This is my first experience of and Aldi store, and I must say I'm hugely impressed!…read more We visited on the stores 'grand opening' and a lovely member of staff gave my daughter a balloon! brill - it kept her entertain so I could have a good nosy round. what I noticed first that some of the produce, washing up liquid for example was extreemly cheap, 60p I think, but it was in the same shape and style bottle as fairy liquid. The only thing different was the lable and that's what's great about Aldi, you're getting top brand stuff, perhaps with a different lable at rock bottem prices! Excellent! It's well worth having a good browse round as there're lots of bargains to be found.

Cracking new Aldi store at Monks Cross in York!…read more This place opened in November 2008 and is really good, a lot bigger than the other Aldi in York and in a great lcoation adjacent to one of Yorks biggest and best out of town shopping centres, Monks Cross. There is a huge array of food, drink and other items available from TVs to laptops! The only drawback is that that car park is a bit on the small side for a shop of this size!

Morrison's is definitely the best compromise between quality and price. In particular I usually…read morefind the fruit and veg to be of excellent quality and not over-priced. Bakery section is good. Butchery/meat I find to be of variable quality and price but if you choose carefully there are sometimes bargains to be had. Checkout service is OK and there are normally sufficient checkouts open.

awful store. since covid hit everything went to sh*t. prices have gone up exponentially and to get…read moreany sort of 'deal' prices you HAVE to have a Morrisons more card, but I've found even then the offers don't come off at the checkout, I ALWAYS have to double check I have the correct prices. there is never any cheese and bacon pasta at the pasta/salad bar, it's a joke. staff are either old and incompetent or young and have no clue.

This Waitrose is a wonderful supermarket. It's a little pricy, though only on certain, rather…read moreunpredictable items. They sell a great selection of produce, health products, snacks, baked goods, meats, wines, kitchen tools, applicances, and electronics. The focus is certainly on the supermarket sort of items - the cookware and electronics are a little sparse if you're looking for serious comparison shopping, but in a pinch they'll certainly do. Some of the best things: - everything is fresh - the staff are helpful and numerous - great brand selection - the great "voting" chips for charity Less good are the high prices, but honestly, it's worth it for a treat of semi high-end groceries. I highly recommend the bread, as well as the chocolate selection!

Asda! my favourite supermarket of them all, and Asda Monks Cross is HUGE!!…read more Asda is probably the cheapest of the 'big' supermarkets, I'm going to start by telling you about the clothes! To get to the clothes you have to journey up the 'travelator', my daughter thinks this is the best bit! it's like a slanting walkway that takes you up to the mezzanine floor where the clothes are. The best part of Asda clothes is the value, t shirts and jeans, jumpers etc. Wardrobe essentials at great prices, typically you can get a pair of jeans from as little as £3! The childrens clothes are fantastic, hard wearing and value for money whilst still very much on trend! Back down the travelator to the dvd's, cd's, compter games as well as mobile phones, tv's dvd players and sometimes even computers and laptops! There's always a brilliant selection of electrical items at good prices and they even have a 'budget' range! Great for students (toaster for £3 anyone)? Asda's own range of food is great, worth a try. Definitely give the Tiger bread a try .. YUMMY

This place is an absolutely MASSIVE Asda!…read more This is a really big Asda store at Monks Cross York, including a huge clothing and jewellery range upstairs and everything else under the sun downstairs, including all the usual Asda counters such as hot food, fish, freshly made pizzas, delicatessan, indian & chinese take aways, meat and bakery. Asda is usually great for offers as well and the Welcomer at the front of the store usually announces what offers they currently have over the tannoy at regular intervals. There is a massive car park, petrol station (usually the cheapest in York), car wash, Pharmacy, Opticians and cafe. Also it is surrounded by a wide range of other shops on the Monks Cross shopping park.

This is a large Tesco Extra store, it is located towards the rear of St Stephen's Shopping Centre…read morein Hull city centre. It's pretty much a typical Tesco Extra in terms of the look/feel of the store, which still felt familiar to a first-time visitor to this store like myself, the opening hours between 6 am and midnight appear to be in line with other Tesco Extra's store, which unfortunately seemed to ditch 24-7 opening in the post-pandemic era. Handheld scanners are available at the front of the store, where you can scan and bag items as you shop before going to the checkout to finish up. I did have difficulty unlocking scanners and had to enter my Clubcard number on multiple occasions. I much prefer the Sainsbury's and Marks and Spencer approach, of using their app on your phone to scan, rather than relying on an in-store scanner. I did find the selection of food and drink in the to-go fridge section to be quite poor, I couldn't find a standard 500 ml iced tea in the entire store, and in the end, I had to opt for a large 1.25 litre bottle. I did find it to be rather odd how the milk was divided up into two different sections, and I had to ask a staff member for help finding my preferred brand of milk, it's a big enough store and there's no reason they can't keep it all together. 3* - A nice supermarket sure, has some improvements to make, but no better or worse than the average Tesco.

Absolutely massive Tesco store, stocks just about everything you could ever need…read more The queues can get quite long at times, but there are now plenty of self service tills.

Aldi is a cheap supermarket selling a range of food as well as other household items…read more It is cheap and they have good offers but I find the stores themselves very unwelcoming, weirdly quiet, and not very aesthetically pleasing. I go occasionaly but do prefer a slightly more welcoming, friendly atmosphere is shops. I am more likely to go when I see an advert on TV for a good offer they have on!

This branch of tesco seems to have gone downhill recently. I had a very poor customer service…read moreexperience recently where I was marched to another checkout, even though the one I went to was also empty. I expressed my dissatisfaction but it went un noticed. I felt so strongly that I wrote a complaint letter to the store but never recieved any response. The shelves seem to be half empty most of the time like they don't have the time to re stock? I do however like Tesco and so I now shop in another store which opened last year and is much bigger than this store. I wonder how many other people have done the same thing.

good staff here always very polite especially if you need help, the only downfall in this tesco is…read morethat when they have a really good offer on the stock seems to run out super fast, but for everyday shopping i find it a simple almost pleasant environment to get things done. Also a lot of the time the mother and child car parking spaces are full of people that have no children or those using the cash points, so they could probably do more to monitor this, even still an easy enough place to shop.

We have used this shop for a long time and did not realise how good it was until we moved away and…read morefound nothing else like it. If you want ingredients (mostly loose in tubs) then this is your place. It is not a grocery shop and does not attempt to be one, it just has loads of things which you can get in the quantities you want. If you cannot see it, just ask, as they have stuff which is not on display because the shop is full already. Watch out too for the idiosyncratic alternate shelf packing - look behind what you see as the next packet might be what you want! This place is so good we make a bee line for Scoops when we come back to visit Malton.

This place is a good first stop if you're gonna do some baking, got everything you could possibly…read moreneed in big self-service tubs. Aside from the usual baking ingredients, they also have loads of cereals, which are well priced, and lots of loose sweets and chocolates. They also have some general groceries, but the selection is quite small, the main focus is on the loose items. Most of the merchandise is quite cheap, apart from the ready packaged items, which are usually a bit more than elsewhere. Very useful shop though, and the staff are always happy to help if you need it.
