Sainsbury’s has said it will shut its remaining 61 in-store cafes as part of a major overhaul - four of which are in Kent. You can see the full list of stores below.

The closures are part of plans by the UK’s largest supermarket group to save £1 billion over three years. It comes almost three years after it shut 200 in-store cafes amid waning demand from shoppers.

The latest round of closures is part of a shake-up which will result in the loss of more than 3,000 jobs.
