IKEA customers will want to know the store hours during the Easter weekend. Like many stores, IKEA will also have special hours on some Easter days.
IKEA Easter Hours: Know Before You Go
IKEA's outlets in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland will shut their doors on Easter Sunday, March 29.
Shoppers can visit normally on Good Friday and Easter Monday, but it's important to remember that store hours might change.
Before you head out, check the opening times of your local IKEA. Simply use the store locator on their website and input your postcode to find the closest store to you.
Store hours will change during bank holidays, so it's smart to look up each shop's schedule to prevent a pointless trip.
You can use the store finder on their website to find out when your closest supermarket or big store is open. Remember that opening times can differ depending on the location and size of the store.
Don't forget, bus and train schedules change on bank holidays too. Make sure to check their timetables to keep your travel plans smooth.

IKEA Adds Plant-Based Hot Dog to Menu

IKEA has expanded its plant-based food options in the United States by introducing the Plant Dog, a new, affordable choice for those looking to enjoy meat-free alternatives.
At only seventy cents, the Plant Dog joins IKEA's selection of vegetarian options, such as Plant Balls, Veggie Balls, and Veggie Dogs.
After its successful debut in Europe last summer, the Plant Dog is now available to American customers. This move highlights IKEA's commitment to offering more sustainable and vegetarian food choices.
The Plant Dog is designed to taste like a traditional hot dog, a step beyond IKEA's Veggie Dog, which includes kale, lentils, quinoa, onions, and wheat protein. The new recipe features rice protein, apple, and onion, seasoned to perfection for a smoky taste.
Helene von Reis, IKEA of Sweden's food manager, shared her excitement about the launch, emphasizing the care taken in developing a plant-based hot dog that delivers on taste, texture, and the satisfying snap of a classic hot dog.
"We have spent much time in the development process to give the best experience for our customers," von Reis said, affirming the Plant Dog as an excellent substitute for its meat-based counterpart.
IKEA is stepping up its green game by filling half its menu with plant-based options by 2025. Last year's report on how the company is doing shows that adding more plant-based foods is a big part of its plan to reduce pollution. These eco-friendly choices are catching on, too. IKEA's take on vegetarian Swedish meatballs, like veggie and plant balls, now comprise 17% of its frozen meatball sales.
Beginning March 19, IKEA Bistros in the US will start serving the Plant Dog, priced at just seventy cents, offering a wallet-friendly option for customers. This approach to keeping prices low isn't new-the Veggie Dog is now available for sixty-five cents, and the classic hot dog costs seventy-five cents.
