one of the largest casual dining chains in the country announced the availability of their exciting new app. While many restaurants have mobile apps, TGIFridays is the first national casual dining chain to include mobile payments as part of the app.
Now, with the new app, customers can order on their phone while in the restaurant, and then pay the bill via their phone.
