Students across the country will be looking to celebrate (or maybe commiserate) as they receive their A-level results.
Various restaurants across the UK are offering deals, discounts and freebies to students on results day, so you can have your fill regardless of whether you got the grades you were hoping for.
From pizza to chicken and dessert deals too – there’s plenty for you to choose from to mark the occasion.
Here are all the free food deals you need to know about this A-level results day…
Nando’s
Nando’s is famed for its results day offer, and students can get some of the famous chicken on the house to celebrate.
You can get a free quarter chicken or any starter when you spend £7, which is fairly easily done once you get a drink and anything else to eat.
Bring your student ID and results (this can be an email or printout) and show them to the cashier when you order.
The offer is valid to eat-in or walk-in collect.
Frankie & Benny’s
The New York-Italian chain is offering a free margherita pizza for students, for one day only.
You can claim the freebie, which normally costs £11.75, by showing proof of 2025 exam results when dining in.
The offer runs all day on 14th August for A-level students and all day on 21st August for GCSE students.
Doughnation
This new pizza spot at 3 Henrietta Street in Covent Garden is offering free dessert to students on and around A-level results day.
All you have to do is buy a pizza, such as the iconic Potato Pizza, Ndjua with rocket and Pecorino or the Covent Garden Vegan, and then claim a free sweet treat by showing your results.
Dessert options include a Skillet Cookie with chocolate chip ice cream and white chocolate sauce or an English Rhubarb Knickerbocker Glory with whipped cream, poached rhubarb and Madagascan vanilla ice cream.
The offer is running from August 14 to August 17.
Bird & Blend Tea Co.
Students can claim a free iced matcha latte worth £4.50 on A-level results day, choosing from a selection of over 20 flavours.
All you need to do to redeem your free drink is show your results and student ID at the cash desk.
The offer applies to one free drink per persona and will be available at all Bird & Blend stores between 11am and 5pm.
Bird & Blend locations include Bath, Brighton, Bristol, Cambridge, Canterbury, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Guildford, Leeds, Lincoln, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Norwich, Nottingham, Oxford, Rye, Sheffield, Worthing, York and London sites: Angel, Borough, Covent Garden and Portobello.
Las Iguanas
This year, you can get yourself a free portion of churros if you visit Las Iguanas between August 14 and August 21 with your results.
It’s best to book your table in advance to avoid disappointment, and don’t forget to take your A-level results with you to prove that you’re eligible for the offer.
Bella Italia
On August 14, you could claim a free starter and dessert if you show proof of your results to your server.
There is one catch though, the freebies are only valid if you order a main dish.
But there’s good news – the offer applies to your whole table, not just you.
Chiquito
Take a fellow adult along with you to Chiquito after getting your results and one of you will be eating for free.
That’s because 2025 graduates are able to claim a free adult main meal, with the purchase of one other adult free main meal. The cheapest main will then be discounted from the final bill.
All you have to do is show proof of your exam results or proof of 2025 graduation.
There is a slight catch though – the offer excludes the Ultimate Fajita, Whole Rack of Ribs, and Mexican Sirloin.
Any additional upgrades or double up fillings will be charged separately and you also can’t use it in conjunction with any other deal, set menu, voucher or discount.
The offer is running from now until December 4, so you’ve got a little while to claim your free food, but worth noting that you cannot do so on key calendar dates such as Father’s Day, Christmas Day, etc.
Chiquito asks that you let your server know about your intention to claim the offer when ordering and remind them again when ready to pay.
Bill’s
Order a main meal or brunch at Bill’s this results day and you’ll be able to nab a free dessert too.
Simply book a table, order a main meal and show your results to your server to claim.
Wildwood
The Italian chain are offering one free starter or dessert, plus a Coke Zero when you order a main meal.
To claim these, you’ll need to show your results to your server as well as a Student ID if you have one.
This deal is only available on August 14 for A-level results and August 21 for GCSEs and you’ll have to dine-in to claim it.
Mention the code ALEVEL2025 to your server.
