The staff are all incredibly friendly, and the shelves are well stocked with goods. There are the normal offers as you would expect from a Sainsbury's, and unlike some supermarkets they ensure that the shelves doe contain the items on offer. Outside the store there is a large carpark, which you do have to pay to use however you get this back off your shopping providing you spend over a certain amount (I think it's £5.00), so basically you are guaranteed it back. A great supermarket where you can normally get everything you need for your grocery shopping, as well as a bit of a treat from the clothing range.
