Although the store is relatively small it stocks all the essentials needed for living at very cheap prices. The newly initiated 'Sainsbury's basics' line is ideal for penny pinching students such as myself. The staff are always friendly and although it can get quite busy at peak times (such as the evening) they always have a smile. All in all an excellent supermarket in an ideal location.

I was so surprised to receive a notice of exceeding parking time and that I needed to pay a fine £40 or £70 if I delayed beyond 14days, the letter was dated 9th May, I received it today 16th May.   I have paid the £40 but I am deeply upset by this charge when all I was doing was shopping in your store. I think bona-fide shoppers should be exempt being charged penalty charges, otherwise all you are doing is curtailing  some one's shopping activities and considering the store has clothing and household goods as well as groceries shopping can take some time. This experience has put me off Tesco stores, you come across as so friendly but this impersonal approach using Horizon is very much at odds with the general friendly Tesco persona. Surely with Clubcard data it is possible to know whether someone is a genuine shopper and should be allowed free shopping time after all, more time spent in store could be more sales.

This Tesco is definitely a Tesco EXTRA-it's by far the largest Tesco I've seen! It takes 5 mins to…read morewalk the car park to get to the front door! Before you enter there is a Timpsons and a Giraffe. Internally, the atmosphere is bright, clean, shiny and noisy from all the shoppers bustling around. There has been efforts to make the architecture look aesthetically pleasing from the outside but internally, aside from some high windows at the entrance, you feel like you are in a giant warehouse. As you enter, you are immediately marketed the deals of the day, to the left is a customer service desk with ladies who are away chatting to each other. Beyond the desk is another entrance to the restaurant, Giraffe. Deeper into the store is the food-to-go section which is actually pretty impressive with the salad bar, help-yourself-curry and hot sandwiches, a Costa coffe dispenser and a few self-scans (I've never seen this set up in any other store).To the right of the entrance is a serious-looking but friendly security gaurd, a postbox and a cool machine that prints off your vouchers. The general layout of the store is pretty much the same as other Tesco stores but each section is like it's own store! The clothing section has a massive range and once you turn 90 degrees to the right, you are waking down the middle of the store with food on the right (in order of fesh, refrigerated, frozen, cupboard, then drinks) and general merchandise followed by homeware, heath and beauty and home cleaning on the left as you progress deeper into the store. Beyond these ailses there's an opticians, a pharmacy and other services that I can't remember.... Beyond the food aisles on the right, you are met with lots of checkouts, self-checkouts and self-scan guns closer to the exit. Once you have finished your shopping, within the store, you can grab a bite at Subway, a card from Card Factory, get your haircut or relax with a cup of tea at the cafe. Overall, the checkout and customer service staff are not all that friendly or helpful but they do get the job done and aside from the sheer size (hence more stock and variety especially in terms of World Food sections), this Tesco is just the same as all the others. I am however told that during Christmas trading hours, the staff go around on roller blades to get around faster. Now, that's something to go see.

I was used to markets being places with cheap tat and someone with a thick Black Country accent yelling from a van about sausages, and it's just definitely not like that here.
