Tesco, the UK’s largest supermarket chain, is launching a special initiative this weekend with the introduction of limited edition Park & Pause bays across ten of its stores. Beginning Saturday, April 11, customers who use these designated parking spaces will receive a complimentary Tesco Finest hot drink and a biscuit, served directly to their car windows.
The Park & Pause bays will be available from 8am to 5pm, supported by Tesco ambassadors who will personally hand-deliver the refreshments. This campaign aims to enhance customer convenience and aligns with Tesco’s new “Need anything from Tesco?” service initiative.
The participating Tesco locations span various regions including the West Midlands, Wales, Scotland, and England. Stores featuring the Park & Pause bays are:

Alongside this, Tesco is also running a half-price toy sale starting simultaneously. The promotion includes over 100 toys from popular brands such as Disney, Star Wars, Pokémon, Barbie, Meccano, and X-Shots. Selected with the help of toy experts from The Entertainer, the sale offers a wide variety of options suitable for children of all ages—from dolls and vehicles to arts and crafts and pre-school toys.
Phoebe Howlett-Green, Tesco Lead Partnership Manager, highlighted the timing of the toy sale, saying, “With the Easter holidays approaching, parents will find this half-price toy sale helpful in keeping their children entertained. It features some of the best-loved toy brands catering to kids of all ages.”
This dual initiative by Tesco – offering both convenience through Park & Pause bays and savings via the toy sale – is designed to support families during a busy season, making shopping easier and more enjoyable.
