Every February, Black History Month reminds us of the year-round significance of supporting Black-owned businesses and highlighting their contributions to our communities. We’ve made it easy for you by gathering a number of Black-owned coffee shops, bars, and restaurants, from celebrated chef Kristi Brown’s Communion and Lil’ Brown Girl to the nationally recognized barbecue destination Lil Red Takeout and Catering. For more ideas, check out our Black History Month calendar and our food and drink guide.
