Free Birthday meals while in Orlando

[Ptarmigan6]

Hi all,

I've started to brainstorm a list of Orlando restaurants that provide free birthday meals/snacks if you join their loyalty programs. Since we're visiting during my birthday, I thought that might be one nice way of cutting down on costs.

So far, I can think of:

Red Robin (free burger)
Noodles and Co (free entree)
Benihana ($30 gift certificate)
Starbucks (free beverage, any size)


Any others you know of?

This is a GREAT idea for a thread. Never even thought about this other than Landry's. We always visit around my or my sons birthday. Thank you for posting this. I did a Google search and came up with this: http://urbantastebud.com/restaurants-that-offer-free-birthday-food/ but don't know how accurate it is. I am thrilled to see Denny's on there. We always eat at the one on I-92 when in Orlando!

I also see Earl of Sandwich. Isn't there one of those on Disney property? And Kona Grill? Is that the same as the Kona at Disney? Margaritaville is listed too as is Shula's for a free entree!!. Ponderosa gives a free steak dinner too! Steak N Shake - Free burger and fries.

I would definitely call ahead of make sure to read the fine print when signing up because not all locations may participate in the birthday programs.

Earl of Sandwich is a brownie, not a free sandwich anymore. I know that Steak and Shake, Red Robin, Benihanna and Starbucks you have to be a member of either their rewards program or e-mail program. And Landrys you have to be a member of their program. You pay $25 to join and then you get the $25 back as a credit and another $25 for your birthday.

It could really be misleading to people to assume it would be just show ID like Dennys is.

IHOP internet club is nice, free birthday meal and sign up anniversary meal coupons but at only one chosen location. Denny's has free meal on birthday, just show up. Jersey Mike's subs internet sign up gets you free birthday med sub coupon. Hooter's internet sign up gets you free chicken wings coupon. Firehouse subs gave you free sub on birthday, just show up.
