Beefeater is one of Whitbread's most well-known restaurant brands. It is usually paired with Premier Inn, with the two forming a dining and sleeping option that appears by busy roads across the country, including on land designated to be part of a service area.
Whitbread have been known to change between different dining brands. Many Beefeaters became Out & Out (now Table Table) in 2000. Some of those have since converted back. The long-standing Beefeater restaurants have undergone several transformation though: one in the early 2000s and one in 2013.
As with most pub-themed chains, each branch has its own localised name.
On 30 April 2024, Whitbread announced that they are set to close over 200 of its branded restaurants due to financial difficulties caused by COVID-19 and the cost of living crisis as part of their new Accelerated Growth Plan. The first of these closures began in July 2024, with more restaurants set to close over the coming months.
