Bonus: You’ll also receive invites to exclusive pre-opening parties and events. Use code “NASHTODAY” to skip the waitlist and try a monthly or annual membership.*
Correction
  • On Friday, we accidentally called 312 Pizza Company, a partner of restaurant membership club Offline, “321 Pizza Company.” Fun fact: 312 has been an area code for the city of Chicago since 1995, and the restaurant’s pizza recipe comes from the Little Italy neighborhood of Chicago. Our apologies for the mix-up.
