M&S Rolls Out 2025 Christmas Café Menu as Reviews Praise Toasties, Question Value

Local reviews highlight standout toasties, with concerns over price alongside heavy calorie counts.

Overview

  • The seasonal menu is live across M&S cafés, featuring a Yorkshire Pudding Wrap (£8.50), Pigs Under Blankets Toastie (£7.50), Pigs in Blankets Mac & Cheese (£8.95), Rodney Reindeer hot chocolate or milkshake (£4.25), and a Rodney Reindeer Yule Log (£5).
  • A Manchester Evening News reviewer visited Handforth Dean and Wolstanton, rating the Turkey Toastie and the new Pigs Under Blankets Toastie at 5/5.
  • Portion richness drew nutrition scrutiny, with cited counts including 717 calories for the Pigs Under Blankets Toastie, 326 for the Rodney Reindeer hot chocolate, and 417 for the Yule Log.
  • Bristol Live found the new Cabot Circus café expensive and underwhelming for the quality, noting a £13.35 spend for a turkey toastie, cappuccino and mini Colin the Caterpillar.
  • The Cabot Circus in-store café was packed on opening day and seats around 200 diners, pointing to strong footfall for the flagship site.
