We're just a few days away from the launch of the Government's new scheme, Eat Out to Help Out which will see pubs, restaurants and coffee houses offering 50% discount (maximum £10 per diner) on food or non-alcoholic drinks to eat or drink in.
The scheme is the first of its kind and will run every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday between 3-31st of August giving the hospitality sector a boost after having to close due to Covid-19. You'll only be able to receive the discount in businesses that have registered for the scheme, they will then claim back the money from the Government directly meaning you don't have to do anything other than enjoy a delicious meal out.
Want to know more? Just scroll down where you'll find everything you need to know plus a list of participating restaurants, bars and more in Southampton.
What do I need to do?
Just turn up - when visiting any participating restaurant the 50% discount will automatically be added to your bill although alcoholic drinks and service charge is excluded so you don't have to worry about a voucher or similar. The discount is up to a maximum of £10 per diner.
Is there a minimum spend?
Nope - which I think is the best bit as it makes it so much more accessible to everyone, you can head to a participating coffee house and order a coffee and a slice of cake and still get 50% off!
Is there a limit to how many times I can use it?
You can use the scheme as much as you like over the days it's running (Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday).
