With the longest government shutdown in US history in effect, federal employees across the country have been without pay or furloughed.
As a result, several local bars and restaurants are offering discounts for affected federal employees.
Here’s the list; let us know if you find another location to add to the list.

Furloughed federal employees can get a complementary coffee and select breakfast if they bring in their government-issued employee ID.
