Veterans Eat Free Today at Applebee's

The New Jersey Applebee’s will again thank our nation’s veterans and troops by inviting them to their local Applebee’s for a free meal on Veterans Day, Sunday, November 11th.


For the fourth year, Applebee’s will salute our nation’s military, hoping to top the 1,024,000 free meals served last year from coast-to-coast.  A year ago, Applebee’s served more than 10,000 meals to deserving men and women veterans and members of the active duty military at Applebee’s in Bergen, Morris, Essex, Union and other surrounding counties, on Veterans Day, a day of remembrance and respect.


“We say ‘Thank You’ with a free meal, but this day at Applebee’s is really more about creating connections,” said Kevin Coughlin, Director of Operations for Applebee’s New Jersey.  “At every Applebee’s on Veterans Day, military gather to share stories, meet up with old friends and make new ones. It’s our favorite day of the year and we are honored to serve and thank them again this year.”
