Kids Eat Free or For Less this Summer Holidays
Say hello to the summer holidays! While the summer holidays allow families to enjoy quality time together on days out and holiday activities, the school break can create additional pressure for parents.
Not only do you need a bank of fun activities and trips to keep your little ones entertained, but you also need to factor in time off work or childcare, and the obvious financial cost. Costs that in a time of widespread financial struggle are hard to manage.
To give you a helping hand, we’ve pulled together a list of cafes and restaurants offering free (or considerably discounted) meals for kids over the school holidays, making days out that little bit less costly!
It is worth noting that not all of these options are 100% free with the purchase of a full adult meal necessary.
ASDA
Extending their popular £1 Kids Cafe deal, kids can eat for just £1 all day at any ASDA cafe with no adult spending necessary! Offering a nutritionally balanced menu (including a vegan option), ASDA is a great way to keep your children and your wallet happy!
Sainsbury's
Another supermarket cafe offering is Sainsbury's where kids can eat for £1 in their Cafes after 11:30 am with an adult meal. This is a great way to make the supermarket trip a bit more exciting with the promise of a tasty meal afterwards!
