Chope is the restaurant booking platform that runs deals alongside its main booking business. The Chope vouchers work as a prepaid set-pricing format — buy a voucher for $19.90, redeem at the participating restaurant for a set menu that would normally cost $30-40.
The set menu structure varies by restaurant but typically includes:
- A starter or appetiser
- A main
- A dessert
- A drink (sometimes)
The $19.90 voucher tier sits at the budget-to-mid casual restaurant price point. It’s designed to bring in foot traffic during phase 2 reopening when restaurants needed steady customer flow, and the discount comes from offering set-pricing rather than letting customers order à la carte from the regular menu.
The starter was the lighter opener. Probably a small soup, a salad, or a simple appetiser like a small platter of cheese or charcuterie.
The main was the substantial component. A protein-and-carb plate at the casual restaurant tier — a pasta, a grilled chicken or fish, a rice bowl, depending on the restaurant’s set composition.
Dessert was a small plate of the kitchen’s standard offerings — a wedge of cake, a small portion of ice cream, or a fruit-based dessert.
The drink (if included) was usually a soft drink, iced tea, or a glass of house wine.
At $19.90 per person for the set menu, this is real value pricing. Full menu equivalent would have cost $30-40 per person.
The pattern of using subscription deals (Burpple Beyond, Chope vouchers, Citibank promos) to access the restaurant tier had been our throughline through phase 2. The deals made the casual sit-down dinner format accessible at sub-$25-per-person pricing, which is the sustainable rate for regular dining out.
Phase 2 had its rhythm, and the subscription deals were part of how we’d kept the restaurant tier in the rotation without budget creep.
Overall: 4.5 / 5. 😋👍🏼 Excellent Chope voucher dinner — would chase the next deal.
