Supermarket cafés in Aberystwyth and Cardigan will be offering free children’s meals throughout the school summer holidays, the company has announced.

Tesco Café in the supermarket’s large branch on Park Avenue in Aberystwyth and on Aberystwyth Road in Cardigan will be offering free meals for kids when an adult spends £3.50 throughout the holidays – from yesterday to Wednesday, 1 September.

The free offer for kids covers the Pick ’n’ Mix meal deal, usually £2.75, which includes a sandwich, soft drink, piece of fruit and two snacks, or a kids’ hot meal, usually £2.85.

There are also kids breakfast options available in the deal.

Jo Barnes, head of marketing and food development at Tesco Café, said: “The summer holidays are the perfect opportunity for some quality family time and a little treat.

“Families can enjoy a premium quality breakfast, lunch or dinner together whilst shopping at Tesco, all for great value as kids eat free when an adult spends just £3.50.

“We’ve worked really hard to ensure we’re offering balanced and healthy options for our little diners.

“We encourage well balanced and healthier kids meal options by adding a vegetable side with every hot meal, a piece of fruit with every cold meal and ensuring all our kids snacks are under 100 calories.

“We strongly believe that eating out shouldn’t have to cost families a lot of money, especially in the expensive summer holidays, and we wanted to provide some unbeatable offers for families.

“We’re really looking forward to welcoming our customers into the café this summer.”
