Simple process
Simple. Thoughtful.
Done in Minutes.
Birthday Steak was designed to remove every bit of friction from gifting a special dining experience. Here's exactly how it works.
For the person giving
Buying a Voucher
Choose the occasion
Browse our experience categories — from 18th birthdays to Father's Day, romantic dinners to stag nights. Or skip this step and give a general gift. Either way works perfectly.
Pick a venue
Browse our handpicked selection of pubs and restaurants across South Yorkshire and North Nottinghamshire. Each one has been chosen for its atmosphere, food quality, and ability to host a proper occasion.
Set the value
Choose from our suggested amounts (£25, £50, £75, £100) or enter a custom value. The voucher covers anything on the menu — food, drinks, starters, desserts — with no restrictions.
Personalise your gift
Add the recipient's name, your name, a personal message, their email, and the first day the voucher should become usable (perfect for birthdays — nothing ticks away before then). You'll see a live preview as you type.
Choose how to deliver it
Send instantly after payment, schedule it for a specific date and time (their birthday, Christmas morning), or send it to yourself to forward at the right moment.
Complete checkout
Pay securely via Stripe. Apple Pay, Google Pay, and all major cards accepted. The whole process takes under 5 minutes.
For the recipient
Receiving & Using a Voucher
They receive a beautiful email
A luxury-designed email arrives with the personal message, venue details, gift value, and unique voucher code. It's properly designed — not a generic coupon.
They register in one step
Using the same email the voucher was delivered to, they confirm who they are with a secure sign-in link. Until then, the venue cannot redeem the code — it protects everyone.
They keep the voucher page handy
Every voucher has its own web page with venue details, dates, and code. They can open it anytime from the email link.
They book and dine
Once their start date has passed and they're registered, they book with the venue, enjoy the menu, and present their code at the end of the meal to redeem.
Important details
Good to Know
How long is the voucher valid?
12 months from the first calendar day the voucher can be used — you choose that date when you buy (up to two months ahead). Nothing runs until then.
Can it be used on any menu item?
Yes — food, drinks, starters, mains, desserts. The full menu, no restrictions.
What if the bill exceeds the voucher value?
The recipient simply pays the difference on the night.
Can I use it for a group booking?
Yes, vouchers can be applied to any bill at the venue.
What if the venue is fully booked?
Once your chosen first day arrives, you still have 12 months to visit — plenty of time to book.
Can I buy multiple vouchers?
Absolutely — each voucher is for a single venue visit.
Ready to give an unforgettable evening?
The whole process takes under 5 minutes. The memory lasts considerably longer.
