Veteran's Day Free or Discounted Dining Offers

 

Veteran's Day Free Meals and Discounts 

 

Many dining establishments offer free or discounted meals to military veterans on Veteran's Day. I've posted a few below, but visit The Military Wallet for more.

The Military Wallet has two notes:

• Proof of Military Service. Most companies require some form of military ID. These include: a Military ID Card (active/reserve/retired), Current Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), Drivers License with Veterans Designation, Photograph in uniform, be wearing uniform (if your service permits), Veterans Organization Card (e.g., American Legion and VFW), DD214, discharge paperwork, or other form of identification. Other restaurants and companies may go by the honor system.
• Participation. Second, always call ahead to verify locations, times, and participation. Many of the listed companies are franchises and may have different policies. We will do our best to keep this page updated as we find new info.
