Some top restaurants and supermarkets are offering free food for children this half term

The rising cost of living has meant families are needing to stretch their money further than ever in 2022, and plenty of companies are looking to help out and ensure everyone can still enjoy a meal out while kids aren’t in schools.

The half term break this year runs between Monday, October 14 and Friday, October 28.

Asda

Introduced over the summer, Asda are continuing their deal which allows kids to eat for £1 with no additional adult spend. The deal includes both hot and cold meals at Asda Cafes across the UK and is available until the end of the Christmas holidays.

The deal is available to anyone aged 16 or under and can be used seven days a week.

Beefeater

Families looking to start the day well this half term can head to Beefeater where two under 16s can eat for free with every adult meal purchased. Breakfast is available between 6:30am and 10:30pm Monday to Friday and 7am until 11am on weekends.

The popular pub and restaurant chain is offering the chance for kids to eat for £1 between Monday and Saturday throughout the week.
