About Exeter

What this list covers

Seven of Exeter's ten participating restaurants run their offers throughout the year — Bella Italia, Côte Brasserie, Pizza Express, Pizza Hut, Prezzo, Toby Carvery, and Turtle Bay are all open to families regardless of term dates. The remaining three — Bill's, Las Iguanas, and Zizzi — activate only during school holidays, so the timing of your visit genuinely changes what is available to you. Geographically, the bulk of the action clusters in the EX4 postcode area, which accounts for seven of the ten sites, with two in EX1 and one in EX2. Every venue here belongs to a named chain. If you want to eat out mid-term without doing homework first, stick to the year-round seven.

Holiday-only chains in Exeter: Bill's, Las Iguanas, Zizzi. These quietly flip in for half-term and summer; outside the school holidays they drop off the list.

Verified by the kidseatfree.co.uk editorial team. Every venue here passes a 14-day freshness check; if a chain stops running its offer, it silently drops off the list.
