You can grab 50% off food (main courses) and non-alcoholic drinks as part of the deal. This is up to £10 per person, discounted and available every Monday to Wednesday until April 30.
The brand said it was doing this because 'the restaurant industry has been hit hard by rising costs, taxes and wages, making it difficult for businesses to stay open and for customers to afford to dine out'.

The "Eat Out to Help Out" scheme was a British government initiative, no longer active, that aimed to support the hospitality industry after the COVID-19 pandemic.

It must be noted that a final decision has not been made yet, and the board is still reviewing options. KHC is also figuring out which brands would go with the new spinoff. Kraft Heinz Sheds Italian Brands The news came after Kraft Heinz disclosed the sale of its Italian infant and specialty food business to NewPrinces Group. The divestiture includes well-known brands such as Plasmon, Nipiol, Dieterba, Aproten, and Biaglut, along with a major production facility in Latina, Italy.

Bitcoin hits a record high! UK BSTR Miner: Cloud mining + liquidity mining, helping global investors seize opportunities.

London, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 【Click here to learn more about BSTR Miner】 The global digital asset market has reached a milestone. The price of Bitcoin (BTC) broke through the $117,000 mark this week, setting a new record high. This round of strong market not only confirms the long-term resilience of Bitcoin as a digital value storage tool, but also significantly pushes up the profit expectations of global miners. However, traditional physical mining farms face multiple barriers such as high mining machine procurement costs, complex professional technical operation and maintenance, energy price fluctuations and hardware iteration pressure, which hinder ordinary investors from participating. BSTR Miner, a cloud mining service provider headquartered in the City of London, announced that its innovative 'cloud mining + liquidity mining' dual-track model has been fully upgraded, aiming to provide global investors with a more convenient and efficient channel to participate in the prosperity of the Bitcoin ecosystem and seize this round of historic opportunities for digital asset growth. Industry background: computing power asset allocation becomes a new trend The Bitcoin network relies on global distributed computing power to maintain network security and generate new blocks. Miners who successfully verify blocks receive BTC rewards. As the competition for professional mining machine computing power becomes increasingly fierce, the cloud mining model reconstructs the industry ecology through computing power securitization. Users rent computing power units (Hash Power) from certified platforms, and the platform is responsible for mining machine hosting, energy procurement and technical maintenance. Investors obtain corresponding BTC output daily according to the proportion of computing power. BSTR Miner core advantage: UK compliant operation BSTR Miner relies on the European clean energy network and professional mining farm management system to provide differentiated services: Zero operation and maintenance burden The platform is fully responsible for mining machine procurement, global mining farm deployment (including renewable energy hubs in Iceland and Norway) and 7×24 hours technical support, and users have no equipment depreciation or electricity cost risks. Stable income architecture Using Bitmain's latest S21 Hyd mining machine (energy efficiency ratio 16J/TH), deployed in the Nordic data center with stable temperature control and power supply, to ensure the unit computing power output efficiency. Flexible contract configuration Short-term experience: 2-15 day contracts, starting from $10 Medium-term configuration: 20-50 day contracts, enjoy tiered computing power discounts Long-term investment: 60-day and above contracts, lock in low-priced computing power to hedge market fluctuations 【Click here to view all contract details】 Transparent data traceability The user-side dashboard displays the computing power operation status, daily BTC output (settled at 00:00 London time) and cashable balance in real time, and all data can be verified on the chain. Compliance fund management Support mainstream cryptocurrency deposits. [Such as: USDT-TRC20, BTC, ETH, LTC, USDC, BNB, USDT-ERC20, BCH, DOGE, SOL (Solana)]. User income can be directly withdrawn to the crypto wallet or service provider account. Market response and industry outlook This round of Bitcoin rise is accompanied by a net inflow of more than US$1.2 billion in North American spot ETFs in a single week. Eleanor Whitaker, chief strategy officer of BSTR Miner, pointed out: 'The entry of institutional funds strengthens the asset attributes of Bitcoin, but individual investors still need to avoid the risks of physical mining operations. The essence of cloud mining is the financialization of computing power. We are working with the London Clearing House to develop computing power derivative hedging tools, which are expected to be launched in Q1 2026.' Investors can register through the platform's official website ( New users can receive a $10 reward for registration, which can be directly used for contract signing. As of press time, BSTR Miner's UK users have increased by 217% quarter-on-quarter, and the platform's computing power reserves have reached 1.7 EH/s.

McDonald's brings back popular menu item after nine years

Launched in 2006 amid the chain's attempts to reach more drive-thru customers, the McDonald's (MCD) Snack Wrap spent 10 years on the menu before eventually getting discontinued in 2016. At the time, the fast-food giant's corporate team wanted to speed up back-of-house operations and felt that the time it took employees to assemble the chicken, lettuce, shredded cheddar and Monterrey cheese and choice of customer sauce in a tortilla wrap could be better redirected to a simpler menu of classics. But in the 10 years it spent on menus both in the U.S. and countries such as Canada, Poland and Australia, the Snack Wrap developed a small cult following - between 2016 and 2025, frequent customers have periodically clamored for its return. It did make a short reappearance in select markets in 2020 but disappeared nearly as quickly as it returned. Don't miss the move: SIGN UP for TheStreet's FREE Daily newsletter McDonald's first teased the possibility of a Snack Wrap return in December 2023 when it first said that a rebranded McCrispy Snack Wrap would hit menus at some point in 2025. Last April, McDonald's sent out a cryptic tweet promising a much closer Snack Wrap return while U.S. President Joe Erlinger confirmed it with a statement that he gets "so many emails into my inbox about this product." Without much prior warning, McDonald's has now suddenly start selling Snack Wraps from July 10. Available in either a ranch and spicy version habanero sauce, the revamped Snack Wrap sells for $2.99 and is made almost entirely like the version from the past with chicken, cheese and lettuce wrapped together in a flour tortilla. In a nod to a past meal combo that many fans also remember, the Snack Wrap will also be available as a combo with two wraps, a medium fries and a soft drink.

"They're the ones who inspired us to make its return to the menu happen." The chain has not specified whether the Snack Wrap will be a seasonal promotion or is once again a permanent menu item; as of now, it is available to order after the chain switches from its breakfast hours. Leaning heavily into its chicken offering, McDonald's has also launched the McChicken Biscuit and Chicken McGriddle breakfast sandwiches in select Michigan markets earlier this summer. Both were first made available in 2020 but eventually discontinued as the country emerged from the covid-19 pandemic; now they are part of the "Chicken For Breakfast" campaign that McDonald's launched in Michigan earlier this year. All three returning items follow the high-profile launch of the McDonald's McCrispy Strips back in May.
