I hate to say it, but this store lets Heron Foods down as a brand, I've visited numerous Heron Foods stores before in Warrington, Liverpool and Middleton, and found them to be much nicer, larger stores, and Middleton is even a town smaller than Wigan (Hard to believe I know), so if Heron Foods can do it right here why not in Wigan?
Now, I'm not saying this is a horrible store for the locals but in a way it lets down the people of Wigan due to its' size and range.
It is located in Wigan city center, near the Indoor and Outdoor markets, and the store in some ways is so small, you literally could have to queue to get around the store as due to baskets in the middle of the store, it can be a little narrow.
The range is pretty poor, with my standard Heron Foods favorites such as Ten Acre crisps and Lipton Iced Teas were not stocked here, and the range was nowhere near as big and as much to chose from as the Middleton store, which doubles up as a mini-supermarket.
This store is OK, but it is nothing more than that, I hope this store steps up its' game store, not just to compete with the rest of Wigan, but other Heron Foods branches too, this store is being unfairly left behind which lets down Heron Foods as a brand, and potential customers. Due to issues discussed above, I sadly don't feel it warrants anything over than 2 stars here. read more
