No washing up

How I love eating out with my family. No cooking, no washing up, no crawling around on my hands and knees picking up/mopping up food and drink that the baby’s thrown on the floor. There’s is no need to think up new recipes because we’ve had chicken curry three times this week already! It’s even better when kids eat for free!

Jamie's Italian

Several restaurant chains around the country are offering ‘kids eat free’ or ‘kids eat for £1. After dragging the kids round the shopping mall to shop for school uniform on Sunday I decided to take them to Jamie’s Italian. I’ve only been there once before but heard that they were offering deals on kids meals during the school holidays. From 7 July – 31 August, kids get a free kids meal (drink, main meal and dessert) with every adult meal - https://www.jamieoliver.com/italian/kids-eat-free/ - The kids meal options are really nice. Mini Me 1 had chicken lollipops, fries and salad and Mini Me 2 had a burger, fries and salad. They were super thrilled about the desert which was chocolate brownie and vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate sauce and toffee popcorn. The baby shared my prawn linguine and garlic bread. All the food was really tasty.

Pasta Remoli

Today was another shopping mission for school shoes and we ended up going to Pasta Remoli (yes I do have a thing about Italian food!) where kids eat free with every adult main meal between 4 to 6pm Monday to Thursday - http://www.pastaremoli.co.uk/ - Mini me 1 and Mini Me 2 liked choosing from a range of different pastas that are displayed on the counter and then choosing a sauce. Kids meals include the pasta, sauce and a drink. The food was delicious.

Other restaurants where kids eat free or for £1

Here’s a few other restaurants that I would recommend who are offering special deals for kids meals during the holidays. I may have snuck another Italian restaurant in there (it’s my next favourite cuisine after Indian!):

Giraffe - http://www.giraffe.net/kids-eat-free?promo-location=offers-landing – kids eat free with every full price adult meal purchased. The kids meals a lovely here, deserts include churros with chocolate sauce!

Ping Pong – This dim sum restaurant has flipped the kids eat free offer on its head and is offering parents a free basket of dim sum who order a meal for their kids - https://www.pingpongdimsum.com/offers/85/Parents-Eat-Free - Kids meals are £6.50 and the offer is available until before 31st August before 7pm.

Prezzo – Kids eat for £1 with a voucher available on the website - https://www.prezzorestaurants.co.uk/offers/ - the food is yummy here and the offer is available all day every day until Thursday 31st August.

Carluccios - https://carluccios.com/kids - Another offer where kids eat for £1 with a voucher available from the website. This is valid for every adult main meal between the hours of 12 to 5pm until Thursay 31st August. The kids must be 10 years old or under. I’ve never taken the kids to this restaurant before but have eaten here in my pre-mummy days and the food was great.

Toby Carvery – Kids can eat for £1 until 9th September. https://www.tobycarvery.co.uk/offers/kids-eat-for-1pound - the voucher available allows up to 2 kids to eat for £1 for every full paying adult. The offer is available Monday to Saturday, excluding bank holidays. So you can have your Sunday roast any other day of the week!

There are a few other restaurants offering these kid of deals in the school holidays too but these are the ones that I have eaten at and would recommend.

There is still over a week left to take advantage of these offers and let someone else clean up the food your kids have thrown on the floor! Bon appetit!
