SUSSEX streets were bustling last month as food-lovers made the most of 50 per cent discounts at some of their favourite restaurants.

The saving came courtesy of the government's Eat Out to Help Out scheme, which halved diner's bills on orders up to £10 per person every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday between August 3 and 31.

This was only available at registered restaurants, though it has been reported that more than 85,000 eateries signed up to the scheme.

Many were disappointed when the scheme drew to a close at the end of last month.

But, with the success of the discount in drawing diners back out to pubs, bars and restaurants, some businesses have chosen to continue providing similar offers throughout September.

These are some of the sites that we know are offering Eat Out to Help Out-style saving this month in Sussex:
