For those living in London, it may seem like there is no such thing as a cheap date. From restaurants to bars, taking someone out for the night is likely to set you back a good chunk of money. However, whilst there might not ever be a truly cheap date, there are plenty of options that offer value for money meaning that, in comparison, the results are very cheap.

Of course, looking outside the box, there are always free things to do, from entertainment on the South Bank to visiting lesser known spots of genuine natural beauty, but if you are looking for something that can be pre-booked ensuring that little can go wrong, one of the best options will be looking into cheap theatre tickets. Whilst buying cheap London theatre tickets alone may not seem like the cheapest night out ever, by combining theatre tickets and a meal you can save a great deal on the price of both and end up getting two very cost-effective parts to your date.

Combining a meal with cheap theatre tickets will often end up costing no more than the normal price of one event, ultimately allowing you to have either a meal or a show effectively for free, and meaning that you don’t have to let worries of reduced cash flow mean you have to look like you are skimping on the night out.

There are of course going to be other options than cheap London theatre tickets, but for something that offers such a full night, there are very few things that will beat a show and meal package in terms of value for money. And if that goes well, you may even decide that one of the many different free options is all that you will need for the next date!
