One Loudoun Restaurant Week runs each March in Ashburn. 2027 dates are not out; 2026 ran March 21-28 with deals at about 15 restaurants and shops.
Last checked Oct. 19, 2026. This page is updated each year. Every fact comes from the event pages of Downtown One Loudoun, which runs Restaurant Week.
One Loudoun Restaurant Week is a March tradition in Ashburn, and the 2027 dates have not been announced. The last edition ran March 21-28, 2026: a week of special menus, limited-time deals and giveaways at the restaurants, cafes and a few shops of One Loudoun, Ashburn’s walkable downtown.
There is no ticket and no pass. You walk in or book with each restaurant and order its Restaurant Week menu or deal. In past years One Loudoun asked diners to mention Restaurant Week to get the discount.

Getting there and parking
One Loudoun’s restaurants are spread along Exchange Street and around the central plaza. Parking is in the street spaces and garages around the downtown; our One Loudoun guide has the details and the towing number. Plan to park once and walk, since most of the participating restaurants are within a few blocks of each other.
What to know
- Lunch is cheaper. Matchbox’s three-course lunch was $15 less than its dinner in 2026.
- Ask for the Restaurant Week menu when you sit down; in 2024 and 2025 One Loudoun said diners had to mention it to get the discount.
- Promo codes at South Block and some counter-service spots run through their apps or rewards accounts, so set those up before you go.
- Alcohol pairings are 21 and over only.
