There's a place in Houston that will give a discount if you are open carryingThere was a place (or were there two) in Abilene that also gave 10% off orders (BBQ I think) with an CHL. It has been 3-4 years since I saw it though.

It's one of those places that mobile (has wheels) and was set up in a old parking lot near downtown
More like a large trailer ... it had a cover and a few tables under the coverSay: "food truck".
Back then, the PPK /was/ a feasible concealed carry option.Back in 1979-80 I worked the night shift alone at a stop and rob just south of Denton right off of an I-35E exit and entry ramp.
This was when Dallas was having a string of robberies each ending with the employee(s) taken to the back cooler and shot in the head.
My boss/owner had a no gun policy for employees. Needless to say I ignored that. I kept a sawed off SG under the counter and a 38 derringer in my pocket. Keep in mind there were no Micro pistols back then except for 25’s or 22’s. So don’t go judgIng me for the derringer.
I was very fortunate that a man named Robert would come hang out for an hour right up to closing time. That really put my mind somewhat at ease.
Though he was not armed, he always stood near the door so he could be easily seen from the outside.
That my friends is a good man.
Not only that, it's Minnesota. Long way to get gas, and I swore off ever going back to Minnesota in 2012.I wonder if they are still giving a discount 5 years later.

Lucy’s was/is still trying to make up for the massacre in Killeen in 1991.Great idea!
About 10 or 15 years ago, Luby's got in some hot water over giving discounts to police officers. Someone tried to have that considered bribery and it was all over the news. Luby's didn't back down. I'm sure rival restaurants didn't like losing business, but the big thing was that NOBODY robbed a Luby's. Even the dumbest of criminals knew how popular the place was for LEOs. Well, almost.... In 2012, someone tried to rob 3 plainclothes officers outside of a Luby's. The robber quickly assumed room temperature, so to speak.
