London Restaurant Festival: set menus and deals

OpenTable is running the London Restaurant Festival throughout June, with set menus and deals at restaurants across the city.

Menus include The Cinnamon Club offering a special menu for just £29 per person and Salt Yard Borough offering live cooking for £35 per person.

The Ivy: £20 off £100 spend

From Sunday 1 June to 30 June 2025, you can get £20 off a £100 spend at The Ivy or The Ivy Asia restaurants when you book via this link.

There are very sparse T&Cs for the offer, but you’ll get £20 off if you spend at least £100 (excluding the service charge).

Frankie & Benny’s: £30 giftcard for £15

You can get a £30 restaurant voucher for half the price to use at Frankie & Benny’s by 21 April 2026.

You can spend it on food and drinks and it can be redeemed Monday – Sunday. The voucher’s only one-use and you can only use it when you dine in.

Some restaurants are excluded, such as Frankie & Benny’s in airports and Paddington. Other terms and conditions apply.

Bill’s: £5 unlimited pancakes

You can get bottomless buttermilk pancakes for £5 all day on Friday 6, 13, 20 and 27 June at Bill’s, when you buy any drink. There are two toppings to choose from, too, either Berries & Whipped Vanilla Cream or Biscoff Crumb, Maple & Banana. You have 90 minutes to enjoy the pancakes.

Pizza Express: buy one pizza, get another for £1 (and get 20% off)

Until 26 June, you can buy one classic or leggera pizza at Pizza Express and get another for £1. Or, switch to Romana and it’s £3 for the second pizza. It’s only valid when you dine in from Monday to Thursday. You don’t need to get the same pizza, either.

You’ll need to download the app and enter your table number, then you can apply the offer to your bill. There are often other offers available in there, too.

Plus, this can be used alongside a gift card, and Pizza Express is offering 20% off gift cards when bought between 9 June and 15 June with the code FDAY20 — the code is for Father’s Day, but you don’t have to give it to your Dad.

Senior Writer, Zoe, recently visited Pizza Express using a gift card won in O2’s Blue Mondays and managed to nab two pizzas, two cocktails and a plate of dough balls with a final bill of just £1.40.

Wagamama: free edamame or prawn crackers

You can grab some free edamame or prawn crackers at Wagamamas when you join its Soul Club, which is the loyalty app.

All you have to do is download the app and sign up for the loyalty club and you’ll get to choose which perk you want in your wallet. You’ll then be able to redeem the freebie when you spend £12. The Soul Club lets you earn stamps to get rewards when you eat at Wagamama.

IKEA: half price food on Fridays

If you’re an IKEA Family member then you get half price food on Fridays with “Swe-dish Friday”. 

That can get you their classic meatballs for £2.45, fish and chips for £3.45 and kid’s pasta for 45p. 

There’s no published end date for this offer. It excludes IKEA Hammersmith and order and collection points.

IKEA Family is a free loyalty scheme offered by IKEA that can get you discounts and free hot drinks on weekdays.

Burger King: 100 points

The new Burger King loyalty app earns you points when you spend that can be redeemed for items on the menu. When you sign up you get 100 free points. You’ll need 150 to get nuggets, a large fries or onion rings.

You can also get Whopper with your first order over £3 using Click and Collect. Download on Google Play here or App Store here.

Sign up to the Leon Lovers Club and you’ll get a voucher for a 30% off your next order. You used to also get a treat on your birthday.

Meerkat Meals: 2-4-1 for £1

You can sign up to Meerkat Meals and get 2-4-1 meals Sunday to Thursday. You need to buy a qualifying insurance product from Compare the Market for access, but this trick gets you a year’s membership for £1. You’ll also get 2-4-1 cinema tickets on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Tastecard: 2-4-1 or 50% off

You can save 50% with Tastecard at hundreds of restaurants. We’ve got a post which we regularly update with the latest Tastecard offers, often including one month free or a four-month trial for £1.

Well worth giving it a go and seeing if you think you’ll use it regularly. There’s also Gourmet Society which does a similar thing.

National Burger Day discounts (ended)

Thursday 22 August 2024 is “national burger day” and it’s worth checking to see if your fave restaurant is taking part with special burgers or discounts.

Some might be doing deals through the week and into the Bank Holiday weekend too

A few I’ve spotted so far:

• 20% off at Bleecker Street
• Buy one get one free at Shake Shack
• £2 Whoppers at Burger King via app
• 20% off at Meatliquor (via mailing list)

All Bar One: 40% off mains (ended)

Until 22 May 2025 you can activate a code in the All Bar One app to get 50% off mains and small plates. Valid Monday to Thursday only.

There’s a code to redeem the offer which you can use at the bar or in the app.

You can only redeem it once and O2 and airport bars are excluded.

MeatLiquor: 50% off food & drink (ended)

At certain points in the year, top burger joint MeatLiquor emails members of its list 50% off vouchers. These tend to happen on bank holidays and your birthday – so sign up now!

Village Hotel: £10 for two breakfasts (ended)

You don’t need to be staying at a Village Hotel to get this offer. You’ll prepay £10 for a voucher that’ll get you two buffet breakfasts at any of their hotels.

It’s a hot or continental buffet and the voucher is valid for 12 months.

Fatto a Mano: swap a pineapple for a pizza (ended)

Turn your eyes away if you’re not a fan of pineapple on pizza, as until 30 March, you can take a pineapple into a Fatto a Mano restaurant, and they’ll give you a free Bella Disgrazia pizza — that’s its take on this controversial pizza topping and will only be served for six weeks.

You have to eat-in, and it’s one pizza per pineapple, so if you take a few friends, make sure you’re all wielding pineapples. They’ll use the pineapples to make the pizzas, and any extras will be donated.

There are only four Fatto a Mano restaurants, three in London and one in Brighton.

Prezzo: buy one main, get another for £1 (ended)

From Sunday to Friday, you can get a £1 main with every full priced one until 30 January.

The offer includes pizza, pasta, grills or salad and you can use it with up to 12 people – so you can get a maximum of six full priced mains and six £1 ones.

You must sign up with your email address to get the discount code and some restaurants won’t be offering the deal including: Prezzo Euston, Glasshouse Street, Kensington, Kings Cross, St Martin’s Lane and Northumberland Avenue.

Prezzo’s also offering some other new year discounts, such as 25% off food between 6 January – 3 April.
