Careful - not all cafes in Asda stores are Asda cafes

If you are going to go to Asda Supermarket to get the free porridge and a hot drink then beware as the majority of cafes are run by Green Street who are independent of Asda.  I went to the Asda at Cribbs Causeway this morning and found this out, which I accepted - but then when I heard them advertise it on the in-store radio I did complain to the duty manager as I felt it was false advertising.  The general public don't make distinctions between who runs the cafe within an Asda store.  Apparently the only Asda Cafe around Bristol is in Longwell Green!

    Agreed it is shoddy practice to advertise something that is not available in that location.
    My local store info page has this
    Service

    Cafe

    Kids Eat Free Monday-Friday after 3pm when an adult spends just £4, and Pensioners get 10% off on a Wednesday.

    With this at the bottom

    Not available at this store
    Shouldn't be too difficult to omit that box should it ?
    The page also advertises pharmacy, travel money and optician with the "Not available at this store" disclaimer
