Diners can enjoy a 50 per cent discount at Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill next year.

The offer will be available throughout January at the restaurant in the Leonardo Royal Hotel, West Quay Road.

The deal will include all main courses devised by the renowned chef and restaurateur, except sharing steaks.

Monica Kania, restaurant manager said: "This is a fantastic offer. With the New Year being a time when a lot of people tighten their belts following the over-indulgence of Christmas, to enjoy a main course for half the price is a great way to go out for a meal.

"We have a wonderful variety of main course dishes so there’s plenty of choice for guests to select from. This includes Roast Chicken à la Forestière, Roast Rump of Lamb à la Dijonnaise, Escalope of Salmon ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ and a Mixed Mediterranean Vegetable Ravioli.

"On the seasonal specials there’s also Roast Cod with Lentils & Pancetta, Simpson’s Cottage Pie, Wheeler’s of St James’s Fishcake and a Pea & Shallot Ravioli.

"And anyone who fancies a steak can choose from our superb range of grass-fed, Campbell Brothers’ beef and includes our signature and classic options.

"Marco’s philosophy on eating out is about simple, authentic food, served in a great environment with a relaxed atmosphere. We serve classic, recognisable dishes that sit perfectly with his ethos of casual, authentic and affordable dining and this offer makes it even more attractive."
