As a local business, it can be tough navigating the seasonality of economics in this town, especially when so much relies on tourism. That’s why it can help to offer incentives to keep people coming back, and make customers feel valued. Here are some Incline businesses that offer loyalty programs, clubs, happy hours, and more: 

• Incline Bak’d, 120 Country Club Dr. Ste. 28, Incline Village

Known for their incredible stromboli, pizza, and sandwiches baked on housemade breads, you can’t go wrong with anything on Incline Bak’d’s menu. Open Tuesday-Saturday from 11am-5pm, the best time to visit is from 3pm-5pm when happy hour is going on. During that time, buy a draft beer or wine and get a slice of pizza for only $2, or a pizza slice for $4 if you don’t get a drink. Be sure to indulge in a couple of delectable made-with-love cookies while you’re there…you can get two for $5 during Happy Hour. www.inclinebaked.com

• Glasses Wine Bar, 760 Mays Blvd. Ste. 8, Incline Village

On Tuesdays-Fridays from 3pm-6pm, Glasses Wine Bar also hosts a happy hour, offering customers 15 percent off glasses of wine ordered from behind the bar or 10 percent off to those out of the wine dispensers. Four varietal wine tastings are available during its Happy Hour as well, available at the bar only.

If you’re a high level wine enthusiast, the Glasses Wine Bar Wine Club also has two types of tiered subscriptions offered, costing between $95-$149 quarterly. Both tiers include four bottles of wine, discounts on merchandise/additional bottles of wine, free wine tastings, and more. Glasseswinebar.com 

• Gus’ Open Pit Barbecue, 930 Tahoe Blvd., Incline Village

Using a Santa Maria-method of grilling over red oakwood-fueled open pit, Gus’ has made a name for itself with its signature melt-in-your-mouth LATS (its smoked, grilled, and sauced-up chicken legs and thighs). Their open pit and relaxed indoor atmosphere with a full bar and 140” TV make Gus’s a popular shifter spot. Speaking of which…Gus’ has a happy hour from 4:30pm-5:30pm Thurs.-Mon. with beer, wine, and cocktail specials to pair with $2 street tacos. http://www.gusbbqtahoe.net/ 

• Happy Tiers Bakery, 868 Tahoe Blvd. #21, Incline Village

Marie Antoinette famously said, “let them eat cake!” which no doubt has me thinking that she’d be a fan of Happy Tiers’ Cake of the Month Club. Members of the club receive one gigantic piece of layered cake once a month for an entire year, which is perfect for sweet treat lovers and fans of cakemaker Andrea Jurss’s artistry. Memberships usually go on sale sometime in January and are limited to 25 participants. 

Happy Tiers also offers a variety of VIP packages for families and businesses who have regular celebrations throughout the year; packages include monthly gift cards and regularly distributed sweet treats for your employees and/or loved ones. www.happytiersbakery.com

Incline’s newest floral boutique, Wyld Peony, specializes in uniquely customized floral arrangements, capturing the thoughtfulness and beautiful personality of the giver and receiver. Holding a degree in environmental horticulture from UC Davis, Wyld Peony Owner Jen Weschler knows her stuff when it comes to flowers and takes your special event to the next level with her lovely bouquets. 

On top of that, you can give yourself or someone else the gift of flowers all year long with a Floral Subscription—having the freshest, seasonally available flowers arranged and delivered to you at intervals of your choosing. https://wyldpeony.com/

• Alibi Ale Works– Incline Public House, 931 Tahoe Blvd., Incline Village

Alibi Ale Works has a secret/not-so-secret club that rewards its beer lovers with exclusive benefits.

• Go2 Aroma Oxygen Bar

No matter how young, fit, or healthy a person is, altitude sickness can happen to anyone, and being at 6,220 feet above sea level can affect people differently. Therefore, if you find yourself spending a full day hiking, biking, or having an active day on the lake and afterwards feel sick or lightheaded, the Go2 Aroma Oxygen Bar is there to give you a boost. Fifteen different aromatic treatments are available on the oxygen bar aroma menu and one 10-minute session can get your energy levels back to 100 percent. 

If you’re a fan of oxygen bars, Go2 Aroma Oxygen Bar also sells gift cards so you can save on multiple sessions. https://www.oxygenbartahoe.com/
