How long does a Miller and Carter Gift Voucher last?

24 August 2026

The Miller & Carter Gift Voucher is one of the most popular dining vouchers in the UK. It offers premium steaks and a tasteful restaurant experience, without breaking the bank. Like most gift vouchers, it comes with terms and conditions, including a validity period. Understanding the gift voucher’s expiry terms is essential to getting the most value from it. 

In this guide, we cover everything you need to know about the Miller and Carter Gift Voucher’s expiry period. We’ll explain how long the voucher is valid for, the key T&Cs to keep in mind, and a step-by-step guide on how to check your balance.

What the Miller and Carter Gift Voucher expiry is

The Miller & Carter Gift Voucher is valid for 24 months (2 years). What makes this particularly generous is how the expiry date is calculated. The 24-month period runs from the later of the date that value was last loaded onto the card, or the date that any value was last redeemed. 

In simple terms, this means the expiry clock resets every time you top up the card or make a purchase with it. As long as some activity occurs on the card within each 24-month window, the voucher remains active.

To find the expiry date of your Miller & Carter Gift Voucher, there are a few reliable options. The simplest method is to visit showmybalance.com, the official balance and expiry checker for all Mitchells & Butlers gift cards, of which Miller & Carter is a part of. You can also contact the Mitchells & Butlers Gift Card Guest Services team on 0331 630 5409 for a direct confirmation. For eGift cards, the expiry details are typically included in the original delivery email.

Essential gift voucher rules

Before booking a table, it’s worth familiarising yourself with a few important rules that apply to the Miller & Carter Gift Voucher.

  • The expiry resets with every transaction. Each time you load additional value onto the card or use it, the 24-month validity period resets. This means you can effectively keep the voucher active indefinitely by making even a small purchase within each two-year window.
  • The voucher can be used at any Miller & Carter restaurant in the UK. Plus, it’s also valid at other Mitchells & Butlers venues across the UK, which broadens the range of dining options considerably. You can search for participating venues on the Mitchells & Butlers website.
  • Unlike some gift cards, the Miller & Carter Gift Voucher is designed for in-restaurant use only. It cannot be redeemed through an online ordering platform or for takeaway orders.
  • It cannot be exchanged for cash. The voucher holds no cash value and cannot be refunded, returned, or converted into currency. Any remaining balance stays on the card for future visits.
  • No change is given, but the balance carries forward. If your bill is less than the voucher value, the remaining balance is retained for your next visit. There is no need to spend the full amount in a single transaction.
  • Lost or stolen cards cannot be replaced. Treat the voucher as you would cash. Mitchells & Butlers are not liable for lost, stolen, or damaged cards, so it’s important to keep your voucher safe.
  • Digital vouchers can be presented digitally. If you received a digital voucher, you can show it on your smartphone or print it out. Both formats are accepted at the restaurant.
