The Brasserie has been a favourite of mine for years! Why? Because it’s a cosy, family-friendly restaurant that has some really delicious deals. I love a good bargain as much as I love good food and wine!

I have been to The Brasserie for their Lunch Club and their Sunday Roast on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. I can assure you, you won’t be either.  

Here are their delicious deals:
