7 Free Food Deals and Savings Programs in Hong Kong

Beyond the McDonald’s gift card draws, there are several other ways to save on dining and everyday food expenses in Hong Kong. From free giveaway apps to restaurant loyalty programmes and coupon platforms, these resources can help you reduce your monthly spending without giving up the meals you enjoy.

Weekly Gift Card Draws (BestDeals)

BestDeals is a free app that runs weekly gift card giveaways from popular retailers and restaurant chains. Users enter the draw each week at no cost — no purchase required, no subscription fee, and no credit card needed to participate.

The app also features a curated deals section highlighting current discounts, limited-time offers, and seasonal promotions across dining, shopping, and entertainment. For users already looking to save money in Hong Kong, it consolidates several useful features in one place.

Free Food Deals and Savings Programmes

1. McDonald’s App Hong Kong

The official McDonald’s Hong Kong app runs daily promotions, exclusive coupons, and a rewards programme that lets you earn points with every purchase. Recent promotions have included free upsize on drinks, buy-one-get-one-free offers on selected burgers, and discounted meal bundles during weekday lunch hours.

The app frequently releases limited-time coupons that are not available in-store. Checking the app before ordering — even if you are already at the restaurant — can save HK$10 to HK$30 per visit.

2. OpenRice Deals

OpenRice is Hong Kong’s largest restaurant review and booking platform, and it also features a deals section with discounted dining offers. Participating restaurants list special set menus, early-bird discounts, and exclusive OpenRice bundles — typically 20–40% below regular menu prices. The platform covers everything from fast food chains to fine dining, and deals are updated daily.

3. Eatigo — Time-Based Restaurant Discounts

Eatigo offers discounts of up to 50% at hundreds of restaurants across Hong Kong. The discount percentage varies based on the time slot you book — off-peak hours (typically 2:00–5:00 PM and after 9:00 PM) offer the steepest savings. There is no minimum spend, no voucher to purchase, and the discount applies automatically to the entire bill. Chains and independent restaurants alike participate.

4. Octopus Rewards

If you use an Octopus card for daily payments — as most Hong Kong residents do — the Octopus Rewards programme offers automatic cashback and points earning at participating merchants. This includes convenience stores (7-Eleven, Circle K), fast food chains, supermarkets, and transport services. Points can be redeemed for gift cards, statement credits, or partner rewards.

5. Klook Dining Deals

Klook, while primarily known as a travel and activities platform, offers a growing selection of dining deals in Hong Kong. These include prepaid meal vouchers at discounted prices, buffet deals, and afternoon tea packages at hotels and restaurants. Discounts typically range from 15% to 30% off walk-in prices, and vouchers can be purchased and redeemed through the app.

6. Supermarket Savings Programmes

For everyday grocery expenses, Hong Kong’s major supermarket chains offer several ways to save:

• Wellcome (yuu Rewards) — the yuu rewards programme lets you earn points on purchases at Wellcome, Mannings, 7-Eleven, and IKEA. Points are redeemable for cash rebates on future purchases.
• ParknShop (MoneyBack) — the MoneyBack programme operates across ParknShop, Watsons, Fortress, and SU-PA-DE-PA. Points earn cash vouchers, and members receive exclusive offers and double-points promotions throughout the year.
• HKTV Mall — Hong Kong’s largest online supermarket platform frequently offers free delivery promotions, flash sales, and exclusive online prices that undercut brick-and-mortar equivalents.

Coupon and Discount Tools

Several free platforms aggregate current deals, promo codes, and cashback offers relevant to Hong Kong consumers:

• RetailMeNot — aggregates promotional codes and cashback offers from international and local retailers. Features food delivery deals from Deliveroo, Foodpanda, and Uber Eats.
• Picodi — an international coupon platform with a dedicated Hong Kong section. Their editorial team verifies codes regularly, with reported savings of up to 30% on selected promotions.
• CouponBirds — a community-driven platform where users share and rate discount codes in real time. Active codes for Hong Kong merchants are typically verified within hours of posting.
• HKTVmall Coupons — the platform regularly issues coupon codes for free delivery, percentage-off deals, and product-specific discounts that can be stacked with existing sale prices.

Tip: stacking loyalty programme points with coupon codes and cashback apps can reduce your food spending by 15–25% per month. For example, ordering McDonald’s through the app during a promotional period, paying with an Octopus card enrolled in the rewards programme, and using a valid coupon code yields savings from three separate sources in a single transaction.
