Dishoom Uncapped 50% Off
Although many restaurants are taking part in the ‘Eat Out to Help Out’ scheme, Dishoom is going one better and extending the offer beyond the £10 cap. Instead, you’ll be able to enjoy a very generous 50% off all food and soft drinks Monday – Wednesday throughout August. How’s that for a welcome back?

Hawksmoor Steak & Chips for £10
Hawksmoor has come up with a very tempting new menu to get us back through the door. What they’re calling ‘The Best Steak & Chips in Britain’ for just £10. And who are we to argue? They’ll be serving up 300g of 35-day dry-aged rump steak with a generous portion of chips and a sauce of your choice (which at this point would cost you £30 already) but they’ve reduced it to £20. So with Rishi’s offer, you’ll pay just £10. Furthermore, Hawksmoor is continuing with £5 corkage every Monday, so that means you can enjoy a bottle of wine from home & enjoy the Best Steak & Chips in Britain for £15?!
