If you like a sit-down during your supermarket shop, then close your eyes now.

Sainsbury's has announced it's closing down 200 of its in-store cafes, affecting as many as 2,000 jobs.

The supermarket said it will be opening 30 new food halls – called The Restaurant Hub – after a successful trial in a Birmingham store. It's in partnership with Boparan Restaurant Group, which owns Gourmet Burger Kitchen and Caffe Carluccio's.

Sainsbury's also plans to open 30 new Starbucks coffee shops inside stores.

A statement from the Chief Executive read: 'As we go through this period of transition, we have taken the difficult decision to close 200 of our cafes next month.

'We have spoken to all colleagues affected by these changes today and are absolutely committed to supporting them in any way we can during this uncertain time.

'Of course, we understand this is very unsettling for our colleagues, but we must keep adapting our business to make sure we are offering customers the best possible food and drink at affordable prices.'

So, which Sainsbury's cafes are staying – and which will be gone in the coming weeks?

Here's what you need to know.

What does £450 a month get you up north? Quite a bit more than you'd manage in London, as you might imagine. For today's What I Rent, we're up in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, with Louisa, a 23-year-old auxiliary nurse for the NHS, and her partner Ebs, a chef. They moved to the area two years ago from Wakefield, and now share a two-bedroom house - along with their cats. We chatted with Louisa about what the couple rent (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

Lousia and her partner pay £450 a month between two of them, so £225 each. Bills come to around £250 a month. They live with their many cats - this lovely one is Juno (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

The couple's home is in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. 'We love the area, it's super friendly and has a great homely feel to it. It seems to be quite an up and coming area too, they have recently renovated the town centre and built a huge shopping and leisure complex' (Picture: Simon Ashton)

After finding their house on Facebook Market place, Lousia and Ebs instantly put their own stamp on it. 'Lots of art, lots of neon, lots of bold prints and wallpaper. Our landlord has been really great about letting us decorate however we want, and she was really clear when we moved in that even though she owns the house, it's very much our home' (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

The landlord has been happy to let the couple have free rein. 'It's not been difficult to decorate at all. We are really lucky to have free rein with our rented space. In our old place we got charged for putting a pin in the wall' (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

Have they got enough space? 'For our family the size it is right now, yes. We will be looking into having children eventually, and when we do we will need to upsize' (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

The outside area is a real bonus. They've even got a BBQ for entertaining friends in the summer (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

Can you tell they're animal lovers? They have plenty of quirky pet-themed art around their home, including over the cooker (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

They've used up all the space in their house. Here's where the bikes and cats live off the side of the kitchen (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

The creative couple haven turned the second bedroom into a dedicated music room. They've even squeezed in some exercise equipment (Picture: Simon Ashton)

Their creativity doesn't stop at music. There's lots of lovely wall art like this underwater-inspired piece (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

There have been a few setbacks, like damp in the bedroom. The landlord has been very prompt to sort these out, and it hasn't affected their stunning decor (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

Would they consider buying their own home? 'When we next move we hope we can buy a house. Renting is great and often a really flexible option but we do sometimes wish we had the stability of being home owners. We'd also like to have the option of spending larger amounts of money on renovations that we haven't wanted to spend here as the house doesn't belong to us' (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

They've made every part of the house their own. So it's no surprise that there is a cat sculpture in this animal-loving pair's back garden (Picture: (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)

Here's the bathroom. We love the fake ivy and handy storage caddy (Picture: Simon Ashton/Metro.co.uk)
