    The deal means people can get up to £10 off per head if they eat out from Monday to Wednesday.
    So you get a free bread roll if you go to a decent restaurant in London.

    Presumably it'd for eat-in only?

    Tiny local places could come to some arrangement where they double all their prices - so you the punter pay the same as normal but they get a big wodge of cash from the government
