When does the Eat Out to Help Out scheme end?
The Eat Out to Help Out scheme was launched by Chancellor Rishi Sunak to help the UK’s floundering hospitality industry after the nationwide lockdown left many businesses at risk of closure.
The scheme offers customers 50 per cent off the cost of a meal – up to a maximum of £10 per person – when eating out at a participating restaurant, café, pub or bar.
The discount isn’t valid against booze, but there is no minimum spend and you don’t need a voucher to use the scheme, meaning it really is as simple as showing up to a participating restaurant, ordering your favourite meal and getting a half price bill at the end.
The Eat Out to Help Out scheme is in full swing now having launched at the beginning of the month, but when does it end?

The Eat Out to Help Out scheme started on 3 August and will run through until the end of the month, ending on August 31.
You can take advantage of the scheme and get money off your food bill at participating restaurants as many times as you like before the 31 August.
As the scheme is only valid on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays, that means you have 10 different valid days before the end of the month to get 50% off at participating restaurants.
Plenty of time to bag a bargain meal at one of your favourite local spots.
