The Government’s Eat Out To Help Out scheme runs from August 3 – 31, 2020, and means that you’ll get 50% off your food and non-alcoholic drinks up to a total value of £10 per person when you eat or drink out in participating bars and restaurants every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday within the time period.
You can take part as many times as you like and you don’t need a voucher. You can take advantage of the scheme in conjunction with other offers and discounts and there’s no minimum spend. Remember that alcoholic drinks and service charges are excluded from the offer.
