Some fast-food chains offer a free birthday meal or snack – Burger King members can claim a free Whopper or Plant-Based Whopper, while Chopstix offers a free small noodle box.
However, most restaurant birthday offers are buy-one-get-one-free deals rather than completely free meals.
At Harvester and Zizzi’s it’s a free main when buying another full-price main. At Frankie & Benny’s you get a free main when purchasing two or more main meals.
Byron offers a free burger with a £5 minimum spend, while Wagamama offers free gyoza when you spend £12 and have earned at least one stamp on your loyalty card in the last six months.
Some chains give money off instead. Turtle Bay offers members a £20 birthday credit with no minimum spend, while Bella Italia gives you £15 off your total bill when you spend a minimum of £30. Las Iguanas offers a free main when two other meals are purchased or a 20% off voucher.
Pizza Express birthday rewards depend on your loyalty level. Bronze members may get a free dessert with a £10 spend, while higher tiers can get a free pizza or drinks with a £15 minimum spend.
At Prezzo, members receive drinks or desserts when they spend at least £25, while Bill’s offers a bottle of prosecco or pancakes when qualifying meals are ordered and the booking is made in advance.
