A dinner date in Luton does not need to be expensive to be enjoyable. If you are meeting one of our Luton escorts, going for food first can be an easy way to settle into the evening. It gives you time to talk, have a drink and enjoy each other’s company before deciding what you want to do next. Plenty of clients would rather keep more of their budget for the booking itself instead of spending heavily on dinner. Luton makes that easy, with several restaurants where two people can eat well without the bill getting out of hand. Here are some of our favourite affordable options for a relaxed dinner date in Luton.
GreeTalian
For something casual in the middle of town, GreeTalian is a reliable option. The address is 15 Manchester Street, Luton LU1 2QB and you can comfortably eat here for around £10–£20 per person, depending on what you order.
The menu mixes Greek and Italian food, which gives you plenty of choice without making the evening feel too formal. A chicken gyros wrap is currently £6.99, pizzas are reasonably priced and their mixed grill for two is £24.99. This is the sort of place that works well when you want to meet, get some food and spend an hour chatting without turning dinner into the main event. It feels relaxed, the menu is easy to choose from and there is no pressure to dress up for the occasion.
Manchester Street also puts you close to the centre of Luton. If your hotel is nearby, or you are heading somewhere else after dinner, you will not have far to travel.
Spice Rack
If Indian food is more your thing, Spice Rack gives you a slightly more traditional sit-down date without pushing the price too high. The address is 76 Wellington Street, Luton LU1 5AA and a typical meal will cost around £15–£25 per person.
One of the better-value times to visit is during its special gourmet nights. These currently run on Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with a five-course meal from £15.95 per person. That makes it particularly useful for a midweek escort date. You can sit down for a proper meal, spend some time together and still have plenty left in the budget for the rest of the evening. Its Wellington Street location is another advantage. You stay close to central Luton, so moving on afterwards is simple whether you are returning to a hotel, stopping for a drink or continuing the date elsewhere.
Indian Ocean
Anyone who likes set menus and wants strong value should take a look at Indian Ocean. The address is 5 Sundon Parade, Sundon Park Road, Luton LU3 3BH and a typical meal costs around £15–£25 per person.
The restaurant currently runs an all-day Sunday buffet for £12.95 per person. On Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, its gourmet night costs £14.95 per person and includes a starter, main dish, side dish, rice or naan and coffee. There is also a set meal for two at £27.90, which makes it easy to know roughly what you are going to spend before you even arrive.
It is a little further away from the town centre than some of the other restaurants on this list, so we would mainly recommend it if you are already staying around Sundon Park or you do not mind taking a short taxi. For couples who want plenty of food at a low price, though, it is one of the strongest options in Luton.
Raj Fine Indian Cuisine
Wellington Street has another good-value choice in Raj Fine Indian Cuisine. You will find it at 78 Wellington Street, Luton LU1 5AA, with a typical spend of around £15-£25 per person.
Many of the familiar curries, including korma, bhuna, madras and masala, are currently priced at £9.95. There are also set menus, including an option for two people at £39.95 with starters, mains, a side dish, rice and naan. That puts a full meal for two at roughly £20 each before drinks, which is reasonable for a proper sit-down restaurant.
We would choose Raj when you want something that feels like a date but still want to keep an eye on the overall spend. You can take your time, order a few dishes to share and enjoy the meal without worrying that the bill is going to jump every time you add something else.
Being in central Luton helps too, especially if you are staying nearby.
Keeping a Luton Dinner Date Affordable
A sensible budget for most of these restaurants is around £30-£50 for two people before drinks. You can spend less if you choose a buffet, set menu or a more casual option. The important thing is not to focus on the menu price alone.
Location matters as well. If you are staying in central Luton, eating around Manchester Street or Wellington Street will usually make more sense than travelling across town to save a few pounds on dinner. Once taxis are added, the cheaper restaurant can easily end up costing more. Clients staying near London Luton Airport can also meet their escort at the hotel first and travel into town together if they want dinner to be part of the booking.
