The Waterfront Express is located just before the Selby Waterways Swing Bridge on Dennison road…read more There is street parking outside the store. Waterfront Express has recently changed hands and has benefited from a complete refit. The new owners have created a quality convenience store and Newsagents. The interior is clean and bright with a well-defined store layout. There is a moderately good range of Wines and spirits, many of which are on some kind of special offer. There are also two chilled cabinets for fresh goods. There is a display of fresh fruit and vegetables, breads and general convenience food and drinks. There is a cigarette counter and you can top up your phone. The staff are friendly.

I remember these guys starting out and it was brilliant. They were like a rebel music magazine,…read morebattling it out against Sandman et al, who we all used to find massively boring. We always used to read the music magazines when I worked in a bar, mostly to read recent band reviews, but more mostly to look at the pictures and pass the time in the quiet hours. No Title is just that little bit different though. Actually reading the opinions within did not make me want to drink the bar dry with boredom - they were actually fun, well written and encouraging when it came to bands I didn't know about. Also, their graphics and design are second to none - truly fantastic and exciting to view. They've had more interesting title pages featuring local artists than I could count - let's just say *lots* for argument's sake. If you come across a copy pick it up, you'll find it'll be a real keeper. No Title is vibrant, colourful, well written and relevant to all music lovers in Leeds.

It is a free magazine with reviews, interviews and the articles on the music scene around Leeds. And its really good! Not only does it inform the readers, it entertains us too! They have all the latest gossip on things like the line up for Leeds Festival, Moor Music Festival, new nights at Subculture, gigs on at the Brudenel Social...I could go on. You can find it in any of the independent record shops, - Crash, Jumbo - pubs like The Chemic and The Fenton and bars - North Bar, Baby Jupiter and Dry Dock. Its available in about 50 places so you should stumble across one soon enough. And did I mention its FREE?

You can always find what you want as the range is very extensive.

It can get quite busy in here on market days and the space is quite tight to move, but the staff are friendly and helpful and service is usually quite swift.

I'm a bit of a stationery freak, so the range that they have in here does excite me in ways that folders probably shouldn't. I've only ever been to the stationery section, unsurprisingly, but I've found it to be quite well stocked with a good selection of stuff in lots of funky patterns. You do pay for the priveledge though, of having a pink polka-dot pen to match your pink polka-dot folders, notepads and everything else under the sun. Often they do 75% off sales which brings the prices down to pretty much what the stuff is actually worth, so look out for these. Staff are pretty faceless, adequate, polite, not too much going on with them. I don't buy often so haven't paid too much attention, but haven't noticed anything particularly good or bad with regards to the service.
