This offer is available all year round, every day of the week to any child under the age of 16. The Pick ‘n’ Mix meal deal option is ideal for kids during the summer, which includes a sandwich or toastie, snack and drink for just £3.50. The meal deal features a cheese toastie or sandwiches filled with kids’ favourites such as ham or cheese that can be paired with a wide range of snack and drink choices, such as Hula Hoops, Babybels, jelly, fruit bags, flavoured milk, Robinsons Fruit Shoot or Cawston Press Juice. Children also have a variety of hot meal options to choose from, including Chicken Nuggets, Chips and Beans, Bangers and Mash or the new Tomato and Cheese Beans Nachos – which would usually be £3.50 each. Adults can pick from mouth-watering mains including the classic Chunky Steak Pie served with a creamy mash for £6.75, peas and gravy or a lighter option like the Hot Beef Brisket Sandwich for £4.50. Morrisons child-friendly checkouts and child-sized trollies will also be available during half-term, providing entertainment for kids as they join their parents for the weekly food shops.
