Calling all foodies, explorers, and weekend warriors: The Hillsborough Street Food Walk Passport is your summer guide to discovering new bites, shops, and hidden gems while exploring one of Raleigh’s most iconic streets — also while earning points, badges, and prizes.

How to play:

  1. Download the Vibemap mobile app from Apple or Google Play.
  2. Now through Monday, Aug. 11, make plans to hit up participating Hillsborough restaurants (some are even offering discounts). “Save” or “share” them directly in the app to plan ahead.
  3. Once you’re at the table, “check in” — then share food pics, leave menu pro tips, and spread the good vibes.
  4. Each action earns you points and unlocks badges like Check-In Champ, Vibe Spreader, and Local Scout. Gotta collect ‘em all.
  5. Look out for family-friendly events, monthly bonus challenges, and prize announcements to keep things fresh.

Getting there is the easy part (walk, scoot, ride, or park) — we’ll let you battle the group chat on which restaurant is up first.

Don’t forget your Passport
