MESA, AZ, UNITED STATES, November 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Backyard Taco will honor veterans and active-duty military members with complimentary meals valued up to $15 at all seven Arizona locations on Wednesday, November 11, 2026. The one-day Veterans Day offer is a gesture of appreciation for those who have served or continue to serve in the United States Armed Forces.

Eligible guests can choose any menu items and receive up to $15 off one order. There is no designated meal or limited promotional menu. Guests whose orders exceed $15 simply pay the difference.

“We have tremendous respect and gratitude for the men and women who have served our country,” said Steve Beck of Backyard Taco. “Veterans Day gives us an opportunity to say thank you in a simple but meaningful way by welcoming veterans and active-duty service members into Backyard Taco and treating them to a meal on us.”

VETERANS DAY OFFER DETAILS
The promotion is available to veterans and active-duty military members for dine-in, drive-thru where available, and takeout on November 11, 2026.
Guests should present a veteran or military ID when ordering. Any veteran ID is accepted, and no coupon or promotional code is required.
The offer is limited to one order per eligible person, with a maximum discount of $15. Guests are responsible for any amount exceeding the $15 allowance.
The Veterans Day offer cannot be combined with other promotions, with one exception: guests at Backyard Taco’s Laveen location may also redeem the store’s free ice cream cone offer with their Veterans Day order. This additional offer is available at the Laveen location.

Complete promotion information is available on Backyard Taco’s Veterans Eat Free page.

ALL SEVEN ARIZONA LOCATIONS PARTICIPATING
All seven Backyard Taco restaurants will participate, including Mesa North, Mesa South, Mesa East, Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek and Laveen Village.
The offer gives eligible guests the flexibility to enjoy a meal at the restaurant or take their food with them. Whether stopping in for tacos or picking up another menu favorite, veterans and active-duty service members can select the items they prefer.

Backyard Taco encourages families, friends and local organizations to share the announcement with veterans and service members in their communities so they have an opportunity to participate.

Addresses and restaurant hours are available through the Backyard Taco locations directory.

A TRADITION OF FOOD, FAMILIA AND COMMUNITY
Backyard Taco’s story began with Ruben and Marisela preparing authentic Mexican food for family and friends in a backyard. As word spread about their mesquite-grilled Tacos al Carbon, the gatherings grew, eventually inspiring the restaurant brand that now serves communities throughout the Valley.
That tradition of bringing people together over food remains central to Backyard Taco. The restaurant emphasizes fresh ingredients, made-to-order preparation and the distinctive flavor of mesquite grilling.

Its menu includes carne asada, pollo asado, birria and al pastor, with choices ranging from tacos and burritos to quesadillas, bowls and other Mexican favorites. Fresh salsas, toppings and accompaniments allow guests to personalize their meals.

For Veterans Day, that welcoming tradition becomes an opportunity to recognize the people who have served the country and express appreciation through a shared meal.

“We hope veterans and active-duty military members throughout our communities will join us on November 11,” Beck said. “More than anything, we want them to know how much their service is appreciated.”
