CHILDREN can eat for free at Marco Pierre White's restaurant in Eastover, Bridgwater, during the summer holidays.

Guests at the TV chef's Steakhouse Bar & Grill will be able to tuck into a meal without worrying about the cost of their child's meal. 

The offer applies to children under the age of 12. It includes either a starter and main or main and dessert with every paying adult main off the à la carte menu.

The restaurant hopes this will ease pressure on squeezed household budgets with energy prices continuing to rise.

General manager Damian Kaye said: “For mums and dads, the chance to let someone else do the cooking as well as the clearing and washing-up will be quite appealing, while kids just love being taken out for a ‘grown up’ meal.

“We also all need a little escapism and the opportunity to pop out for a meal with your family is a great way to do just that.

“And constantly finding things to do and entertain the kids throughout the holidays can be quite an expensive exercise which is why we’ve put this offer in place.

“Marco’s philosophy on eating out is about simple, authentic food, served in a great environment with a relaxed atmosphere. We serve classic, recognisable dishes that sit perfectly with his ethos of casual, authentic and affordable dining.

“The menus are also perfect for kids, so parents won’t have to worry about there not being anything that they like.

“Whether it’s pasta, fish and chips, and steaks, we’re expecting to see a lot of happy faces during the holidays.”
