Blue Light Card holders can grab Fish & Chips, Sausage & Mash and Morrisons' Big Breakfast for 10 per cent less, according to a press release by the chain.
Morrisons says it's the only major supermarket to roll out this change exclusively for Blue Light customers, pointing out that other supermarkets typically offer discounts on gift card purchases.
Eligible customers just need to show a valid Blue Light Card at the cafe till to get the discount.
The offer kicks off on August 11 and runs alongside Morrisons' Kids Eat Free deal.

The Blue Light Card scheme, launched in 2008, is designed to reward "Blue Light" and public sector workers with exclusive discounts from hundreds of retailers, including Apple, Asda and Domino's.
Cardholders can save an average of over £800 a year, with discounts available on groceries, clothes, holidays, insurance, cars and thousands of restaurants, shops and venues - totalling around 15,000 deals.
The scheme is typically open to NHS staff, emergency services, social care workers and armed forces personnel.
Last year, it was extended to include primary and secondary school teachers, along with staff at Sixth Form colleges and Special Schools.
When the extension was announced, the website and app crashed due to "unprecedented demand" on the system.
If you're eligible, you can get a free digital Blue Light Card or pay £4.99 for a physical one that lasts two years.
You can use the digital card by downloading the Blue Light Card app via Google Play or the App Store.
Brands participating in the Blue Light Card scheme include:
Apple
Hotpoint
JD Sports
Toby Carvery
New Look
Odeon
Ray Ban
Abercrombie & Fitch

Blue Light Card holders can also save big on holidays with discounts from Jet2, EasyJet and Expedia.
