The restaurant brand, owned by Elias Leisring, posted on its Facebook page on the evening of June 2 letting folks know that they will be offering a free meal and beverage to black members of the community on June 3 at both of their Cincinnati locations.

Within the post, they explained that they wanted to “help how we can, and how we know how to help best.”
