‘We need to visit’ scream shoppers as 90s cartoon to take over TWO Scots Primark cafes
PRIMARK has done it again – giving shoppers a nostalgic boost with its new cafe theme.
The high street giant has previously transformed its eating spots into Shrek, Hello Kitty, Spongebob SquarePants and The Grinch-inspired delights.
And the budget retailer is now bringing in the New Year with a 90s cartoon theme for 2025.
The Simpsons cafe will launch at two Scottish Primark stores later this week.
The Braehead branch will welcome it on Friday, January 10, while Primark’s Edinburgh store will get a Springfield makeover on Saturday.
Elsewhere in the UK, The Simpsons cafe can be currently found in Cardiff, Manchester and Birmingham – with plans for Belfast too.
And cafe organisers, The Immersive Cafe, have promised that “Homer and his friends will be in Primark cafes for quite some time”.
There is no need to prebook the cafe, and you can just show up on the day.
Some of the menu highlights include butter bacon waffles for £6.95 and a loaded toastie complete with sliced beef, cheese, pink pickled onions and rocket, also £6.95.
And it wouldn’t be a Homer-worthy menu if there were no doughnuts up for grabs too.
Shoppers can snap up caramel brownie doughnuts or a jammy dodger version.
There’s also a strawberry doughnut milkshake topped with white chocolate drizzle, whipped cream, sprinkles and a pink doughnut for £5.95.
Unsurprisingly, fans of the hit 90s cartoon are already desperate to visit the pop up cafe as one gushed: “Okay I think this might be favourite one yet.”
“Omg looks amazing”, wrote a second.
A third chimed in: “AMAZING! nothing has ever excited me more than this.”
A fourth added: “Definitely need to visit!!”
Meanwhile, a fifth said: “Wow this looks soooo good I’ll be so going.”

Everton find themselves embroiled in yet another relegation battle, hovering just two places and one point above the relegation zone.
The Toffees have managed just three league wins all season against Ipswich Town, Crystal Palace and Wolves with just 15 goals scored in 19 matches.
With wins, goals and creativity in desperately short supply, Dyche is under pressure to turn things around – even more so following the takeover by the Friedkin Group.
Reports this week claim the Friedkin Group are “reviewing” his work, with Dyche himself agreeing that “it should be”.
“At the end of the day, if you are a business of this size, succession planning surely should be part of their diligence, I have no problem with that,” Dyche said.
“It should be ongoing at any football club and a part of any ‘normal’ business outside football. I never really concern myself with that – but have got to win games.”
The Friedkin Group had previously given their backing to Dyche with the former Burnley manager’s contract set to expire at the end of the current campaign.
But given Everton have the division’s lowest expected goals (xG) rate and the lowest goals per game rate of 0.79 (the lowest number for the team in the past 13 seasons) a change could be in the offing.

But who could succeed him on Merseyside?
talkSPORT BET have installed Jose Mourinho as the frontrunner at odds-on 8/11 if Dyche receives his marching orders.
Mourinho, who has previously managed Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham in the Premier League, is currently in Turkey with Fenerbahce.
The Portuguese, 61, guided Friedkin Group-owned Roma to their first major European trophy in the inaugural Europa Conference League final before being relieved of his duties after two-and-a-half years.
Former Everton boss David Moyes is next in the betting markets at 4/1.
The Scot was in charge of Everton for 11 years and is currently without a job after leaving West Ham United at the end of last season.
Further back is West Ham-linked Graham Potter at 6/1, Edin Terzic and Brentford’s Thomas Frank share a price of 12/1 with Steve Cooper available at 16/1.

‘If you backed him, you’ll win’ – The Cheltenham Festival ante-post horses bookies fear the most
TERRIFIED bookies are counting the cost of Cheltenham Festival – with the layers certain one horse has already won.
Sir Gino looked an absolute machine when disposing of the awesome Ballyburn with ease at Kempton on Boxing Day.
And, having been backed at as big as 8-1 for the Arkle, punters who took the price look like they’re onto a big value winner.

Bet Victor‘s Sam Boswell said: “It feels like his backers are likely to collect come the Tuesday of the Festival.”
The superstar novice chaser – who won the Fighting Fifth Hurdle when stepping in for stablemate Constitution Hill – is one of their five biggest losers in the book.
He has been hammered into as short as 8-11 for the Arkle – while his stablemate is another giving bookies sleepless nights.
The Christmas Hurdle was built up as the big showdown behind former Champion Hurdle king Constitution Hill and pretender to the throne, Lossiemouth.
But Willie Mullins’ mare failed to fire and Constitution Hill showed he can still mix it in the top flight with an easy win.
Some have fired warning shots over the quality of the win – and Templegate has a 33-1 Champion Hurdle pick he fancies – but there is no denying Constitution Hill has been supported well for the day one feature.
He was as big as 9-2 in November after his Newbury gallop but is now 4-6.
Elsewhere, it’s three Willie Mullins horses the bookies are desperate to get beat.
Summing up the state of their ante-post liabilities, Boswell said: “The most significant loser in our book is Constitution Hill.
“We laid Nicky Henderson’s stable star at a price as big as 9-2 back in November, following the publicised gallop at Newbury.
“He’s now odds on at 4-6 having returned to his best in the Christmas Hurdle at Kempton on Boxing Day.
“We’ll be hopeful that Brighterdaysahead at 4-1, who was so impressive over Christmas, also opts for the Champion Hurdle and that we can get him beat in March.
“It’s another Nicky Henderson horse that has us running for cover in the Arkle.
“We saw plenty of conflicting ideas about where Sir Gino would end up but those who backed him for the two-mile novice chase at as big as 8/1 are very much on the right side of a good ante-post bet.
“He’s now 8-11 having blown away a disappointing Ballyburn at Kempton in the Wayward Lad, producing one of the most impressive chase debuts of recent times in the process.
“It feels like his backers are likely to collect come the Tuesday of the Festival.
“The Seven Barrows pair winning would be a nasty start to the festival for us.
“We are currently offering four places each-way on the Supreme, Turners and Albert Bartlett, and as a result we have seen several each-way liabilities.
“It’s another familiar trainer whose horses are giving our traders sleepless nights, with the worst being Willie Mullins-trained Kaid d’Authie.
“A faller on stable debut, he improved when going up in trip at Leopardstown over Christmas, impressing many.
“As a result, he’s 8-1 from 33-1 for the Supreme as it is anticipated he will drop back to two miles.
“Another Closutton inmate that won at Leopardstown and that we are keen to keep onside moving forward is Kopek Des Bordes, who is 12-1 from 25-1 for the Turners.
“Whilst we didn’t see much of his win in the fog, what the punters did manage to see clearly caught the eye.
“The final horse of a Mullins trio that could prove costly for us is Willy De Houelle in the Triumph market.
“This horse was the talk of the town long before his debut in December for the top trainer in Ireland, but he’s yet to live up to the hype and seems poised to be one that us bookmakers have ended up the right side of for once!”

Luke Littler set to get brand new introduction as he makes return to darts at Bahrain Masters
LUKE LITTLER will be introduced as World Darts Champion for the first time at the Bahrain Masters next week.
The teen sensation is the headline act for the opening World Series tournament on January 16/17.
The Nuke returns to the stage where he hit an opening leg nine-darter before taking victory and lifting the unique Palm Trophy.
Littler, 17, has already admitted he won’t throw a dart after the double 16 to win the world title at the Ally Pally until arriving in Bahrain.
On practising, he said: “I don’t want to really. Maybe. I think there will be quite a few people on the Target darts counter now. l just want to chill out.”
On when he will pick up a dart again, he added: “Probably Bahrain.”
Littler is joined in this year’s Bahrain Darts Masters by seven other top PDC stars – led by World No1 Luke Humphries, who won the World Cup of Darts, World Matchplay and Players Championship Finals in 2024.
World Championship semi-finalists Stephen Bunting and Chris Dobey will make their first visits to Bahrain to compete in the event, following their inclusion in the 2025 Premier League.
Former World Champions Rob Cross and Gerwyn Price also return for the third edition of the Bahrain Darts Masters, alongside 2023 World Matchplay winner Nathan Aspinall.
Two-time World Champion Peter Wright completes the eight-player PDC line-up, with Dutch superstar Michael van Gerwen the only major name missing out on the event due to family commitments.
