I AM NOT HAPPY me and my lovely wife Rachel came here to grab some toilet roll and other items as…read morewe normally shop at tesco but we were near Asda visiting my mother I go to park in most of the free spaces there were trolleys in the way a homeless man outside of the shop I walk and SLIP ON A WET FLOOR there was NO WET FLOOR SIGN I tried to ignore it then I go to grab some tomatoes before getting the toilet roll there was A FARELY LARGE SPIDER IN THE TOMATOES
I must say I do love ASDA, I tend to do most of my shopping here and often pop over to Morrisons to…read moresee what offers there is! ASDA is well known for being the cheapest of the main supermarkets and I must admit that I agree. I often spend less in ASDA and get so much more. ASDA now has added electronic self serve tills to my local store allowing you to scan your own shopping, great fun!! lol Asda not only sell groceries but sell electronics, cd's, books, clothes, and I could go on forever. Recently ASDA have started to put more things on offer, it had previously simply aimed at customers by being the cheapest but now have offers such as 2 for 1. Keep an eye out as you can get some brilliant bargains on roll back! Most asda stores now sell petrol too, which you can pay at the pump - great for if you have a baby with you that you don't want to leave alone. Overall I love ASDA, shame they don't do BOGOF items though!!

This is the main store in the city centre, and is right next to the halls of residence for Coventry…read moreUni. Consequently, it is always mega busy! Always has extensive queues. However, a reasonable product range for a small store, and they are always quite well stocked. Interesting point: it falls within the historical city boundaries and there is a lovely marble feature in the lobby showing the expansion of the city since the mediaeval times. Nice touch.
I visited this branch of Sainsbury's after an interview at Coventry University to refuel. Situated…read moreon a sloping street I found it very difficult to even get in!. There were 3 door on the street but none of them seemed to be open or working. So I had to go around the corner to find a main door. This is a rather compact version of the usually large Superstore, but has everything your average student will need: beer, crisps, pizza. Very close by to the University and centrally located in the city for easy access for all the residents. All the tills were open and busy when I went, which is good to see as that means rapid and easy service. Rivals, I would say, are the Tesco which is also nearby.

The food in Sainsburys is much better than our over local shop Morrison's…read more Im actually 99% certain you will find the food you buy here top notch. And if you dont like the food you buy, because you are disapointed just tell sainsburys. They gave me a voucher last time i did and they were really nice about it. Saisburys pricing isnt as cheap as other places so if you dont like paying extra than this is not for you. Store is fairly old but staff are great most of the time and its always easy to find what you are looking for. Always has great offers on as well, and the pre-cooked meat from the counter seems to be quality on top of the quality that you already get. Tesco's and Morrisons are not as great for quality but if you dont mind paying a little extra its worth it. Also bakery has a large range of cakes which is always nice, but make sure you dont leave it to late in the day or there wont be any left. Can become really busy which is a pain but overall good store to shop in, food great but is more expensive than other supermarkets.
Sainsburys is a great supermarket. And this smaller store is no exception…read more They have a great range of fruit and veg available even having seasonal items too which is good for a small store. They also sell the usual stuff like every other supermarket. Uusally this store gets quite full, but you never seem to queue for too long which is good. Customer services are helpful in every aspect, which cant be said for some stores! They also have a cafe too, which is really nice and reasonably priced too. I have been here a number of times on my lunch. Its really nice.
This is the biggest Tesco I have ever seen! They have the scooters for the disabled but the…read morewheelchairs were all stolen! Prepare to spend a lot of time in here if its your first visit and you're planning a walk down every aisle. It has a large clothing department, entertainment and toy department. Oh they also sell food. They have a really nice salad bar too. There are several retailers within the tesco arena shop including to name a few: dry cleaners, library, game and carphone warehouse. There is also a cafe which can get busy on match days. Check out the conditions of parking if you're going up on match days! 2 hours free any longer you need to spend £25.
This Tescos is MASSIVE!! It has everything from carrots to tvs to clothes. Great clothing range and…read moremany gifts and electrical items too. Fantastic store if a little overwhelming at first. Situated next to the Ricoh this is the biggest tescos in Europe. So why they put it in coventry is yet to be seen. So much choice for everything. Inside tescos you see a number of smaller shops lined up along the outside such as game, clinton cards, carphonewarehouse and others.
A brand new store, this shop is very similar to Aldi, and does very low price fresh foods…read more Especially good for cold meats and cheeses, some products in here are far cheaper than you can get anywhere else. Has rotating offers on homewares and other products, all very cheap if you can catch them in time.
The new security system is insane. They randomly brake trollies exiting the store and the security…read moreguard comes over and checks your receipt etc. Unfortunately there's something called the laws of physics, specifically something called momentum. If my trolley suddenly stops, I don't. My body, my arms, my legs, my my lower back are all still in motion and I have to absorb the impact of my trolly now being an immovable object. Thanks for the sore back Tesco.

The staff are very polite and are always there too help.The prices are good and affordable. the only problem is the parking as it is a main road. I would recommend it for convenience and a quick shop to grab a few bits and bobs.
My weekly shopping store. Prices are cheaper than sainsburys and morrisons…read more Staff are ok, but not helpful when something is wrong Store is kept clean and products are well set out in a clean, easy to find manner Apart from it being cheap and reasonable value, the quality of the food for me isnt good enough. Yes it is good for some of the quality brands but Tesco's own brand for me is too cheap. For example the ham from Tesco's was 25p cheaper than Sainsburys. But the Sainsburys Ham was a lot lot better. Worth more than 25p better in my opinion. The self service tills do seem to be a bit of a pain and there always seems to be one plonker who is right in front of you who doesnt know how to use it. Can be an efficient way nevertheless. Tesco's is my weekly shopping store for branded goods, but i wouldnt use Tesco for its own branded stuff.
Good tesco store, not the biggest but has a wide range of foods and drinks from all cultures. It is…read morevery good value like most tesco's although due to its close proximity to the university of warwick many students work here who can be unhelpful and not particularly friendly. There is good parking and many other shops located with the cannon park shopping centre so it makes it well worth a visit if you live quite close by. However, for a more complete shopping experience i would adivse the Arena Park tesco which is the biggest in europe and sells almost everything in one store.

My Grandad lives down the road from Zeb's, so for me, it's a great place to go in for a snack or a…read moredrink on the way to visiting him. I've been going in there since my childhood days, so I've come to know the ins and outs of the entire store. Price's are cheap to reasonable, and they sell a delicious large carton of orange for £2 which I always go in for. I highly recommend it! Zeb's is great for kids, but maybe not so great for parents, as children usually end up nagging for sweets every time they go inside. The selection of sweets is really great though, and I also remember trying my hardest to persuade my own parents to buy most of the sweet isle. Even today, I sometimes fail to resist the odd Dib Dab. The shop used to have a DVD store at the back of it too, I've bought some great films from there including Con Air for £1. I really miss that section of the shop, but I'm hoping they bring it back. They're currently having an extension. Fingers crossed eh!
I had lived one mile away for years before I found this wonderful supermarket…read more The staff are great, and there's a wide range of food at very low prices. The wine etc is very cheap too, and doesn't taste like vinegar. There is even now a free cashpoint outside the store.

The pros are that if you need a pint of milk, snacks or general essentials then you are in luck. The place stays open until about 8pm too when other stores are closed. Overall the owners could be friendlier and if redecorated would be a better place.
There's no other convenience store on Digbeth Street like Nisa Local. The location is ideal as it's…read morenot too far from flats and is on the way as you head into the city centre (if you go up Digbeth street.) The store is also near some of Birmingham's main attractions and it's handy that they have free cash withdrawals! They met my expectations of a convenience store as their products range from basic fresh vegetables to toiletries, pretty handy right? However for an off license they only had a small selection of alcohol. The staff were friendly and gave a casual greeting as I walked in and I could see they were bored they but they were surprisingly chatty when I went to the counter. In this day in age most people are trying to save money and Nisa Local has some money saving deals. When I went there they had an offer to buy two chocolate bars for the price of one. The products in general are quiet cheap as well and it was a relief to know they take card payments with no charge or them saying something like "you have to spend....to pay on card"

Very recently opened, Lidl is brand new in Leamington Spa. As supermarkets go, it's pretty small,…read moreand you can't guarantee exactly what they will have in stock, so it is better as a place to wander around and see what you fancy than somewhere to set out with a shopping list. That said, they do have a good range of things, most of which are brands we don't usually see in this country. What they sell can be incredibly cheap, last time I got an avocado for 17p and and a mango for 20p, and they were both tasty enough and kept fine. One downside to this place is that the car park is small and there have been queues to get in. Also, they don't seem to have the trolleys that you can put your baby car seat in, so it's not quite as easy as some other supermarkets. But worth stopping by for a few cheap goodies.

My main complaint is that at Christmas a display at the top of the escalators offered three for two. For all intents and purposes this seemed to apply to the tins of chocolates. People in a hurry could be easily fooled (as was I) as on going to the front of the display and looking carefully at the small print it actually meant for wrapping and tags. This only became apparent to me when I got home and checked the tab. I have spoken to a number of people who were likewise deceived. Sharp practice Tesco and very poor marketing. Your reward is that I will shop at one of the other supermarkets for a period of three months. You really are better than that !!
Immortalised by a credit on an Ocean Colour Scene album, Ruprai Food & Wines is an Kings Heath…read moreinstitution. When the band were between record labels, OCS singer Simon Fowler would pop round the corner from Westfield Road to Ruprai for liquid-based inspiration. The 'food' is before the 'wine' in the title, but the ordering of the words is merely an attempt at glossing over what people mainly come it for. Its the wine. Or generally speaking, booze. And what a glorious stock of the stuff they have. At the very low end you have cider that has possibly never seen an apple in its life. At the high end are premium spirits like absinthes, (3 varieties nonetheless), and my favourite bourbon, (some say the only bourbon) Maker's Mark. And inbetween, a range of wines of all shades, varieties, and vintages between £3.99 to around the fifteen quid mark. On the day I bought a bottle of Hardy's Shiraz 1998 for £4.99. At £4 cheaper than anywhere else this is typical of savings to me made at Ruprai.
This place is rammed to the rafters with everything your local convenience store could ever want or…read moreneed. As mentioned it isn't the cheapest, but it's got everything and is open all the time. Well, obviously that's not quite true, but it's always open when I've needed it. From pain killers, to toilet roll and alcohol to tomatoes-it has it all. I use it mainly as a snack stop for crisps and chocolate these days when I can't be bothered to make it all the way up to the high street. The guys are always friendly. We used to live opposite and although there are loads of deliveries and people coming and going we never had any hassle at all. Sometimes it was just nice to pop in for a chat as much as anything. It's neatened up recently but is still a great place to stock up on those essentials you've run out of. There's usually space to park on Westfield Road but watch out for Friday lunchtimes. Also, as a past resident, I'd just like to say that it used to annoy me enormously when people would park in front of our drive, meaning we couldn't get out. Little rant over...
