M&S cheap food offers: a complete guide

M&S has several meal deals, but they are only available at certain times so it can be difficult to keep track of what you can get hold of.
We reveal all the meal deals M&S has to offerand when these deals are likely to be available.

M&S Dine In for two – £12
Earlier this year, M&Shiked the price of its Dine In for two offerfrom £10 to £12.
While there is a wider range of dishes to choose from, you don’t get anything extra for the higher price – so you’ll still get a main, side and a starter or dessert.
M&S used to change the menu every few weeks, but it does so far less frequently these days.
The M&S Dine In menu varies, so you could getanything from barbeque dishes, traditional British cuisine, fish dishes and occasionally steak.

M&S Family meal deal – £15
TheFamily meal dealtends to run alongside the £12 Dine In deal. Unlike other deals, the price of the Family meal deal can vary but at the time of writing, will set you back £15.
The menu, which has included Tex-Mex dishes and American cuisine in the past, changes on a regular basis.
For £15, you can usually pick up two mains and four sides. This deal is designed for four people rather than two, so you should get more food than the £12 Dine In deal.

M&S Family Pizza meal deal – £12
M&S has recently hiked the price of its Family Pizza meal dealfrom £10 to £12.
Sadly, you won’t get anything extra for the higher price, but you can still choose two pizzas and two sides (or desserts).
You can currently choose from ninepizzas, including BBQ chicken and cheese and ham pizza. The sidesare quite varied and includeanything from crispy mushrooms to mac and cheese bites to chocolate cookie traybake.
Similar to the M&S Family meal deal, this should serve four people. You can find out more about the £12M&S Family Pizza dealhere.
M&S Valentine’s Day special – £20
As you might expect, the M&S Valentine’s Day Dine In meal deal is usually available shortly before the big romantic day and replaces the traditional Dine In for two offer in stores.
At £20 it is more expensive than the normal offer, but you do get a more generous menu including a starter, side, main, dessert and a bottle of wine or some chocolates.

M&S Easter Dine In special - £20
The M&S Easter Dine In meal deal is only available in-store a few days before Easter.
While this deal is more expensive than the Dine In for two deal, this does feed four people as you get a roasting joint, three sides and a sharing dessert.
Unfortunately, you don’t get a bottle of wine or non-alcoholic substitute with this deal, but you could save up to £12.50 compared to buying the items separately.
You should note the price and offer details may change next year.
M&S Mother’s Day Dine In special - £20
The M&S Mother’s Day Dine In deal is very similar to the Easter special offer above – the price is the same and the menus werenearly identical this year.
It costs £20 and feeds four people, but it was only available for a limited time. You get a roasting joint, three sides and a sharing dessert instead of the usual £12 Dine In options.
You should note the price and offer details may change next year.
