Diners Across Five States Join in Supporting Living Beyond Breast Cancer with the Pink Kiss Martini

Columbia (Sept. 30, 2025) – For the 15th consecutive year, in recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, CentraArchy Restaurants continues its annual “Pink Kiss for the Cure” campaign throughout October.

All CentraArchy Restaurants in five states are offering the limited-edition Pink Kiss martini with 50 percent of the sales going directly to breast cancer research and care.

As in 2022 through 2024, this year’s Pink Kiss campaign contributions will go to the national nonprofit Living Beyond Breast Cancer, an organization on mission for over 30 years to provide trusted information and a community of support to those impacted by the disease, offering on-demand emotional, practical and evidence-based content that is meaningful to those newly diagnosed, in-treatment, post-treatment and living with metastatic disease.

“In the first 14 years, thousands of our guests generously raised over $275,000 for the Pink Kiss for the Cure campaign,” said CentraArchy CEO Vince Van Brunt. “This is an important tradition for all eight of our restaurant brands at 15 Southeast locations—we hope our 15th year is another tremendous success in support of the great work by the team at Living Beyond Breast Cancer.”

To participate, guests simply order the “Pink Kiss” at any CentraArchy Restaurant, including California Dreaming (Augusta, Ga., Charleston, S.C., Columbia, S.C., Greenville, S.C., Spanish Fort, Ala., and Surfside Beach, S.C.), Carolina Roadhouse (Myrtle Beach, S.C.), Chophouse ’47 (Greenville, S.C.), Chophouse New Orleans and Bon Ton Prime Rib in La., Gulfstream Café (Garden City, S.C.), Joey D’s Oak Room (Atlanta) or New York Prime (Atlanta, Boca Raton, Fla. and Myrtle Beach, S.C.).
