Original Breakfast House Announces Veterans Day Celebration Benefiting Tunnel to Towers Tempe

Original Breakfast House Owner John Stidham, a veteran himself, has long been an avid supporter of active-duty military personnel and veterans through what he calls his “biggest party of the year” — held annually on Veterans Day, November 11 in support of these real-life heroes. This year, Stidham is also honoring nurses and all first responders during the event due to a recent personal experience.

Stidham recently recovered from COVID after spending 19 days in the hospital under the care of dedicated and watchful nurses whom he credits with saving his life. During his time in the hospital, he knew he wanted to expand the event to include these special everyday heroes too.

Any active-duty military personnel, veteran, nurse or first responder can receive a free meal all day long on Thursday, November 11. These guests can choose between a meal off the regular menu for dine in service or enjoy the pancake breakfast, served outside in the entertainment area, including pancakes, eggs, bacon, ham, sausage and coffee. The pancake breakfast is available for non-military, veterans and first responders for $10 (adults) and $5 for kids.

Outside the restaurant is where the party is after all — this year’s event includes a vintage car show on the grass and live music from Joshua Stone Band in the parking lot, as well as a patriot presentation by the Refuge Teen Center.

In addition, proceeds from the will benefit Tunnel to Towers Tempe, a nonprofit organization founded in honor of Firefighter Stephen Siller who lost his life in the line of duty on September 11, 2001 as well as all first responders and military heroes that have made the ultimate sacrifice. Original Breakfast House will match all donations to this organization up to $5,000.
