...a discount website promoting the Hi-Life Diners Club.
The Hi-Life Diners club is a great opportunity for those that dine out reguarly and features high class restaurants including Est, Est, Est, The Fat Cat, The Slug and Lettuce, Brewers Fayres, Nandos, The Living Room, Tiger Tiger and many many more.
I mentioned the offer to my partner who initially thought it to be a good idea but it was forgotten about until I picked up a leaflet several weeks ... ...out the Hi-life website which listed a great deal of the restaurants.
I decided to contact the call centre to obtain my membership as I had the leaflet from the Brewers Fayre restaurant this gave me £10 off the annual cost totalling £49.95.
I called 01253 608910 and I was transferred through to a customer services representative who took my details and set me up with a membership. I arrange to pay by direct debit which worked out at £12.50 per ...

Advantages: Great money saver Disadvantages: Restaurants not in all areas
I have been a member of Hi LIfe Diners Club for approximately 4 years now and I think that it is excellent value for money. Basically, when you join the Hi Life club you are sent a Hi Life card and restaurant directory. The directory lists hundreds of restaurants including a short description of what the restaurant is like, what you can expect to pay etc. Each restaurant offers a different deal on production of your Hi Life card, such as buy 3 courses ... ...complimentary main course, 25% reduction from the food bill, and so on.
The card is like a credit card but it is covered in tiny numbered squares. Each numbered square corresponds to a restaurant and when you use your card in that particular restaurant the square is marked off, unless the restaurant is marked as a 'repeat offer' restaurant in your directory, if this is the case you can use your card as many times as you like!!
The areas covered ...

Advantages: Some good value meal deals to be had (Caffe Uno recommended) Disadvantages: Limited availability of dining; Embarrassment caused by use of card
...as a member of the Hi-Life Card scheme. The concept is a very good one - but unfortunately, the real-life experience of using the card doesn't match the advertsing hype.
For around £40 - 50 a year you get a card and a directory of participating restaurants for your local area (North West/Yorkshire/N Ireland or NE England). The idea is then that you can use the card to get 2-4-1 meals (up to 3 courses) at mainly off-peak times and days of the week. ... ...of a table, mention the Hi-Life card.
In South Yorkshire we have seen a large number of Sheffield-based restaurants close or leave the scheme over the last 12 months and so it really is questionable now whether Hi-Life have got sufficient signed-up contacts to operate effectively in this area. That situation doesn't seem to be the case in Leeds and Manchester - so this may still be a better deal for those of you who live near those 2 cities. The ...

Advantages: Not many Disadvantages: Driving the proffit out of the industry
...a review by a former Hi-Life member (peter I think), and I thought that as somebody who has worked in the industry myself for many years in a number of North West Hi life restaurants, I should add my opinion.
From somebody who has dealt with umpteen bookings from hi-life members, I can confirm that there definately is a 'type'. It seems that although they are essentially getting their meal half price that they always make more complaints than anybody ... ...for a restaurant is that hi-life have now become so big that they are almost single handedly driving the proffit out of a difficult enough industry. It was actually a factor that put me off opening my own restaurant in the area. My boss used to say it had become a case of 'can't live with them, cant live without them'. She said that the man who ran it was making a fortune out of watching others give away theirs. It seemed that many other restaurants ...

Advantages: saves you money Disadvantages: some confusion over offers at the restraunt
A friend of mine saw the club advertised in the yorkshire post a couple of months ago and joined the club. (passing the article on for me to look at)
i have now been a member for 3 years
The hi life diners club cost £45 to join for annual membership if you quote YP.OR for platinum membership £75
There is a web site you can check out to see the list of restaurants included and in what areas.
My card is for the yorkshire region but i believe there ... ...to posh ones live ROOM /livebailtcasa mia/cuban heels/and many more
So you ask what is the card all about????
Well basically you get 2 for the price of 1 meals out at different restaurants in the area.
so if you have three courses each you pay for just the three cheapest
Restrictions do apply to some (not sat nights etc)
but these are different for each place. Also the restaurant offer is only supposed to be for a one off visit and they mark ...
