Rocky Hill Restaurant Receives Grant As Part Of DoorDash Program

ROCKY HILL, CT — A Rocky Hill restaurant was recently named as part of a total 92 Connecticut restaurants to receive a one-time financial grant under the DoorDash "Main Street Strong Pledge," the Connecticut Restaurant Association announced.

The Rocky Hill restaurant receiving funds is Mitchell's Coffee House.

DoorDash's $200 million, 5-year Main Street Strong Pledge, is a program to help restaurants, merchants, "dashers" and communities in select cities in the United States and Canada. The restaurant component includes the $10 million grant program.

The Connecticut Restaurant Association is teaming up with DoorDash on the initiative, referred to as the Connecticut Restaurant Relief Fund; under the program, struggling restaurants impacted by the coronavirus pandemic can apply for grants of up to $5,000.

"We continue to be humbled and honored by the opportunity to support local economies, particularly to help create greater access and opportunity everywhere we operate," DoorDash officials said in a statement.
