Deli and chocolate products are my recommendations. you can look at their website or sign up for their newsletter to keep abreast of their latest special offers which are often themed, e.g DIY, kids toys, kitchen items etc. I have to agree that at Christmas they do some excellent items that other supermarkets either don't stock of charge a whole lot more for.

This is the other cheap supermarket in Portsmouth. I like shopping there at this time of year as…read morethey have the best Christmas food. You must get yourself a box of their chocolate covered gingerbread it's great stuff. Their veg isn't really that great but lots of good tinned stuff and cheese is always a good buy. There's a bus stop just outside which is dead handy too.

This convenience store is located just outside of the town centre. However it is situated next to…read morethe students union so is very popular with students looking to buy a snack for lunch. It sells the usual selection of convenience foods such as sandwiches, chocolate and crisps. It also sells some groceries but the selection isn't large enough to do your main food shopping there. The prices are higher than you would pay in a larger supermarket but they are comparable to other convenience stores. You can also buy cigarettes, alcohol and magazines there. It sells everything that a student needs to keep them going through the day.

It is also very close to two other supermarkets Iceland and Farm Foods. They have a bakery, a fresh fish counter and a deli. Waitrose is a nice place to get extra special bits like speciality meats and biscuits. They also do a nice range of breads and cakes. They have a hot food counter where you can get already cooked items. It also does good quality fruit and vegetables. The staff are not overly friendly, but individual members of staff are lovely.

They have a fresh meat, bakery, fish section which is good - staff are generally happy to help and do the job of cutting meat etc quite well.

I have been shopping in this Asda since it was first opened, and generally it is my supermarket of…read morechoice as it is well located and stocks a wide range of goods that I enjoy. Another reviewer mentioned that this Asda used to be open 24 hours, but as I recall this branch of Asda has never had 24 hour opening. The hours are very good in my opinion, it is open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 10pm Saturdays 8am to 9pm and the normal Sunday 10am to 4pm. Asda has recently had a make over and now has a second floor where all the clothes, electricals, DVD's and home stuff is located. I do my weekly shop in Asda as generally they stock the widest range of the types of things I like to buy including a very good selection of salad and vegetables, as well as a wide range of meat. The staff are normally pretty helpful both at the tills and customer service desk, and generally the items I want are in stock.

Generally a good supermarket, but not where i currently choose to do my monthly shop. Like another…read moreuser has mentioned, this Asda tend to be out of stock of many items these days. Generally a good store, but advisable to go in at quieter periods to make sure you can get what you want. Recently refurbished, this branch now has a large (and very good!) homewares and clothing department!

This bakery has both the capability of eating in or takeaway. There is plenty of seating if you…read morewish to eat in. The bakery sells the usual range of cakes, pastries, sandwiches etc. for very reasonable prices. My boyfriend and I often stop here for a treat while we are shopping. The belgian bun with cream comes highly recommended. The food is made fresh so it is good quality. The bakery is situated at the end of Commercial Road and as such some people may miss it if they don't wander down far enough. However it is worth the extra walk if you like fresh cakes. Although it can get busy at lunch time the staff are able to serve quickly and efficiently so you shouldn't have to wait too long.

I have been issued a parking charge notice whilst parked at their car park. Left the car, when to…read moredo my shopping, get back with my shopping and PAID the ticket for the parking. A few days after I received a parking charge notice for £100 from NCP! Now I am receiving letters from debt collectors, claiming a debt of £160 for parking there, all this just because I shopped and spent my money at Tesco!!! This is honestly unacceptable! I will never do my shopping there again!

I have to say that I dislike shopping in Tesco. Though this is right in the city centre, it is one…read moreof the worst supermarkets in my opinion. The actual store is dim and dark and a face lift would be great! It has a very limited range of fresh meat products and salads, and items are often out of stock - even bag for life carrier bags!

The Garlic Farm is a classic Isle of Wight experience (albeit I don't think much garlic is actually…read moregrown on the farm or even the island) which is consistently enjoyable. A couple of times I've even got to watch red squirrels eat while I dined. The chowder is really good - huge mussels and I recommend the smoked garlic bulb to start it's a real mix of flavours. Chicken caesar salad also goes down well. My son ate his whole meal (garlic sausage and wedges with baked beans) with real enjoyment. The bloody mary with black garlic vodka is sweeter than my preference but they brought out the vampire slayer hot sauve which balanced thar out and gave a massive kick! Some horseradish would make it even better. Children will enjoy the play equipment and fancy chickens and it's also fun to try all the samples in the farm shop. I'm a big fan of the garlic mayo.

And I have to say - it was! You are introduced to a variety of garlic spiced flavours, garlic horseradish, garlic mustard, garlic mayo, garlic pickles - you get the idea! They grow some of the most intriguing garlic you will ever see, white , brown and even black. We tried the famous black garlic ice cream and it wasn't bad ! There was also a young gent selling garlic flavoured corn on the cob which was equally if not more delicious. You can pick up some great gifts here and most friends am sure would love garlic seasoned jars or sauces :) they can last a while and quite inexpensive. Anyone visiting the Isle of Wight this is a must go !!
