Dining in a Michelin star restaurant might seem like a luxury few of us can afford. But, in fact, fine-dining could be cheaper than you think.
In fact, there are plenty of delicious eateries to be enjoyed across the
UK that will cost you less than £35 for a three-course meal.
Kitchen Knives analysed the menus of 163 Michelin star restaurants for 2019. The data shows the total price for starter, main and dessert from the evening menu, or in some cases the price features more than three courses or a taster menu (even better).Hackney wine bar and restaurant, Leroy, came out on cheapest, costing just £23 for a three course meal. Having only opened in March 2018, it’s already been awarded a Michelin star and describes its food as “thoughtful but not showy with a wine list that ranges from the classics to the crazy” according to its website.
