Finding Restaurants That Offer Military Discounts
There are many restaurants that offer our Military members discounts. Often times its as easy as simply asking the waitress who’s serving you when its time to pay the bill. If you want to find a restaurant with military discounts ahead of time, looking things up online is the easiest. Usually restaurants will post their military discount prices on their websites so if you have a restaurant in mind, check out their website first. You can also call the restaurants ahead of time to check for military discounts.
Keep in mind that the closer you are to a military base, the easier it may be to find restaurants as well as other venues that offer military discounts. Another thing to keep in mind is holidays like Veteran’s Day, Memorial Day and Independence day. Many restaurants will offer military discounts or even free meals for veterans or active duty members on these holidays.
There are quite a few restaurants that may not advertise their military discount especially restaurants away from military bases. It never hurts to ask. Some restaurants may make a special discount just for you if they know you are affiliated with the military. The reason for this being that they don’t often have military members as guests in their restaurant. For those of you on active duty, you’d be surprised how many people will honor your service for our country by giving you a discount of some kind especially if you’re in your uniform. People love our military and respect the sacrifices they make to serve our country. Don’t take advantage of this love but don’t be afraid to take an offered discount. Our serving men and women don’t get rich protecting our country, so a little discount now and then often is a big help to the service members and their dependents.
FYI don’t forget your military ID!
