Veterans and troops can choose items from an always evolving menu, which has been applauded by national and regional media and most importantly, Hickory Tavern’s valued guests.

Here are the details: Veterans and active-duty members will receive a free meal of equal or lesser value with purchase of another meal. Dine-in only, limit of one free meal per U.S military service member. Proof of military service is required. No cash value. Beverage, tax and gratuity not included. Offer valid on Monday, November, 11, 2024 from open – close, as restaurant hours may vary by location.
