Colton's Frequently Asked Questions

Online reservations require at least 24 hours of advance notice. If you need a table the same day, call your local Colton's location directly to check availability. Reservations are not accepted on Mother's Day, Father's Day, or Valentine's Day, so those holidays are walk-in only. Planning ahead on any other date gives you the best chance of securing the time you want.

Kids Eat Free is offered every Monday night. One paying adult can bring up to six children, making it one of the best weekly values for families in our communities. Check with your specific location to confirm current participation, as hours and details can vary slightly by store.

Happy Hour runs Monday through Friday from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. During that window, you get $2 off drinks and appetizers priced at $6.99. It is a solid option whether you are stopping in after work, catching a game at the bar, or looking for a relaxed early-evening meal. We always recommend confirming with your local store, as details can vary by location.

The Alpha Gal Menu is a specialized menu option for guests with Alpha-gal syndrome, a condition that causes an allergy to red meat and other mammalian products. Colton's offers this menu so those guests can enjoy a meal with family or a group without worrying about limited choices. Specific items are best confirmed with your location, as offerings can vary. Other specialized menus available include the Kids Menu, Nutrition Analysis, and Nutrition Calculator.

When you arrive for curbside, park in one of the reserved curbside spaces and call the restaurant directly. A team member will bring your order out to your vehicle. This differs from standard take-out, where you park in the reserved take-out spaces and come inside to collect your order. Not every location offers curbside service, and some locations have a 9:00 PM cutoff for curbside on weekends regardless of the posted closing time.

Colton's gift cards are valid at all 35 locations across Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. They can be purchased and shipped via USPS, with a maximum transaction amount of $250. There is no indication of an expiration date in current policies, making them a practical gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or any occasion.

Catering requests are handled through a custom inquiry form on the website. You will need to provide your name, contact information, the date of your event, your expected party size, and a general price range. This information helps the team put together an accurate proposal. Catering is available for both businesses and individuals, and is a popular choice for corporate functions, family celebrations, and community events.

Community involvement is a core part of how Colton's operates. The brand runs fundraiser nights for local nonprofits and organizations, and individual locations work to stay connected to the towns they serve. Colton's was built specifically for smaller markets, typically towns with populations between 10,000 and 15,000 people, so being a local fixture rather than just another chain restaurant matters to the brand. Details about upcoming fundraiser nights are best found through your local location.
