Marks & Spencer to Close Dozens of Cafes in Major £300m Revamp

Marks & Spencer (M&S) is changing how it runs its stores. On October 7, 2025, the company said it will close 11 cafés in smaller food shops. This is part of a £300 million plan to update food halls and make shopping better. The closures affect less than 4% of M&S’s 316 food stores. The space will be used for more popular products. Shoppers now want convenience and high-quality groceries.
