It’s your birthday and it’s time to celebrate!
Yeah presents, cake, and other great things is amazing, but there’s nothing, and I mean NOTHING, sweeter than free food on your birthday.
First of all it’s free food. Second of all it’s FREE food.
Eating the free food on your birthday is the easy part. The hardest part is just choosing a place to go.
So to make your life, and birthday, a little bit easier, I compiled a list of all the major restaurants across the United States (and even some in Canada for my awesome Canadian readers) that offer free meals, discounts, and free food items on your birthday.
So without further adieu, I give you the greatest list that you will ever feast your eyes on. Enjoy and let me know what you think!
All Restaurants That Offer Free Food On Your Birthday!
Here’s all the restaurants across the United States that offer killer birthday freebies as well as free birthday food.
Just remember that some of these restaurants require you to sign up for the eClub in order to take advantage of their birthday freebies.
Plus, a majority of these restaurants extend the birthday freebie for your entire birthday month, not just your birthday which is pretty sweet. So just be sure to check out each restaurants details once you join their eClub.

We have 5 girls and we like to go out on b’days but it can get costly, especially this month. Birthdays this month are Nov 17, 22 and 24, along with Thanksgiving, another b’day Dec 14 and of course, Christmas. It’s so nice to be able to get free food with a busy and expensive 2 months. Thank you for the extensive list. It has been helpful.

March 20th birthday, palm Sunday and the vernal equinox when spring begins…got a free medium sub at Firehouse subs in Venice Florida without prior sign up required. Tried IHOP for pancakes, same day sign up didn’t work, required coupon. Out of work and homeless but still fighting for dignity in this world. Parents gone and alone on my b-day so trying to make it happy. Peace to all and since you are here whatever day it is …HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! !!

The places where they offer free food without signing up or be a part of their program — can we just mention “hey today’s my birthday” get the food and leave? Even if they do offer free food without strings attached, it’s rude to not order something first, right?
Grasshopper
