It\u2019s probably something to do with far fewer people having any money and pubs and restaurants facing a notably challenging post-Christmas lull. <\/p>\n<p>Here, we\u2019ve rounded up 30 deals that particularly appeal, from some of London\u2019s best restaurants to high street chains. There are some restaurants included in this list which we\u2019ve not been to in a long time, so we must say: this isn\u2019t an endorsement or anything of the sort, merely a compilation of some of the cheapest ways to dine out in London this winter. Still, some of them were too good to ignore. \u00a35 pasta, anyone?<\/p>\n<p>The set lunch is back at Phil Howard\u2019s Elystan Street. It\u2019s an astonishingly good deal, this \u2014 three courses of Michelin-starred cooking for \u00a326. The menu will change weekly but at the time of writing includes sourdough bread and butter, a Cornish fishcake with tartare sauce, pickled cucumber and dill, coq au vin and creamed potatoes, and a clementine parfait. Superb.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cinnamon Club, Westminster<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2001 pricing, with mains from \u00a35<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/CKCITY_Chef-Vivek-3.jpg\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2997\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"sc-eqUAAy kRUyJB\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Cinnamon Collection<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 per cent off food and Champagne for \u00a310-a-glass for mailing list subscribers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/going-out\/restaurants\/canal-westbourne-park-london-review-grand-union-regents-b1238538.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">This terrific restaurant <\/a>is offering a dining discount to its newsletter subscribers, so you need to join the list to qualify. Afterwards, diners get 50 per cent off food and champagne for \u00a310 a glass. It\u2019s a stupendous deal, well worth doing. Have the crab on toast.  <\/p>\n<p>London\u2019s longest-standing Michelin-starred restaurant is offering what may be its cheapest deal since its earliest days in the 1990s. As it steps into its 35th year, David Moore\u2019s restaurant is offering three courses for \u00a335, available for both lunch and early dinner bookings. The restaurant isn\u2019t skimping on the dishes, either: the menu, at the moment, includes the likes of cod with pumpkin, praline and trompette mushrooms, and guinea fowl with parsnip, coco nibs, walnut and coffee. A vegan menu is also available. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bottomless brunch for \u00a349 (down from \u00a370)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The endlessly cool Hackney restaurant is doing a bottomless brunch throughout January. Each weekend between 12-3pm customers can have unlimited prosecco and cocktails for 90 minutes with a menu of fine British cooking. Dishes might include tomato and basil croquettes, tuna tataki, fried sea bream with curry sauce, and slow-cooked beef short rib. The deal is \u00a349 per person in January, down from the usual \u00a370. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Cocotte, multiple London locations <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/cocottejpg.jpg\" width=\"2458\" height=\"1639\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"sc-eqUAAy kRUyJB\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The modern French rotisserie restaurant is putting on a set menu throughout January. The deal is a \u00a320 set menu including a starter, a quarter chicken, a side and a sauce, with dessert available for \u00a34. Available Sunday to Thursday evenings from 5pm throughout January.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a316 courses for two courses, \u00a320 for three<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Soho seafood restaurant is offering a set menu throughout January. It\u2019s super affordable: \u00a316 for two courses or \u00a320 for three. Starters include celeriac soup and deep-fried whitebait before mains of smoked haddock fishcakes, chicken curry, or pumpkin ravioli. <\/p>\n<p><strong>108 Brasserie, Marylebone<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Two courses for \u00a330, three for \u00a335<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The brasserie is offering a seasonal contemporary European set menu throughout January, available for both lunch and dinner.

They include two curries, rice, chaat and a soft drink. If you\u2019ve not been to Mowgli, it\u2019s comparable to Dishoom and Kricket, but was founded in Birmingham rather than London. There\u2019s also a \u00a325 deal on throughout the year with a handful of dishes, including a \u201ccurry roulette\u201d, where the team picks for the table.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 per cent off for mailing list subscribers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The South London-based Three Cheers Pub Co., which operates the Latchmere in Battersea, the Bedford in Balham and the Tommyfield in Kennington, is doing a big food discount for mailing list subscribers throughout January.

It includes edamame, miso soup, and a mushroom curry and is available on weekdays. Adding a plate or two of sushi wouldn\u2019t break the bank, either.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Riviera London, St James\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One course for \u00a319, two for \u00a334, three for \u00a341<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The restaurant is serving a C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur-inspired set lunch menu throughout January, focusing on Mediterranean dishes.

Until January 29. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Tattu London, Tottenham Court Road<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The food at Tattu is better than might be expected, given it\u2019s a chain from Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester and is found in the Outernet.

Diners can get \u00a31 gyozas, steamed or fried and veg or chicken, with a minimum order of five. They\u2019re available daily between 3-6pm. Cheap anywhere, but especially in Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>Normally fairly expensive for an everyday pub \u2014 a \u201cmeat board\u201d comprising a slider, fried chicken, chorizo croquettes, padron peppers and fries will usually set you back \u00a335 \u2014 but over January you can get mains for a tenner or three small plates for \u00a320. Salt and pepper squid, halloumi fries, steak and chips and sausage and mash, that sort of thing. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Two courses for \u00a319, three for \u00a323<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/The Guinea Grill.jpg\" width=\"2600\" height=\"1733\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"sc-eqUAAy kRUyJB\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Press Handout<\/p>\n<p>Numerous pubs in the Young\u2019s group, including the Windmill in Clapham and the Bunch of Grapes in London Bridge, are doing two courses for \u00a319 or three for \u00a323. The menu is the same across the board. Think pub classics, fairly modern and serviceable. The offer is on until February 27.<\/p>\n<p>The Ivy Collection has relaunched its two-course, \u00a319.17 menu over January and February. Starters range from French onion soup to duck liver parfait, while main courses include a pan-fried sea bream with fennel and the restaurant\u2019s famous shepherd\u2019s pie. Not on at the original Ivy in Covent Garden, but at all the others. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Weekday set lunch for \u00a325<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Kapara was the first opening from ex-Ottolenghi chef Eran Tibi, who serves plates of Tel Aviv-inspired cooking. With low lights and low-key club beats pumping through the night, it\u2019s the sort of place for a lively date. The restaurant is offering a Mediterranean-inspired lunch set menu on weekdays, comprising two courses and a side for \u00a325. It\u2019s on during the week, 11am until 5pm. The menu features the likes of sea bass ceviche, beetroot carpaccio, beef fillet skewers and aubergine roulade.<\/p>\n<p>Remember Bill\u2019s?

The offers are available between Wednesday and Sunday until January 28.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harrild &amp; Sons, Farringdon<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Three small plates for \u00a320<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The bar is offering a small-plates sharing deal throughout January, or three for \u00a320.

It\u2019s two courses for \u00a315 or three for \u00a319. Dishes include potted crab and steak frites, which makes the offer ludicrously low.
