Ready for Takeoff on 8/11 Day
August 11 is a special day as it reminds us of the pioneering missions of Gemini 8 and Apollo 11 – both led by Purdue alumnus Neil Armstrong and inspiration for our name.
To celebrate this commemorative event, we’re offering an exclusive prix fixe dinner menu, honoring the flight achievements. 10% of revenue from the day will go to support Purdue Space Day.

Supporting Purdue Space Day
10% of every meal at 8Eleven on August 11 will be donated to Purdue Space Day – a Purdue tradition for 25 years.
Organized by university students, Purdue Space Day is a one-day educational outreach program that provides students in grades 3-8 the opportunity to learn about STEM by participating in activities featuring a space theme.
