Birthday Deals in Ann Arbor

Courtney Chandler  

Ann Arbor’s unique and diverse food scene offers plenty of options for birthday celebration. As a huge fan of birthdays (and always indulging myself on my own birthday), I set out to find the best birthday deals Ann Arbor has to offer. For those who didn’t realize it, the amount of discounts and free desserts I found was surprisingly extensive. As a result of my local Ann Arbor travels, I have complied a list of the best deals (for all meals) on your birthday. Plan ahead to embrace all Ann Arbor has to offer, and most importantly, enjoy your birthday! (Also, don’t forget to bring some form of identification with your birth date on it!)
