Hardly any parking spaces, which are spaced out in the most un-efficient way, and does not utilize the space properly. The inside has still got the original flooring which it had when it was first built - even though it is un even and they have been sued due to a number of accidents. Their response 'it wouldnt be cost effective to replace the floor'. I would say it hasnt been done up since it was built, but they have recently moved some isles about to make room for their 'clothes' section. ALthough i am not too sure if one isle counts as a section. The staff have also been working there since it was open, and their lack of presentation and customer service skills says nothing of sainsburys 'extensive' training. Perhaps they should pop over to tesco to see how its done. Actually looking at Tesco staff, maybe they should go somewhere else! All in all, it is very dated, and very expensive. I would only go here if tesco was shut, and i couldnt find what i needed anywhere else! Not the greatest places, and the bakery isnt exactly the cleanest of places.

Has free parking (no need to redeem parking vouchers, park and go in) for 2 hours and if you go after 6pm on saturdays, it's practically empty. Staff will also open a new checkout if there is a queue of more than 3 trolleys or so. The trolleys aren't falling apart like in some of the other sainsburys and aren't left lying round the car park as staff frequently collect them. Great!

Simply amazing. I can't rave about this stores recent makeover enough. I feel I should get paid…read morelike a top PR the amount I have enthused for the new store... which was long overdue being modernised and this Summer saw Tesco Watford become the talk of the town and the nation, as it's the first to get the flash new overhaul and it made the news. Literally. The renovations were undertaken without closing the store and whilst I admit I did stop shopping here while they were being carried out, I returned, opening day, with a fist full of vouchers to entice me back. You now have to queue to get in the car park. But...it's worth it and they now have car park assistants who direct you to spaces (layout has changed in the car park and disabled bays are now near the main doors). Outside is the same except for the swanky new Giraffe restaurant we are lucky to have in Watford now... But that deserves its own review later! Inside. Customer services is in same place, bit small and under staffed for a super store perhaps. There's a new 'scan and shop' section which I still need to try but I see a lot if peeps are using it. Food to go area is fab. Think salad bar to help yourself, loads if sarnies to chose from and pre packed salad and sushi goodies. Also it's a good section to nip to if picnicking. Plus there's self serve tills for this section alone so it's super convenient. The new bakery. Wowsers. So middle class and rustic. I lurve. Wooden table a la farm house laden with baked goods and hearty loaves. Also a counter with lots of posh desserts (quite pricey) and cakes. It's quite hard to grasp this is now where all bread and cakes are though. But it's early days. The toilet is in this section. No sign though. Annoying. And only one in whole hench store which is disappointing. Harris and Hoole. Love the look. Great lattes. Will sample food am sure. Always busy and not keen on the buzzers they give you to wait for coffee. Bit ott. But there's a coffee cart directly outside store so I usually grab one there as less busy. Florence and Fred. Happy days. This section looks amazing. Trolleys are able to mooch the aisles and it really feels like a proper clothes store, better fixtures and layout/feel than Marks or Next. And stock is great, fab designs and cheap as chips. I always come away with something. Fitting rooms are spacious too. Rest of store super laid out. New pizza counter (still not a patch on Asda's counter pizzas though- listen up Mr Tesco!). Fruit and veg section is epic, so spacious and easier to navigate than before. Make up and health sections look great as does home wears. Proper department store vibes. Loving. Dangerous for my bank balance. Opticians and pharmacy both helpful and knowledgable. Tills are still bit queuey but lots of people are checking out the store so busier than usual I think. Defo worth a visit. You can spend a whole day in here which I guess is the point as it has a destination shopping feel now. They even do yoga and kids classes here. Massive thumbs up!!

I only wish I could afford to shop there all the time! The food is of excellent quality and they have an impressive variety too. It's never crowded and the staff are friendly and helpful.

I was going to describe it as a health food shop, but that gives the impression that it's one of the many typically small ones dotted about London, but this place is more like a super healthy supermarket. It has a fantastic range of organic fruit and veg, meat and chilled items, but what's most surprising is the quality of their frozen food. You'll never have to feel guilty about eating microwave meals again as the ones here such as 'Halibut and Sweet Potato' are delicious (they have see-through covers so you know exactly what you're getting) and they're nutritionally balanced too. Perfect for after yoga when I'm too relaxed to bother cooking. They also have a great range of organic beauty products including fantastically fruity smelling Jason shower gels. You can even take in your old Ecover containers to fill up to save on nasty throwaway plastic. The staff are always smiling and often come over to offer help, but not in an annoying way where you feel like they're only doing it because they have to. These guys really are interested in nutrition! This comes in helpful in the natural remedies area where they're happy to go through all the products until you feel assured that you can find what you're looking for when you don't really know yourself. It's very shopper friendly, showing that eating well and respecting the environment doesn't have to be a specialist or difficult way of life and I really admire such a great attitude.

Although I love Fresh & Wild, there's nothing wrong with seeking an alternative and As Nature Intended is a great alternative to small chains like Fresh & Wild.

There are all the usual things here too - organic snacks and meats as well as little brands you can't get in the big chain supermarkets. I'm all up for supporting stores like this, plus you know what you're getting is fresh and *really* organic without a marketing campaign or Jamie Oliver's big face branded all over the products!

I feel like the prices are reasonable, but the selection seemed a little off kilter. I'm not really sure what they were going for but I couldn't find the brands that I was looking for. I ended up getting substitute products that were pretty good, so I don't understand too much how that works.
