  • Some deals are dine-in only, or have time restrictions (breakfast hours, certain windows).
  • Some offers are limited to one per qualifying person, and some exclude alcohol or may have a minimum purchase.
  • Many retail discounts require verification via services like SheerID or ID.me.
  • Always check the chain’s website or call your local location ahead of time.
