Where to find the ‘kids eat free’ deals for summer 2025

It can cost over £1,000 to cover childcare, food and entertainment during the six-week school summer holiday, according to research by MoneyHelper. That’s a huge strain on already stretched household budgets, especially with food prices and bills still high.

But there’s good news: loads of restaurants, cafés and pubs continue to offer kids eat free (or for £1) deals this summer.
