We’re building out Late Checkout’s October editorial calendar, and as always, we’re open to pitches.
A quick reminder: Late Checkout covers food, drink, and travel through a cultural lens. Trend-driven, timely, and tied to hospitality. If it’s lighting up group chats, showing up in restaurants, hotels, or design spaces, or crossing over into culture in a fun way, we want to hear it.
We pay $150 flat for 200 words
U.S.-based only (tax rules!)
Portfolio link required
Follow our format + voice (fun, fresh, Gen Z–approved)
Please, please read our Pitching Guidelines before sending anything over. It’s the best way to make sure your pitch gets seen and considered.
