Now through Dec. 31, from 4 p.m.

to close, when groups get into the holiday spirit at any Bar Louie location, their DD will be rewarded with free Coke products all night. Bar Louie’s front-of-house staff have been trained to recognize when guests aren’t ordering alcoholic drinks due to their driving responsibilities. Once recognized, the server will tell the guest about the program, thank them for their dedication to safety and notify the manager to comp all of their non-alcoholic Coke products for the remainder of their visit.
