When Veterans Get Their Free Coffee at Starbucks

Starbucks is giving out free tall (12 fl oz) hot brewed coffees or iced coffees on Veterans Day, which this year falls on Saturday, November 11, 2023.

This deal might not be valid at all stores, so you might call your local Starbucks ahead of time to verify.

I also have some common questions and answers about Veterans Day free meals you'll want to check out.

Who's Eligible for the Starbucks Veterans Day Free Coffee

All veterans, active-duty military members, and their spouses can get a free coffee on Veterans Day.

This means that anyone else who comes in to Starbucks on Veterans Day will need to pay regular price for their coffee. More restrictions like this that you should be aware of are explained below.

What You Need to Take With You to Starbucks

You should take some sort of military proof with you to Starbucks on Veterans Day to show that you are in fact a veteran or active military personnel.

Given that military spouses are also eligible for free coffee, there most certainly will be some sort of ID requirement so as to prevent non-military members from taking advantage of this offer.

Starbucks Veterans Day Free Coffee Restrictions

Starbucks' Veterans Day free coffee is valid on Veterans Day only. This means you must visit a store on Saturday, November 11, to get your free coffee—no other day.

It's also important to remember to bring proof of service in case it's required. Anyone without it may be turned away from the free coffee.

This free coffee from Starbucks is limited to one per person, any customizations you want will have to be paid for, and it's redeemable only in person.
