These 40 Restaurants Are Offering Veterans Free Meals and Discounts on Veterans Day
Over 100 restaurant chains nationwide honor veterans and active-duty military with free meals and discounts on Veterans Day as a tribute to their service.
- On Tuesday, Nov. 11, veterans and active-duty military members can get free meals or discounts at participating U.S. restaurants including Chili's, Wendy's, Arby's, and Sheetz.
- The holiday's history matters, and many offers require ID because Veterans Day evolved from Armistice Day and was renamed in 1954; proof like a Veteran ID Card or DD214 is often needed.
- Notably, several brands pair free meals with charitable actions, with Benihana offering free entrees up to $59 and Blaze Pizza donating $1 per pizza to Folds of Honor.
- Redemption rules often limit how and when customers claim deals, with most offers requiring a valid military ID, many being dine-in only, and some limited to specific hours like TGI Fridays' 11 a.m.–7 p.m. and Sizzler's until 4 p.m.
- Several chains extend perks beyond Veterans Day, with Salad and Go launching a 10% discount from Nov. 12, BJ's offering a bounce-back through Dec. 31, and Lime Fresh Mexican Grill providing a $50 Challenge Coin for year-round meals.
