GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., Sept. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tavern Double Tuesday is back! To celebrate the return of football, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (Red Robin) is kicking off a season-long promotion with the Seattle Seahawks to give fans and burger lovers alike an opportunity to earn free food at participating Red Robin^® restaurants in Washington and Oregon. Beginning with the first regular season game on Sept. 13, every Tuesday after the Seahawks score a red zone touchdown, a Tavern Double Tuesday promotion is triggered and Red Robin guests can tackle their hunger with a FREE* Red's Tavern Double Burger™ and Bottomless Steak Fries^® with the purchase of any burger, entree or salad and $5 appetizer.

"We're eager to get into the game and continue our partnership with the Seattle Seahawks to reward some of the best fans in football with free Red's Tavern Double Burgers," said Lee Dolan, senior vice president and chief marketing officer at Red Robin. "Last season, the Seahawks triggered a Tavern Double Tuesday promotion 15 out of 17 weeks and, whether at home or on the road, we look forward to celebrating the team's red zone success at local northwest Red Robin restaurants again this year."

Red Robin prides itself on offering fresh, high quality ingredients in every made-to-order meal and the Red's Tavern Double Burger with two fire-grilled, all-natural, domestic, USDA-certified beef patties is no exception. The burger, topped with melted American cheese, fresh lettuce and tomato with house-made Red's Secret Tavern Sauce on a toasted sesame bun, is available for an everyday value of $6.99 and is served with Red Robin's signature Bottomless Steak Fries.

In addition to reaping the benefits of the Seahawks' on-field success, from now through Dec. 27, Red Robin is offering limited edition Seahawks-branded $25 gift cards in six unique designs. Guests who purchase any of these limited edition gift cards at participating Washington and Oregon Red Robin restaurants will also receive an additional $5 bonus buck reward redeemable between Jan. 1 and Feb. 29, 2016.
