The deal allows guests pay once and eat as many portions of the same appetizer as they want for £9.99 with the option of getting a different started every time for £3 more with no limit on how many portions guests can have.

The ‘Endless Appetizer’ deal does include most of the appetizer meals available however, with 22 of the 26 listed included.

A statement from TGI’s said: “Unfortunately, we are not able to include our Jack Daniels-branded appetizers in this promotion due to our agreement with them. However, guests are always able to purchase a separate portion of Jack Daniels sauce to go with any of the appetizers for just 99p.

“With 85% of Fridays appetizers included in the offer, we feel this offers a fantastic level of choice to our guests.
