IT is the last full week of the government's Eat Out to Help Out scheme which has seen venues packed and tables fully-booked in a matter of minutes.

Throughout August, venues across the country have been offering customers 50 per cent off.

Customers have been treated to half price food and drink, up to a total value of £10 per person every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

We've put together a list of twelve restaurants in and around Durham City that are taking part in the scheme.

Of course, there are many more venues participating across town - and you can see the full list of them here
