Just as they did last year, several national restaurant chains will offer food specials over the next couple of days to honor U.S. military veterans for their service.
Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill and Bar is inviting veterans and active-duty members of the military in on Veterans Day (Friday, November 11th) for a free Applebee’s Signature Entrée among seven menu favorites at all of the chain’s locations.
IHOP is offering free Red, White and Blue pancakes on November 11, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Golden Corral is hosting a Military Appreciation Day on Monday, November 14. The event will take place from 5 PM to 9 PM at all nationwide locations. Anyone who has served in the U.S. military, National Guard or Reserves will get a free buffet dinner and beverage.
Outback Steakhouse is providing active duty military, reserve, and military veterans a free Bloomin’ Onion and a non-alcoholic beverage on November 11. With ID, you’ll also receive 15% off your purchase from November 12- December 31, 2016.
O’Charley’s is offering a free entrée to veterans and active duty military personnel with proof of service on November 11, 2016.
Chipotle is offering Active duty military, Reserves, National Guard, veterans and spouses a buy-one-get-one (BOGO) deal from 3:00 p.m. to close on November 11, 2016.
Finally, Famous Dave’s Barbeque Restaurants is offering a free One Meat Salute. Veterans can choose one meat, a corn muffin, and a side. Proof of service is required.
Many more deals can be found here, but don’t be afraid to ask a restaurant if they are offering any Veterans Day discounts or specials. Remember, that in most cases, beverages are not part of any promotional meals and in no case is gratuity included. So don’t forget to tip your server/waiter based on the normal everyday price of the meal.
