Best credit card to use at TGI Fridays.

Dining

TGI Fridays operates around 350 US casual-dining restaurants with a bar-and-grill format that helped define the category, anchored by Loaded Potato Skins, Jack Daniel's Sesame Chicken Strips, and a full cocktail program. The chain has contracted from its 1990s peak but remains a recognizable airport and suburban brand. Fridays transactions code as dining/ restaurants on every credit card, including bar tabs and to-go orders. Dining-bonus cards earn full rate: Amex Gold at 4x, Chase Sapphire Reserve at 4x, Capital One SavorOne at 3% cash.
