Oxford and Lake Orion Restaurant Week combo

Oxford and Lake Orion Restaurant Week combo – Oxford and LO Restaurant weeks features more than 20 of the area’s finest restaurants.

Restaurant Week will take place for both towns. I really appreciate the effort they have put forth to promote their restaurants together. Not only do discounts during restaurant week provide tremendous savings, they give you an opportunity to try new restaurants you may not have ordinarily tried.
