Results Day can be a bit of a rollercoaster, so a free meal is a decent consolation prize. From free pizza and Pad Thai to a complimentary pub main course, these are the Results Day offers worth knowing about this August.
Las Iguanas
Students picking up their GCSE, A Level or Scottish exam results can bag a free starter and dessert at Las Iguanas when they buy an adult main course. The offer is available on Thursday 13 August for A Level Results Day and Thursday 20 August for GCSE Results Day.
There’s plenty to choose from, including Hot Honey Halloumi and Smoky Chipotle Chicken Tacos, followed by four cinnamon-dusted churros with chocolate sauce or dulce de leche. Better still, everyone else at the table can get the same deal when they buy a main meal, so the whole family can get involved.
You’ll need to show your exam results when ordering. The offer is for dine-in tables of up to six and is available at participating Las Iguanas restaurants, excluding Centre Parcs. It can’t be combined with other offers, vouchers or discounts.

Rosa’s Thai
Pad Thai for free is a pretty solid way to mark the end of exams. Rosa’s Thai is giving students a free Pad Thai with the purchase of any bubble tea on both Results Days, with more than 4,000 free portions available across its participating restaurants.
The offer runs on Thursday 13 August and Thursday 20 August 2026. Students need to sign up online beforehand to receive a unique code, then show the code alongside their GCSE or A Level results when they visit.
Bubble tea choices include Ube-Taro, Matcha-Coconut, Mango Sticky Rice and Milo Chocolate Milk, alongside favourites such as Thai Tea with Tapioca and Lychee Mango.
The offer is available at participating sites across England and Wales, excluding Edinburgh and Glasgow. It’s for dine-in only and can’t be used with another offer or discount.
Manchester’s Rosa’s Thai is on Deansgate, housed in the Old Courthouse building.

Zizzi
Zizzi is handing out more than 3,700 free Classic Pizzas this Results Day, although you’ll need to be quick. The first 30 students through the door at each participating restaurant can claim one by showing their 2026 exam results and buying a soft drink.
The offer is available on Thursday 13 August for A Level Results Day and Thursday 20 August for GCSE Results Day across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. There’s a choice of classics including Margherita, Pepperoni Campagna, Pollo & Pesto Fresca, Pinoli and Vegan Margherita, with non-gluten options available too.
Miss out on the freebie and there’s still something in it for you. Zizzi is offering 50% off a Classic Pizza until 5pm when you buy a soft drink.
Manchester has Zizzi restaurants at the Corn Exchange, Piccadilly and Trafford Centre.

The deal runs on Thursday 13 August for A Level Results Day and Thursday 20 August for GCSE Results Day. Students simply need to show their results when ordering. The free meal comes with the purchase of one full-price main meal.
