Restaurants across Rutherglen and Cambuslang have been signing up for the UK government’s Eat Out to Help Out scheme.
Eat Out to Help Out stickers and posters will start to appear in the windows of restaurants, cafes, bars and other establishments across the country, customers who want to take advantage of the scheme are advised to look out for the logo.
Already 86 eateries have signed up for the scheme across the whole of South Lanarkshire.
The logo means diners that eat-in will benefit from a 50 per cent discount, up to a maximum of £10 per person, on food and non-alcoholic drinks, any Monday to Wednesday in August.
No voucher is required and diners can take advantage of the offer as many times as they like during the month.
Across the UK, more than 53,000 outlets have signed up including chains such as KFC, Wetherspoons, Costa Coffee and Pizza Hut.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak said: “Our restaurants, cafes and bars play a vital role in our economy, employing more than a million people. They have been hit hard by coronavirus, so it’s vital we do everything we can to help them recover.
“Our Eat Out to Help Out scheme is designed to get more customers through the door – protecting jobs by giving businesses the confidence to retain and hire staff.
