Red Robin is proud to offer America's veterans and active duty service members a guest favorite, Red's Tavern Double and Bottomless Steak Fries®**, for free on Veterans Day. The burger includes two classic-sized, fire-grilled beef patties topped with melted American cheese, fresh lettuce, tomato and Red's Secret Tavern Sauce on a toasted sesame bun, served with Bottomless Steak Fries, which means free refills!

Nothing goes better with Bottomless Steak Fries than Heinz Ketchup®, and Red Robin will also celebrate Veterans Day by participating in a national Heinz Ketchup campaign that raises money and awareness for Wounded Warrior Project, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization with the mission to honor and empower Wounded Warriors. 

The campaign encourages guests to use their smartphone to scan a QR (quick response) code on the back of any Heinz Ketchup bottle at Red Robin restaurants. The scanned code leads to a website where guests can write their own "thank you" message to an active duty or retired military service member.  Participants also have the option to email a "thank you" to a personal friend or family member who has served in the military by entering an email address. Heinz will donate $1 to Wounded Warrior Project for each "thank you" and an additional 57 cents for each message shared on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram through the campaign, up to $250,000.
