8 Chain Restaurant Deals For Valentine’s Day 2026

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner — and IMO, it could not get here any sooner! This year, Feb. 14 falls on a Saturday, giving romantics around the world ample opportunity to make the most out of the day of love. It’s the weekend! There’s no reason to go to sleep early, and you don’t have to worry about waking up for work the next day! Woohoo!

Valentine’s Day is typically a reflection of the couple (or friend group, or individual) who’s celebrating. For some, it means pulling out all of the stops, the whole nine yards: reservations, flowers, jewelery, and more! Some prefer activities, events, and filling the day with things to do. But for me, it’s a good excuse to celebrate with a favorite fast-food meal. Hot take, but five-star meals on V-Day are overrated; give me a burger or a heart-shaped pizza and I’ll be on cloud 9. And I know I’m not alone in thinking this way.

But if there’s one thing I like more than a good meal, it’s a good deal! And when I can get both? Most romantic situation ever. Look, there’s no shame in saving some money while celebrating this V-Day, and this year, numerous brands are helping you do just that. So, here are some fast-food and chain restaurant deals for Valentine’s Day 2026.
