Did our grocery shopping here during our stay on Skye. It was just a 10' drive away from our holiday rental. But even if not, this is one of the best options if you need to do grocery shopping.
It's a big store and the parking lot always pretty full. But there's always a spot. In summer you will be greeted by dozens of midges the moment you step out of the car - aggressive little buggers. So if you need to wait for somebody, best to stay in the car.
There are mixed reviews about this shop. And at first glance one can see why. The store looks a bit dated, a bit run-down. And inside there are several shelves empty or at least close to being empty. But this is mainly because there's a huge number of visitors doing their shopping here, so naturally stuff gets sold out. And whenever we went, it was always packed here.
But it is actually a very good store this one. We were suprised by the good quality of all the meat here (rump and sirloin steaks, lamb, bacon, duck) and the variety of the food. All real good value. Ok, the wine section didn't blow us away, but had some enjoyable stuff. We found what we've looked for: soda, water, milk, rice, pasta, veggies, fruits, crackers, bread, eggs, guacamole and hummus dip, wine, Prosecco. Made some enjoyable dinners out of these ingredients. read more
