What do you say about a supermarket to put it above the rest? It's a Morrison's, it's a chain, so I…read morewon't waste your time with intricate details about the decor or vibe here.. This particular spot is in a great location, never too busy yet a huge car park and very rarely the crazy check-out queues you get at some big places. They do have a huge alcohol section here and prices are always competitive, so if you're after a nice bottle of red or 6 pack, and you can't make it to a specialist - Morrison's will fit the bill nicely for you!

Nice opening hours and a rather swell alcohol section for all your house parties !

By now we all know exactly what to expect from Lidl. This store is located slightly away from the…read morecentre of Bolton and also its retail parks, meaning that it's not mega busy and actually quite quiet during the day. Which is good for me because I find doing the weekly shop a tiny bit stressful. Just like all the other Lidl stores, there are loads of discounts all over the place and more sweets and chocolate than you could ever possibly want to eat. I always find the packing area at these supermarkets quite stressful. There's not enough space for all your items and you generally, to avoid a making a scene, have to throw the items straight back in the trolley without packing them. It's all quiet annoying really. It's like the staff were desperate to get me through the till quickly despite the fact I was the only customer in the store?! Hmph.

Never ever thought of going in Lidl and right on my doorstep, went in with a friend the other day…read more Brill! not only for very very resonable prices on a lot of items, staff are very friendly !! plenty of movement in the store to shop at a relaxing pace, parking you just can not fault at all drive in tons of space , your the best Lidl !!!

Morrisons pride themselves on being a bit different from other supermarkets in that they want to…read moreappear like the high street of some small northern market town. It's a bit of a naff idea, as at the end of the day we all just go to supermarkets to get our weekly shop and then get the hell out. However, when I popped into this Morrisons, I actually quite enjoyed the difference and the various counters around the store. There's a fishmongers, bakery, deli and even cake shop. It made a nice change to the normal supermarket boredom. The thing I like best about Morrisons is its café. It's always dirt cheap and perfect for a cheap, quick fry-up if you're hungover.

A decent Morrisons store, although it might not be as large/modern as Sainsbury's across the way…read moreand does offer fewer facilities (no mobile scanning or optician/pharmacy), this store is okay. The selection in most areas is fine, and I do like the fact they have Amazon Lockers here which is the one big plus compared to Sainsbury's across the way. The central location makes it easy to access from Bolton town centre, as it is a stone's throw away from the train station and nearby retail park, access as a pedestrian can be a little tricky as it means having to walk the whole length of the road outside, it's a shame they haven't made a cut-through which would be easy to do for any reputable construction company. It was a little hard to find staff members on the shop floor, perhaps this is due to ongoing social distancing guidelines due to COVID-19 as I have begun to notice this more often lately, even at other supermarkets. 3* - OK, worth an upgraded rating.

OOPS! Food Clearance is a discount food retailer, they have three locations in the north of…read moreEngland, this location is in Bolton's Central Retail Park, being on Manchester Road it is on the same road as many competitors including ASDA, Iceland and LIDL, the latter of which is a new store, opening in late February 2021. They did have some good deals on milk, this wasn't any specific brand but it did seem cheaper than I've found it anywhere else, by some difference too, it was around 27% cheaper here than many nearby retailers at £0.79 for around 2 litres. The store did have a lot of empty space, it did feel clean but it felt more like a pop-up shop than anything, the doors going into the store felt old, unwelcoming and narrow. The big bulk of items were unbranded, there weren't many things worth shouting about other than the milk offer, the staff seemed disinterested and were just standing around near each other with no acknowledgement of customers. 2* - I'd come in here for milk, or perhaps a look around every now and then, but there are many better similar outlets in the area, if you're looking to go in one or even two shops, I'd give this a miss.

ASDA at Burnden Park is a short walk or bus ride away from Bolton Interchange, it is virtually…read moreopposite the Starbucks on Manchester Road. It has a Cafe area, branded ASDA Kitchen which will hopefully re-open soon based on government guidelines. This is a nice store, while it isn't the largest ASDA store in the area, this store just has a really nice homely and comfortable feel to it, it feels new/modern and a pretty good place to shop, other than the lack of checkouts and cramped checkout area. With it being located close to Burnden Park, which was home to Bolton Wanderers FC for over 100 years, they have tried to add that into the location, as you walk into the store you can see a panoramic of the old stadium which I still prefer to the University of Bolton Stadium, they also had a plaque to the tragic Burnden Park disaster of 1946, with the names of those who died honoured in the store. I was pleased to see some staff members actually on the shop floor to help customers when required; strangely on the day, I visited I didn't find that to be the case at Morrisons and Sainsbury's, who also have large supermarkets nearby. 4* - Pretty good supermarket, easily accessed by a large car park and multiple bus routes, it isn't the best/largest supermarket in Bolton but it has a nice feel to it and I would return to this store.
