There was a big queue backing up on the day I visited but they quickly manned another checkout and cleared it fairly quickly. No parking that I could see but I may be wrong about that as I'm not local so they may have a secret car park that I didn't spot! :-) All in all a handy local co-op if you live or are holidaying in or around Seahouses.

Almost by default, Irvine's is my newsagent of choice on the Royal Mile, as on principle I refuse…read moreto put up with old misery guts that works in The Scottish Grocer just a few doors down. It's exactly as you'd expect from a newsagent, stocking papers, mags, sweets, drinks and fags. There's also a few Scottish bits and bobs for sale, but it doesn't appear to be the main focus. It's a very small shop, so there's not a huge amount of choice, but the friendly atmosphere keeps their noses in front of the rest.

As Gavin has already mentioned, Irvine's isn't the largest newsagents around but boy to they know…read morehow to make the most of the size and it's full to bursting with goodies. I popped in here the other day for a magazine to read on the train and some chewing gum and I also noticed that this place has a really nice friendly atmosphere. As far as newsagents goes, this one is pretty darn good!

After mailing some postcards and breakfast at The Painted Rooster on the morning of Friday 19 July…read more2019, I was on my way on foot to Holyrood Park to do some hiking. I had packed some food and decided that if I passed a small store on the way I would stop and see if they had any last food item(s) I wanted for a morning of exploring. Nearing St John's Episcopal Church, I was seeing the stores thin out and spotted Tesco Express. I slipped into the store and quickly looked through the offerings. I went with a small snack/candy item. There was a short line, which while standing in I noticed a small case of Krispy Kreme donuts. I did not get one of those, but it was a reminder I was going back to the United State of America the following day. Oddly, or goodly depending on one's perspective, it made me want to stay in Scotland more than go back to America.

Spar may be one of the smaller supermarkets of St Andrews, and is hidden away more than the others,…read morebut it has its benefits. Being located close to the health centre and closest to the Lamond Drive area of town, Spar has a very good selection of goods for good prices, and best of all, it rarely has queues. Service is good and quick. Unfortunately its selection cannot meet that of nearby Morrisons, and its prices not that of nearby Aldi, but for a small all-round supermarket, Spar is just right!

(What world is this that I am able to make unconscious assumptions about the kind of Tesco I'm in? Ugh.) Anyway. It's bigger and better-stocked. That's why I thought it was a Metro. It's also pretty tidy most of the time and last time I went in, there was a nice young man from Stoats giving away free samples, which was fun. The tills are fairly well laid-out... I don't really know what else there is to say. It's a Tesco, and just a Tesco, and it's got nothing particularly out of the ordinary to recommend it, but it's juuuuuust fine.

Get your bits and bobs for the festivals (Recommended)…read more Pros: This store / information office is a great one stop shop for finding your feet at the festival. They have all the details on the plethora of shows and performances going on and the staff are very friendly and helpful - they seem to be genuinely interested in helping you make the most out of the festival. Cons: The range of goods for sale is limited - they could expand the merchandise quite a bit. It is a little out of the way too but this does mean that it's usually not heaving like the rest of the city in August.
