Every Single Place You Can Get Free Food on April 15 (Because, Taxes)

Tax Day: If we had to rate it, it’d fall somewhere between Boxing Day and Root Canal Day. But lucky for us, a few restaurants are aiming to make our day much better. Because there’s no cure-all quite like falling face-first into a free platter of chips and gooey queso. Right this way for all of the freebies and deals that are almost as good as a refund.

Boston Market
Swoop in for a half chicken with two sides, cornbread and a drink for just $10.40—a special deal that’ll save you a couple of bucks. (1040…you know, like the EZ form.) bostonmarket.com

California Tortilla
How do free chips and queso sound? Just say “chipping in” when you order any regular-priced item for a free small side, then thank us later. californiatortilla.com

Chili’s
It’s margs o’clock: The Cherry Blossom Margarita is just $5 at lunch and dinner. That’s three whole dollars off, people. chilis.com

Chuck E. Cheese’s
Calling all parents! Bring your screaming toddler in, order a large pizza and get a second large pizza for free. Now that’s what we call a break. chuckecheese.com

Great American Cookies
Two words: free cookies. Two more words: all day. greatamericancookies.com

Kona Ice
Tax Day? How about “National Chill Out Day”? The shaved-ice trucks will be giving away free treats all day long (scope out the nearest location here). kona-ice.com

Noodles & Company
Maybe you’re one of those technologically savvy people who files online. Maybe you just really like Buffalo Chicken Mac. Either way, thanks to the restaurant’s “File Online, Order Online” deal, enter the code “TAXDAY” to get $4 off your order of $10 or more. noodles.com
