Sainsbury's closes 61 cafes across UK in 2025 - full list | UK | News

A supermarket giant has closed its 61 remaining cafes in 2025 as part of a huge shake-up. Rising prices and decreasing footfall have pushed businesses across the country into closures – impacting on town centres and out of town supermarkets alike.

Sainsbury’s made the announcement in January, with all the cafes shutting on April 11. The supermarket previously said the decision to close them was taken due to lower footfall and a “challenging cost environment”.

A spokesperson from Sainsbury’s said in April: “In January, we shared the difficult decision that our remaining Sainsbury’s cafes would be closing, and this will take place on April 11. We are sorry for any disappointment this may cause. Our stores continue to support the customers and communities they serve in a range of ways, including through fundraising, volunteering and donations to good causes. We’re exploring future opportunities for the space and will keep our colleagues and customers updated.”

Sainsbury’s chief executive, Simon Roberts, previously said the retailer was facing a “challenging cost environment”. He explained: “The decisions we are announcing today are essential to ensure we continue to drive forward our momentum. But, they have also meant some difficult choices impacting our dedicated colleagues in a number of parts of our business. We’ll be doing everything we can to support anyone impacted by today’s announcements.”

The latest cuts come after Sainsbury’s confirmed that 3,000 jobs would be axed from its headquarters earlier this year. The supermarket said the jobs were cut in a bid to streamline the business.

Sainsbury’s is also axing all remaining patisserie, bakery, rotisserie and pizza counters in its larger branches. Some items from these sections will be moved to other areas of the supermarket.

On April 12, 2021, a Knoxville police officer shot and killed an African American male student in a bathroom at Austin-East High School. The incident caused social unrest, and community members began demanding transparency about the shooting, including the release of the officer’s body camera video. On the evening of April 19, 2021, the Defendant and a group of protestors entered the Knoxville City-County Building during a Knox County Commission meeting. The Defendant activated the siren on a bullhorn and spoke through the bullhorn to demand release of the video. Uniformed police officers quickly escorted her and six other individuals out of the building and arrested them for disrupting the meeting. The court upheld defendants’ conviction for “disrupting a lawful meeting,” defined as “with the intent to prevent [a] gathering, … substantially obstruct[ing] or interfere[ing] with the meeting, procession, or gathering by physical action or verbal utterance.” Taken in the light most favorable to the State, the evidence shows that the Defendant posted on Facebook the day before the meeting and the day of the meeting that the protestors were going to “shut down” the meeting. During the meeting, the Defendant used a bullhorn to activate a siren for approximately twenty seconds. Witnesses at trial described the siren as “loud,” “high-pitched,” and “alarming.” Commissioner Jay called for “Officers,” and the Defendant stated through the bullhorn, “Knox County Commission, your meeting is over.” Commissioner Jay tried to bring the meeting back into order by banging his gavel, but the Defendant continued speaking through the bullhorn. Even when officers grabbed her and began escorting her out of the Large Assembly Room, she continued to disrupt the meeting by yelling for the officers to take their hands off her and by repeatedly calling them “murderers.” Commissioner Jay called a ten-minute recess during the incident, telling the jury that it was “virtually impossible” to continue the meeting during the Defendant’s disruption. The Defendant herself testified that the purpose of attending the meeting was to disrupt the Commission’s agenda and to force the Commission to prioritize its discussion on the school shooting. Although the duration of the disruption was about ninety seconds, the jury was able to view multiple videos of the incident and concluded that the Defendant substantially obstructed or interfered with the meeting. The evidence is sufficient to support the Defendant’s conviction. Defendant also claimed the statute was “unconstitutionally vague as applied to her because the statute does not state that it includes government meetings,” but the appellate court concluded that she had waived the argument by not raising it adequately below. Sean F. McDermott, Molly T. Martin, and Franklin Ammons, Assistant District Attorneys General, represent the state.
