Quick heads-up!

Every restaurant does their own thing, so deals can change, have age limits, or come with other little rules. Give them a quick check before you go, so your kids don’t miss out on their free meal!

Keep an eye out for school holiday specials; spots like The Edinburgh Hotel, Feathers, and Brighton Metro often bring back kids eat free deals when school’s out.
