Cafe Express Lunch + Look

Monday May 20, 2013

The Museum of Fine Arts is making the best of your lunch break. Rather than take another "working lunch" in front of your office computer, purchase lunch at the Cafe Express in the MFAH and receive a general admission ticket for free. The ticket is valid only on the day of purchase and entrance must be between 12 pm and 2 pm.

Not a fan of Cafe Express? Not a problem. There are plenty of food trucks on and around the museum grounds. Just be sure to save your receipt and pick up the Lunch + Look loyalty card before heading back to the museum. And if you're looking for other outdoor dining options, look no further. Be sure to check out other ways to add a little culture to your life this month.
