With parents more savvy than ever amid the cost of living crisis, kids eat free deals are more popular than ever. But what you get as part of these promotions varies from place to place.
While some offer just a free main to children, with others you get the whole shebang - with a drink and dessert thrown in too.
M&S launched its new Kids' Munch Menu this week and I went along to give it a whirl.

My visit just happened to coincide with the start of its kids eat free promotion, which is running from now until August 12.
A hot breakfast has been introduced to the menu for the first time and for breakfast kids can choose from dippy eggs and soldiers, avocado and soldiers, or pancakes with blueberries and honey.
As our visit was after 11am, it was the lunch menu we were picking from, with my daughter having the choice of either cheesy tomato pasta, jacket potato with sausage and beans, ham and cheese toastie, cheese and tomato pizza, or avocado soldiers. There's also a sandwich selection available from the fridge.
The offer applies when an adult spends a minimum of £5, so with £8.20 spent on a toastie and a latte for me, my daughter's £3.95 meal was completely free.
That was for a toastie (albeit a smaller one), a gingerbread bee and a drink. All kids get a free piece of fruit with any cafe transaction too.
At the age of 13, my daughter is definitely at the upper end for these deals and while there is no age limit on the kids eat free promotion, it's at each cafe's discretion as to what age they'll serve up to.
She only eats small portions, so with the apple and gingerbread, it was plenty. For a younger child it would be more than enough.
