The Bavarian Inn Restaurant, located in the city of Frankenmuth, Michigan, has improved its takeout options in response to the pandemic with the introduction of the Bavarian Boxed Bundle.
The takeout deal functions similarly to a food box subscription, as it allows users to select their preferred meals from a pre-determined selection, and can be adjusted to include either three, four, or five meals that they can enjoy throughout their week. Unlike a typical food box however, Bavarian Inn Restaurant does all the prep and cooking, so all customers have to do is pick up their order, reheat the food, and serve it.
Bavarian Boxed Bundle orders can be placed two days in advance over the phone or online, where a full menu is also available.
