Schlotzsky’s Alpharetta restaurant will offer free family meals to the community on Friday evening. Meals include a pepperoni pizza, cheese pizza, garden salad and cookies. The pizzas are 10 inches in size. The free meals will be given out from 5-7 p.m. at the restaurant drive-thru and curb-side pickup areas.

Alpharetta Schlotzsky’s is located at 3345 Old Milton Parkway.

Jennifer Bodner with Schlotzsky’s public relations said the offer is a way of showing gratitude to Alpharetta neighbors. Restaurants are limited to takeout and delivery service during the city’s state of emergency and the coronavirus outbreak.

“We are all trying to figure out ways of how we can support the community,” said Bodner. “The community has been very supportive of Schlotzsky’s and we just wanted to give back.
