Krispy Kreme is Celebrating National Coffee Day 2016 with Free Food

In honor of National Coffee Day 2016, Krispy Kreme is launching a special giveaway. Not only will customers receive their morning cup of joe on the house, but they will also receive a free donut for a deliciously sweet start to the morning.

National Coffee Day 2016 takes places on Thursday, September 29th at all participating Krispy Kreme locations across Canada and the US. At any time during the day, customers can come in to pick up a small coffee and an Original Glazed donut for free. The promotion is part of Krispy Kreme's ongoing tradition of marking unusual holidays such as National Superhero Day and National Talk Like a Pirate Day.

While Krispy Kreme is not the only chain giving away free java for National Coffee Day 2016, it is the only one sweetening the deal with donuts.
