My family has been shopping at Rai Supermarket for decades. And the reason for this is their vast…read morevariety of Asian food and groceries. They're always busy, which is testament to the wide selection of products they have and offers they tend to put on. The fruit and vegetables are displayed outside where you're free to bag as much as you like and ask a staff member to keep it near the tills while you browse through the aisles inside. The staff members are very polite and offer to drop your shopping to your car, which is very helpful because parking in the area is hectic so you could be quite a walk away. Although their fruit and vegetables are competitively priced, I feel the rest of their items can be overpriced, considering the number of supermarkets you have on this stretch of the Stratford Road. They could do a better job of maintaining the shop floor and exterior considering they have many workers.

This is a large Morrisons store, located on Hagley Road in Edgbaston Village, a short ride on the…read moreWest Midlands Metro tram from Birmingham city centre. The store seems much more modern than I'm used to from Morrisons. The store is visually pleasant. As you enter the store, you'll be greeted by their Market Kitchen area where food counters are available offering a rotational daily selection of hot dishes, pizza and a couple of other options alongside the regular Morrisons Cafe offering. The facilities inside the store are good and also include Amazon Lockers. The selection in terms of groceries was reasonable. Prices were competitive but did seem fairly expensive for some items including Cravendale Milk, even out pricing some convenience stores in Birmingham city centre. The staff seemed friendly enough; there was a lack of them on the shop floor however to assist customers. 4* - An impressive Morrisons with an overall store look/feel that I hope they roll out across more of their supermarkets nationwide.

As you may have seen from previous reviews, I am a bit of a bargain hunter. I like to eat well (by…read morehaving a very mixed diet) and save as much money as possible on the boring stuff (like the food shop). This makes me a really big fan of Aldi. I remember the stigma that was attached to discount supermarkets when I was younger and the shame of having "non branded" crisps in your lunchbox at school, well, I certainly feel that a lot has changed and these stores are now a viable option to get great quality, cheaper food (and drink) options. This branch is actually my favourite. I know, it's weird having a favourite branch of Aldi, but when we can't get to market on a weekend we have a plethora of Aldi's and Lidl's around us to choose from. This one (just by Cannon Hill park) is always tidy, clean and tends to have the items we need in stock (rather than other branches which seem to run out of things). I always find it really funny to see how many Mercedes, Jag's and high end cars are parked in the car park of this branch. Clearly the discount supermarket is no longer a taboo! As well as the usual choice of fruit, veg and meat you will find lots of speciality items here. With everything from award winning wines and champagnes to a great selection of baking paraphernalia and season items in stock, if you're anything like me you'll usually spend more than you bargained for! Again, this is my favourite branch of Aldi in Birmingham. If you are looking for a way to cut down the cost of the weekly shop or just get a picnic in before visiting Cannon Hill, you could do much worse than popping in and seeing what these guys have in stock.

Oh Aldi, you always make me spend more money than I intend to. Why must you insist on having such…read moredelectable goodies poking their noses over the edges of the shelves which somehow always find their way into my trolley? But in all seriousness Aldi really has managed to shake off the stigma it once had by continuing to stock good quality items at slightly lower prices than the big supermarkets. Especially with the 'super 6' offers and weekly offers on meat that often beat the big supermarkets measly 20p off by a country mile. Aldi is great for the vast majority of things but it's quite rare that we can do an entire weekly shop there, unfortunately some items we can only get at our local supermarket that shall remain nameless. That being said their selection of beers is great (and lets face it, it's what we're all here for!), with several ales, weissbier, pilsner and a few other bits and pieces as well all coming in at £1.25 or less per bottle - bargain! Just make sure you take some carrier bags to reuse, they will charge you!

NEVER EVER GOING THERE AGAIN. AVOID THESE FAKESTERS. MEDINA SUPERSTORE, MAS BAZAR and even BANGLa STATION with its high prices is better than Paks supermarket lozells road, atleast in Bangl station you gonna get fresh produce at the weight it's supposed to be at even if they charge extra but at PaKsSupermarket Lozells not only they charge you but the hive you produce which is gone bad and even from there they will steal a few pieces out. STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY. BTW have you guys seen the TikTok videos by PaKs lozells road, all comments are turned off. we wonder why. must be a reason. what have you got to hide. you don't want the word getting around that you guys are leeching off the local community. you disgraceful people. Pak supermarket Alum rock and Cov Road is really good btw. recommend it to all.

Some are more complete, others less so. This is one of the most complete I've seen there. I think is more of a small supermarket than a convenience store, really. They have a wide variety of products, like snacks, drinks, candy, all the usual things you expect from a convenience store. The seller is pretty friendly too. Nothing different and nothing that I would tell you that you absolutely you have to go there but it's good enough for the odd thing you might need to pick up if you are in the area.

It was fairly close to my house which did affect my choice, but there were closer shops I passed by because this one suited my needs better, due to a combination of good selection, low prices and friendly service. I bought a lot of my vegetables there, particularly enjoying the chillis which are priced low to enough to encourage a spicyness in my home cooking that might be best described as "experimental". There's also good deals to be had on products such as rice, if you're prepared to buy in bulk. In conclusion, maybe not the biggest or best business of it's kind in the area, but it's a damn fine competitor none the less.

I didn't feel comfortable buying the fruit and vegetables as they are left in a box on the table outside, which probably give it easy access for flies. However they sell a good range of products for the Asian cuisine and have a halal butchers at the back but it would help if the the staff spoke good English!! Bottom line is I probably wouldn't buy anything that was kept outside, from here but I wouldn't mind buying the packaged goods because it's good quality and good value for money.

As a vegan that cooks most meals from fresh, I find it useful that they have such a wide variety of ingredients, rather than pre-pack meals. I try to ignore the meat counter at the back, as it freaks me out, but if you happen to be Muslim, I guess it's handy as it's Halal meat. The main thing about this place is the people that work there. They are so friendly, polite and always willing to help. They also make you feel welcome, which certainly doesn't happen in the Co-Op opposite! You might not be able to find everything you need in there, but for bits and pieces and if you enjoy cooking and Asian cuisine, then this is the place for you. Prices are pretty reasonable too!

Sainsbury's at Martineau Square is probably the largest supermarket style store in Birmingham city…read morecentre, at least in the Sainsbury's brand anyway but it is far from the best. The store was really understaffed when I came in, it felt like they were ready to shut in the middle of the day with no manned tills or counters, the store was even really dark to get around (perhaps a power outage in part of the store), yet there was no staff members apologising or offering assistance. Other reviews suggest it isn't even a lighting issue and it has been going on for weeks and months, which surely makes no sense: as someone who visits Sainsbury's stores across England and Wales, I've not seen anything like it. I couldn't get any of the items I came in for which strangely were on sale in a smaller Sainsbury's store on Colmore Row, it is a large supermarket but I just wasn't impressed with the selection. The ramped enterance into the store remains dangerous and is an accident waiting to happen as it involves a sharp and narrow corner blocked by a wall, I really don't know how health and safety approved it as it is too narrow to have two lanes and all it takes is to people coming up at the same time (and then unable to go back) and BANG. The store really does need to review their staffing levels, ramped enterance and lighting as a matter of urgency.

For £2.95 you can have yourself a medium salad bowl packed full of bean, beetroot, red pepper, chickpea and other salads which I have to say tastes great! Big shouts to the pea and mint salad which gives the whole bowl freshness and a whole load of extra flavour....I strongly recommend going in on that scoop for a lunchtime win! I know you are thinking.....supermarket salad bowl.....it's going to be rubbish.....but this one shames other supermarkets. I need to say that compared to Morrisons dried out salads this is on another level. If you want a cheap lunch on the move and want to be healthy in a savage world of burger temptation.....give this a go.
