Normally walk to the Southsea store, but today drove. Came…read moreback to find no space and door just opened enough to get shopping through, then I heard a teenager in the car say 'don't damage my mother's car'. I gave him his hat back which he had dropped beside my car and told him that there was no damage and tried to explain they had not left me enough room to get in. He then said 'don't argue with me' and launched into an unprovoked tirade of abuse. His mother returned and he kindly told me to F*** off then got out of his car and took a picture of me although I told him this would be harassment - which it was. It is so nice to have a chance to mix with the upper classes at Waitrose, you just don't get this at other supermarkets.

Really nice to get that sense of community shop from a big chain store. Original review: Great size for a local Waitrose, big enough to be the catch-all, but not a megastore by any stretch of the imagination. It's hard to review a Waitrose it seems. If you really need a lot of info maybe try wikipedia. (btw, their bread counters are always brilliant).

This small Tesco store is a nightmare!…read more It's in a very convenient location, but (and it's a big but) the shop is small, cramped, dark and very busy. Queueing up at the tills is a nightmare and if you need more than a basketful of shopping it's horrendous! The in store bakery isn't very good especially if compared to the Tesco at Commercial Road. there is quite a limited selection of products and it is not a pleasant shopping experience. Even the Somerfield down the road is much better than this!

Deli and chocolate products are my recommendations. you can look at their website or sign up for their newsletter to keep abreast of their latest special offers which are often themed, e.g DIY, kids toys, kitchen items etc. I have to agree that at Christmas they do some excellent items that other supermarkets either don't stock of charge a whole lot more for.

Even though I dislike their TV ad's it won't put me off shopping here as the food is good quality and the prices are good though not on fresh fruit or veg. In fact I would say that their chiller cabinet goods are generally not as competitively priced as their frozen goods, however they sell milk at an excellent price.

Another reviewer mentioned that this Asda used to be open 24 hours, but as I recall this branch of Asda has never had 24 hour opening. The hours are very good in my opinion, it is open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 10pm Saturdays 8am to 9pm and the normal Sunday 10am to 4pm. Asda has recently had a make over and now has a second floor where all the clothes, electricals, DVD's and home stuff is located. I do my weekly shop in Asda as generally they stock the widest range of the types of things I like to buy including a very good selection of salad and vegetables, as well as a wide range of meat. The staff are normally pretty helpful both at the tills and customer service desk, and generally the items I want are in stock.

Generally a good supermarket, but not where i currently choose to do my monthly shop. Like another…read moreuser has mentioned, this Asda tend to be out of stock of many items these days.

OK, I will be honest - I use the car park at Sainsbury more than I use Sainsbury itself. That is my…read morelittle tip for this place - you can park here for 90 minutes without charge and it is a short walk away to Portsmouth town centre. I sometimes pop in to buy something though there's no barriers or people checking receipts. Be warned they do patrol and enforce the 90 minute rule. The supermarket itself is okay. Nothing special but the shelves are usually well stocked which is more than can be said for some other supermarkets. There is a limited range of non food items - this really is a supermarket where people actually buy food. There is a coinstar machine if you have a load of old coppers you want changing. Another tip is that if you have 6 items or less (or is it fewer) you can go the tobacco / lottery kiosk. If there is something that you need from Sainsbury - some great offer - especially non food then your best bet is to go to the one on the A27, or even take a trip down the M27.

You should be able to do your weekly shop all in one go here, but if you are looking for none food items this place isn't going to to fit the bill. If you have a car it's pretty convenient but if you don't it's a little bit of a pain getting across to the bus stops with your bags. The car park and toilet facilities are very easily accessible which is a big bonus, and there is a cashpoint machine.
