Using Tesco vouchers in Restaurants.

Hello All,

I've recently exchanged my Tesco clubcard vouchers into Restaurant vouchers for Prezzo - my boyfriend and I have £40 worth to spend on food.

My questions is - do you have to mention the vouchers when you book a table? or when you order?

Having never used them before just want to double check!

    The answer is no, just bear in mind when u use your vouchers you cant use them on drinks and deserts, although when i went to bella italia i paid part voucher part cash and they took full value off the vouchers off so had 4 drinks for £2.49.

    I have always mentioned that I will be paying with tesco vouchers when ordering.
    Make £2 a day challenge - doing well so far.
  • Desserts not included :o(

    I know drinks aren't as it says so on the vouchers, but not mention of dessert not being included!
  • Drinks and Desert offer best mark up (i remember from when it was my business) so that may explain why they are excluded.

    I just exchange mine for Airmiles, i am probably missing some great opportunities...

    Is the dessert thing new then? I've always used my Bella vouchers for food, all food. It's just the drinks that are excluded.

    And, no, never mention, just present the vouchers/cash when the bill comes! Cynical I know, but I wonder if you would get inferior food or something!! :D

    We always just say when we order and we use these 4 times a year if not more.Id second what was said about bella italia,they just take the total off so have ended up not even paying the full amount for drinks .

    I always mention it before ordering. Never had a problem. Also I've got desserts with them. But best to check that too!
