More than 100 outlets across Torbay have so far signed up to the UK Government’s Eat Out to Help Out Scheme – and a new official Government online finder is available to help diners locate them.
As Eat Out to Help Out stickers and posters start to appear in the windows of restaurants, cafes, bars and other establishments across the Torbay, customers who want to take advantage of the scheme are advised to look out for the logo.
The logo means diners that eat-in will benefit from a 50% discount, up to a maximum of £10 per person, on food and non-alcoholic drinks, any Monday to Wednesday in August – and no voucher is required. Diners can take advantage of the offer as many times as they like during the month.
Cllr Swithin Long, Cabinet Member for Economic Regeneration, Tourism and Housing for Torbay Council, said: “This is a great initiative by the government to support the many restaurants, cafes and bars that play a vital role in our local economy, who have been hit hard by coronavirus. It’s vital that we all support our local businesses and do all that we can to help them recover. I hope that many local residents embrace this scheme and use it as an opportunity to discover new favourite places to dine out across the Bay”.
