You can enjoy a meal at some of your favourite local restaurants – and save money at the same time!
With lockdown restrictions easing, many restaurants and cafes are welcoming diners back and the UK government has launched a new initiative to encourage you to dine out again.
The government launched its Eat Out To Help Out scheme at the start of August in a bid to get people back into their favourite restaurants.
Every Monday to Wednesday in August, participating eateries will be giving 50% off (up to the value of £10 per person) off each diners’ food and non-alcoholic drink bills.
Here are a few of the restaurants in Courier Country taking part.
