Happy Veterans Day! Veterans Day is celebrated this year on Friday, Nov. 11, 2022. The federal holiday will be on the same day.
Many restaurants and companies thank our veterans each year by offering them discounts or a free meal. There are also dozens of retail offers on Veterans Day and many free events and attractions.
To those companies offering veterans a free meal or discount, the military community gives a collective thanks!
Below you’ll find a continuously updating list of this year’s restaurant offers for veterans. Last year over 100 restaurants participated. Most restaurants announce offers at the end of October, up through Veterans Day. We will update this page daily.
2022 Veterans Day Free Meals & Discounts
Many restaurants offer free meals on different days throughout the year. We will do our best to list them in a way that will help you find the offers by date, as well as by alphabetical order. So we will list three sections: Free Meals Before Veterans Day, Free Meals on Veterans Day, and Free Meals After Veterans Day.
We will post updates for Veterans Day 2022 as deals are confirmed. Many meals and discounts will return from last year. Some deals have yet to be confirmed for 2022.
Please verify participation. We have done our best to include sources and links to each brand when possible. However, due to local restrictions, not all locations may be participating. Please call ahead to verify participation.
Without further ado, here is our list of free Veterans Day meals. Stay tuned as we are frequently updating this page as offers become available, and check-in with your locations for dates, participation, and availability.

Tipping
This one may be a no-brainer, but you should tip your server thoughtfully regardless of whether you ate a free meal or not.
In other words, please tip your wait-staff on the full meal price. Show your appreciation for their service. It’s the right thing to do!
