Applebee's Giving Veterans Free Meal On Nov. 11, Veteran's Day

For the 11th straight year, Applebee's restaurants will give free meals to American military members and veterans on Veteran's Day, November 11. Many Ohio's Applebee's restaurants will again participate in the program.

“At Applebee’s we are proud to welcome veterans and active-duty military all year long. To date, we have served nearly nine million military heroes a free meal, and in celebration of our 11th year, we welcome one million more to join us on Veterans Day for a delicious and free meal among friends,” said John Cywinski, president at Applebee’s. “The entire Applebee’s community looks forward to this day year-round, and we hope it encourages our communities to come together to celebrate our neighborhood friends and heroes around the country.”

Applebee's is also participating in the Buy a Vet a Bud program. Through November 11, guests can buy a Budweiser, Bud Light, or O'Douls beer at their local Applebee's and have it given to a veteran on Veteran's Day, free-of-charge. Guests that take part in the program can create their own beer label, with a personal message.
