also a great way to explore new places you haven’t dined at before.

The back of The Delicious Card

We all know the struggles local restaurants are facing these days between rising costs, rent increases, and shady delivery apps. That’s why I decided to launch a club that gets people off their couches and into San Francisco’s excellent eateries. And by becoming a member of this cool-ass club, you’re doing a double mitzvah since you’ll also be supporting independent journalism by helping keep BrokeAssStuart.com alive! It’s a win-win for everyone.

To join, all you have to do is become a member of the Broke-Ass Stuart Patreon at $10 a month. We’ll then mail you a an actual physical card that looks like the image above. You can use The Delicious Card all over town as many times as you want.

On top of that, your $10 a month will also get you strange postcards sent by me throughout the year, exclusive member only emails, and your name on the “Wall of Thanks” on my website. And there’s even more perks if you join at a tier that’s higher than $10! If you’re a restaurant owner who wants to be on the card email me at Stuart@BrokeAssStuart.com
