As a token of gratitude, many restaurants and food outlets offer special deals and discounts for veterans and active-duty military personnel. Here’s a comprehensive list of some of the best food deals and discounts available on Veterans Day 2024.

Regional and Local Offers
While many of the big chains provide nationwide deals, don’t forget to check with family-owned restaurants and local diners, as many also offer special discounts for veterans and military personnel. It’s always a good idea to call ahead to confirm participation and any restrictions that may apply.

How to Take Advantage of Deals
To make the most of these offers, veterans should carry valid identification or other proof of service. Identification can include a military ID, Veterans ID Card (VIC), or a driver’s license with a veteran designation. It’s also important to note that most deals apply for dine-in only, and some may have specific time constraints.
While we cover some of the main highlights, always verify with locations online or by calling in advance, as not all franchised restaurants participate in national promotions.
