THE Eat Out to Help Out scheme will officially draw to a close on Bank Holiday Monday after four weeks of slashed prices on food and drink.

But a select few establishments in the North-East have decided to continuing their own discounts, with many offering the same prices, throughout September.

As it stands, all businesses taking part in the government scheme will be able to claim back the remaining 50 per cent.

But businesses that continue to offer discounts beyond August 31, which is its final day, will have to absorb the costs themselves.

The Northern Echo is supporting those businesses and is publishing a list of restaurants, pubs and cafes continuing the offer. 

We will update this list as we become aware of more places offering their own discounts. 

We advise contacting each restaurant for opening times and booking information to avoid disappointment.
