As America marks its 250th birthday on July 4th, brands are rising to the occasion with limited-time offerings designed to match the magnitude of the milestone, including Dave & Buster's, debuting a three-tier Pretzel Dog Tower. The limited-time, larger-than-life, made-to-share Pretzel Dog Tower is the focus of Dave & Buster's week-long celebration honoring America's 250th birthday, and it comes stacked with signature pretzel dogs, plus crispy fries and frazzled onions.
The Dave & Buster's Pretzel Dog Tower will be available for $50 at select locations nationwide from June 29th to July 5th, perfect for families and groups, and pre-fireworks festivities. Surrounding Independence Day, Dave & Buster's is introducing all-day events and special deals like the Early Bird All-Day Unlimited Game Play offer for $2.50, one of the most affordable ways to celebrate the country's birthday.
