People were always restocking shelves so you had plenty to choose from. We used both the self service and the manned checkout stands and they were equally efficient.

I find the security staff intimidating and rude I think one guy there has mummy issues and should really have counselling and not be taking his anger out on customers who do no wrong. The self service section is a joke as half of them have not been switched on and the one l used made me feel as if l just won the jackpot on a fruit machine in a pub, how can a shop justify paying a customer 62p change in 2p pieces. Ice cream that has been defrosted is being re frozen and sold again when l reported the issue to the duty manager he did nothing. Tesco sort yourselves out!

It's handy to have a decent sized Tesco in the City Centre. I mean, it's no Tesco Extra, but it…read moremanages to stock most of what you'd expect, and a fair bit of what you wouldn't, within a relatively compact space. Generally these days, if I'm in the City Centre and my shopping list consists of much more than eggs, milk and bread, this is where I go. Their range is just that bit wider than that of their nearest neighbours and that makes all the difference. I don't want to have to visit four city centre supermarkets to find cornflower, for example, so I just start here. The other advantage of a slightly larger store is that they have more price point options than your average convenience store. It still won't be the cheapest possible shop, but for at least some items they'll have the "budget", the "regular" and the "luxury" options to choose from. They also have space to run just a few more promotions and, as they insist upon reminding us, every little helps.

Despite their cringe-inducing, "Give it Aldi!" adverts, I really quite like Aldi. The German…read morediscount supermarket has improved considerably and has just been named supermarket of the year by consumer group, Which?. Aldi, like arch-rval, Lidl, stock a fairly limited range of mostly own-brand food, and weekly non-food special offers, such as DIY, motoring, outdoors, etc. By limited range, I mean that they tend to focus on a narrower spread of varieties of each product, I quite like this - because I tend to procrastinate... now which variety of houmous to choose? Regular, Peri-peri, red pepper, chilli-infused, etc. Keeping it simple speeds up my shopping no end! They now have a "deluxe" range too, like Tesco Extra Special or Sainsbury's Taste the Difference. For a city-centre supermarket, this is probably the best in Glasgow. Prices way cheaper than Asda, and a far wider range than the Tesco/Sainsbury's convenience stores. And with a proper fresh fruit and veg selection. This store is popular with students at the nearby halls, as well as Merchant City residents. Currently, twin pack red pointed sweet peppers are 79p - compared with around £1.80 in Tesco. 500ml Williams Bros beers are £1.60 or so, tinned tomatoes 30p, 6 large free-range eggs, 99p, cherry plum tomatoes 59p. The weekly super-six fruit and veg deals is epic, last week a bag of six oranges for 59p... amazing! A special mention has to be made for Aldi's Ribera del Duero red wine - this is absolutely one of the best budget (sub-£15) reds you can buy. Trust me on this, you'll impress the snobbiest of dinner guests with this one, it's awesome, and under £6. In summary, really good quality stuff, large range of fresh fruit and veg, good meat and chilled section, great booze, and who knows, you might pick up a bargain riding crop or air compressor!

Things I like about here:…read more It's really close to home The fruit/veg part is really well stocked and is of very good quality It has a random tat section You can get Williams Bros, Drygate and Brewdog beers for around £1.50 Overall, you get a lot of bang for your buck. Things I dont like: There's a tendency to wait until there are huge queues before opening another checkout - and then only having it open for 5mins. I wish it was bigger.

I was doubtful & did wonder if he'd got confused but nope, taxi man, you were right! Gold star. Another supermarket in my neck of the woods is always welcome as I have sort of fallen out with Te*cos...long story, but basically I only shop there if I really have to/have no other choice and it just so happens the 2 nearest supermarkets to me are both blinkin' T*scos! *grumble* SO, HELLO MORRISONS! :-) Only time I've been in a Morrisons is once to the Mozzers at Easterhouse/Fort, once to le Partick one and a few times to one doon South in that Norfolk. Always thought 'Meh' about them before UNTIL (da da DA!) I stepped into the wonderful, shiny new Mozzers at Barrack Street! Wow. I am a tiny bit sad in that I actually ENJOY supermarket shopping. I love looking at all the new produce they have in stock and I could honestly wander around the bigger ones ALL DAY (just about). ROCK AND ROLL!! Whatever, we all have our 'thangs' and supermarkets are one of mine, okay? Cool. Now onto this place - I actually walked around the first part of the supermarket saying 'Wow!' and 'Ooh!' to myself (and maybe a tad too loud at points...) looking at all the wondrous things! So many weird and wonderful vegetables and fruits ~ a few I've never heard of ever, let alone seen before. The amount of fresh veg/fruit/produce this place has is outstanding and (dare I say it) even BETTER than Waitrose! (Shock horror!) I also LOVED their funky cooling/keep fresh pipe system they had ~ every now & then pumping out cool cool air onto the precious things, I felt like I was in some mental veg-filled disco at one point (FIRE IN THE DISCO! FIRE IN THE DISCO!) in fact I even did a wee dance of joy at one (sad) point to see such a beautiful thing smothering and freshifying (?!) all the magical vegetables/fruits. Yes, I'm a mentalist. Their selection of fresh produce, not only veg/fruit ~ with your very own greengrocer on hand to help you should you need it (I have visions of people walking up saying 'POTATO?!'), but also their Fresh To Go section ~ making fresh sarnies for you from scratch, bakery, fishmongers, butchers, cake shop, delicatessen and their Oven Fresh counter ~ offering fresh roast chickens, pies, etc. really is what makes this supermarket super. I could've happily filled my trolley up to the brim with all the fabby fresh produce alone before I'd even reached the other aisles. Really like the layout ~ feels spacious and looks clean/tidy and bright too. Also when I stepped inside I totally forgot I was in (a not so great part of) the East End of Glasgow. My only (totally selfish/personal) gripe is that I wish it was closer to me and wasn't at the end of a bit of a dodgy street. Apart from that I LOVE this place and will be back.

Morrisons is probably my favourite of the main brand supermarkets, the food always seems fresher…read moreand the staff are a nicer breed. This branch is one of their newest ventures and it is one of my favourite branches. Even the new gimmicks make me smile like the chilled haze over the herbs and stem vegetables. The store has the standard "Market Street" consisting of freshly made pizzas, cheese counter, cold meats, hot meats, butcher, fishmonger and baker. The only thing missing would be a candlestick maker but that is beyond the point. They stock a great selection across all the ranges and the staff are always there to help. Food on the counters is fresh and looks appealing. Displays always appear to be being filled and faced up. Bakery always smells like there is fresh bread ready to eat. Nice little cafe/restaurant which serves everything from a cuppa and a cake to a full meal (kids eat free on weekdays, not sure how that works not having any children) and flower stand at the front of the store. Plenty of parking and easy access from public transport. I like a nice in-town supermarket that has all the bits and pieces you will generally need. I wouldn't be a repeat customer if they didn't have good service.

Sometimes you just want some carrots. An apple. A sandwich. And a bottled beverage. Or a…read morecookie. Answering that call: Marks and Spencer Simply Food. Where else, within Glasgow Central, would cater to all my gastric whims, while still allowing me to catch a soon-to-depart train? Were it not for M&S, I would be a writhing, starving mess huddled alone in a corner with an expired travel visa. But thanks to them, I was able to grab a sandwich sampler, some fruit and veg, a drink and dessert (all for well under 10 pounds) and eat my bounty on a train bound for Edinburgh. My food was delicious and reasonably priced, given the food court/train station prices as a benchmark.

I've always been a fan of Marks and Sparks, specifically their food, and with it's location in…read moreCentral Station, the benefit of convenience becomes another string to this store's bow. However, while M&S food is almost always good, a few bad eggs can still slip through the net, as the frankly revolting chicken ceasar wrap I got the other day showed. It's rarely I describe a food item as "gross", but it's truly the most befitting description for this lunchtime disaster. 99.9% of their stuff is still excellent so don't let it put you off.

This shop has to be aimed at all the nearby office workers, due to no shortage of them…read more With shelves laden with sandwiches, wraps and rolls to go on their meal deal range, they seem to reduce food pretty early on the day to be sure that there is little to to bin at the end of the working day. I've seen at weekends like melon or even fresh asparagus for 20p. Sainsbury's are heading to the route of having little staff and more of those awkward self service counters. Overall the store has less variety & selection than a regular store but serves your basic need's.

This is the nearest Sainsbury's to my work so I pop into it quite a lot when I forget to pick up…read moreingredients during my main shop. Today I went in for a swede. I want to make stew and forgot to pick one up yesterday. Because I always go here after work and it closes early (i think it's opening hours reflect the surrounding office buildings), things start getting reduced at about 5 and I finish at 5 so always grab a bargain. I picked up half a swede, a small bag of new potatoes and a cauliflower all for the princely sum of 90p! They didn't have any vegan butter which I also planned to pick up but I will survive without it...for now. This place recently got self scanners which amuse me because as usual there was a man telling everyone to come use them but only 1 person on the actual checkout and a huge queue. Self scanners annoy me.

Sainsbury's on Buchanan is one of the largest Sainsbury's Local stores, I've come across, located…read moreby the Buchanan Galleries in Glasgow city centre, it's a great central supermarket for most of what you need. I was impressed by the selection in the store, with a good selection of cooked meats and dairy products including milk and cheese, tending to go beyond the usual Sainsbury's Local offering. The store is open daily until 10 pm, which is an hour earlier than most Sainsbury's Local stores in England from Monday to Saturday, as of course England is restricted by Sunday Trading laws. I wasn't a fan of the checkout area, it seemed too big and a little confusing, but the Sainsbury's Smartshop app is handy to skip the checkout as you simply scan items as you walk around the store, pay on your phone and head out. The staff weren't overly friendly or helpful, but still, it's probably the best place for groceries in Glasgow city centre in a prime central location within the city.

I like this supermarket which is conveniently located next to Buchannan St underground, and I've…read morebeen using it a lot more since my local Somerfield on Byres Road died and went to heaven (or perhaps hell, the store wasn't particularly good). For a city supermarket this has everything you need for that pop-in shop on your way home from work. There's a kiosk section with the usual magazines and tobacco products, as well as fridges full of lunch-time snacks. There's a decent bakery section, good fruit and veg, lots of easy-make dinner options and a good selection of booze for when you've had a particularly long day. Granted, Sainsbury's isn't the best value of the supermarket giants, but the bakery has discounts at the end of the day and it has a lot of its own-brand cereals, frozen foods and soups etc which are significantly cheaper than the big brand names. I usually pop in during the after work rush hour, but the long queues quickly disappear and you never have to wait very long for the self-service check-outs.
