Many businesses thank veterans and active military members by offering them FREE or discounted food on Veterans Day, Monday, November 11 (unless noted otherwise). Here are some local deals available for veterans and active duty only (not the whole family). In addition, proof of military status requirements vary at each location. Fayetteville and the surrounding communities appreciate our Veterans, and this is a generous way to show their gratitude. Take a photo and send it to us or post it on our CityView Facebook page if you took advantage of an offer. (photo by Anna Lester)
