Applebee’s and Golden Corral will once again honor Veterans and Active Duty Military with free meals. Applebee’s will honor on November 11, 2010 and Golden Corral on November 15, 2010.
Applebee’s
Applebee’s will thank our nation’s Veterans and Active Duty Military by inviting them to their neighborhood Applebee’s for a free meal on Veterans Day. Applebee’s Veterans Day menu will offer some of its signature and favorite items, including the 7 oz. House Sirloin, Bacon Cheeseburger, Three Cheese Chicken Penne, Chicken Tenders Platter, Oriental Chicken Salad, Fiesta Lime Chicken® and Double Crunch Shrimp.
Applebee’s expects to serve more than one million meals to Veterans and Active Duty Military. All of the nearly 1900 Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar locations in the U.S. will honor this. Date and times are: Thursday, Nov. 11, 2010, 11 a.m. – midnight; guests should inquire with their local restaurant about extended hours.
Golden Corral
November 15, 2010 will mark the 10th anniversary of Golden Corral’s Military Appreciation Monday dinner.
The free meal is a special “thank you tribute” to any person who has ever served in the United States Military. If you are a veteran, retired, currently serving, in the National Guard or Reserves, you are invited to join us for Golden Corral’s Military Appreciation Monday dinner.
Last year’s Military Appreciation Monday was a huge success, honoring over 335,000 veterans and active duty military with a free dinner buffet and beverage. All Golden Corral restaurants nationwide participated in this event and, together with guests, collected a record total of over $808,000 for the Disabled American Veterans organization, which will be used by state and local chapters to assist veterans.
To date, Golden Corral restaurants have provided over 2.5 million free meals and contributed over $4.1 million to the Disabled American Veterans organization.
