Tesco is extending its Kids Eat Free scheme to include weekends for the first time this summer, allowing thousands more families to enjoy free meals for their children.
The Café and The Coffee Shops scheme will run in more than 330 participating Tesco stores until September 1, seven days a week.
The Café and The Coffee Shop in Tesco will be offering one free Kids Hot Meal Deal, Kids Breakfast or Kids Pick ‘n’ Mix deal with any full price adult purchase when they scan their Tesco Clubcard.
The adult purchase could be something as small as an apple costing just 65 pence.
With no limit to the number of Kid’s meals you can redeem, families of all sizes can benefit too.
Popular menu items include breakfast options such as Egg & Soldiers, Beans & Soldiers and Pancakes. Hot main meals include choices such as Omega 3 Fish Fingers, Baked Chicken Strips and Pork Sausages.
The Kids Pick ‘n’ Mix includes a sandwich, a drink, two snacks and a piece of fresh fruit, so there’s something healthy and satisfying to feed hungry children from breakfast until dinner.
This summer, Tesco is also cutting the full prices of children’s meals in The Café and The Coffee Shop, supported by the UK Government’s decision to slash VAT across children's meals, activities, and days out as part of their Great British Summer Savings.
Tesco is also bringing back Free Fruit for Kids for the summer.
Up to August 30, children will be able to pick up free apples at checkouts in more than 800 large Tesco stores and 77 of its large Express stores.
Click & Collect customers will also be given free apples for their children at selected stores.
Claire De Silva, Head of Communities at Tesco, said: “We know that household budgets can be really stretched, especially over the long summer holiday, so offering free meals to children during this time is just one of the ways we can support families.”
