Play areas and restaurants will stay shut, but Ikea insists its meatballs will be available in food courts to cook at home.
Since the pandemic and subsequent closure, Ikea’s car parks in Gateshead and Wembley have been turned into drive-through coronavirus testing sites.
Key workers were also allowed to shop in the Swedish Food Markets after being tested.
On reopening to the public, bosses said they aim to limit customer numbers via a staggered entry system and are asking shoppers to “come prepared with ready-made lists and own bags”.
Click & Collect facilities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland also opening in a phased approach and in line with Government guidelines. Stores in Scotland, Wales and the Republic of Ireland will remain closed, the company added.
Extra hand sanitiser and more deep cleans of bags, trolleys, bathrooms, equipment and touchscreens will take place.
Cash will not be accepted, with all payments by card or contactless device only, and customers should avoid travelling to stores just to process refunds – with Ikea pointing out it has a 365-day returns policy.
It follows updated plans from Wetherspoon and Sports Direct, which both released details for reopenings, and chains including McDonald’s, KFC and Greggs start offering services again.

I was therefore alarmed to read an article by the Chief Executive of LibDem run Eastleigh Borough Council in this week’s Local Government Chronicle where he said Eastleigh has made a great many speculative investments, including some outside of the borough's area, and as a result faces painful and challenging problems.
He admitted they face a real risk that commercial tenants will default on their rents.
I wonder will it be the residents of Eastleigh who have to deal with the problem or the LibDem councillors who thought it was OK to take risks with the public's money?
The only saving grace for me is that Valley Park is not in Eastleigh Council's area.
