Ah, Waitrose. Land of the daily free tea and coffee, home of frozen game and Duchy products.
The Harborne Waitrose is smallish, as they often are, but it still has pretty much everything you'd need to do a full shop- if you don't mind it being a bit more expensive. They started price- matching brand products a while back though, and the Waitrose Essentials stuff is pretty good- and top quality.
I digress. This Waitrose has two tea and coffee machines, near the entrance, so I frequently pop in for my free beverage. It also has a pretty decent cheese counter, deli, butcher and fish counter. It also does rotisserie chickens, which are soooo good. I really rate the wine selection too- with a good sized section of both everyday and special occasion wines (the occasion could just be that you bought some nice wine, of course).
Generally it's a great place to shop. Staff are super friendly, polite and helpful. If you're clumsy like me, they won't charge you for breakages either...
It's also not so big that you get lost, and I like to think about how I'll buy all those fancy biscuits when I'm rich. read more
