The supermarket cafe at the Tesco Extra on Huddersfield Road has moved to be cashless for customers, in a move which Tesco says is to improve customers' experiences.

The Huddersfield Road cafe is one of dozens of Tesco cafes across the country to have become cashless recently, leaving some customers surprised.

The supermarket giant has said that it is always looking to improve the facilities at its cafes and the decision to make the Huddersfield Road cafe cashless is part of ongoing investment into improving the experiences of customers.

Tesco added that members of staff will always be present to help customers with the payment process should they need assistance.

The change is only being made at the Tesco cafe on Huddersfield Road, while Tesco cafes at stores on Featherstall Road North in Chadderton and on Ashton Road in Failsworth will still accept cash.
