Before you get excited and go looking for Tesco, I should point out that this really is just a slightly overgrown convenience store. However that said, it's a very useful asset to the town and provides a little competition to what would otherwise be a monopoly for the Co-op.
I'd say that this store is fine if you're just looking for everyday groceries, and has enough to do even a weekly shop if you don't want anything too sophisticated, but it's not the place to go if you expect to fill a trolley with exotic foods.
The checkout area is fairly cramped and seems to be geared up to basket shoppers rather than large trollies (like the rest of the shop, really), but staff are generally fairly cheerful (perhaps they get extra Clubcard points) and the store is bright and clean.
Main disadvantage is that although the location is very central, you are likely to struggle to park outside so if you buy a months supply of cat food, you'll have to lug it some distance back to the car! read more
