It is not the largest of sainsbury's but has everything you would want a newspaper/ magazine and tobacco area with seperate till, customer toilets and a great range of products in the main part of the store including a very nice bakery!

This place is massive, and I do mean massive as in gigantic!…read moreThe car park is the size of good park, and the signing is bewildering. My first time there, so give me a break, hey I only wanted petrol (well chocolate too) and had been told it was 'right around the back'. Ok, I understnd that instruction. But it evaporates when, as a newcomer, you enter the entrance of the car park. Where the heck is the back? I'd missed the sign of course, so I tootled round and about, and saw a chap in a reflector jacket, I asked him the way. He made sense, was insructive and clear, until I got to the corner he told me about. Hmmm, what's the worst that could happen? I kept going and finally actually saw a sign, just as I clocked the petrol station. The staff were very friendly indeed, and amused at the quantity of chocolate I bought. Alas, I still need to sponge my skirt as most of it melted on my lap.
I do love Tescos and use the one at Faraday Retail Park in Coatbridge!…read more Unlike Bluesofty's parking experience (ha, ha!) the car park is in front of the store, which is all you see of it when you enter the retail park thank goodness!!! My problem is always (and wherever I am) not being able to find my car when I finish shopping! Not funny when it's a freezing winter's night and one is having a youthful incontinence moment!!!!! The selection of fresh fruit and veg, fish and meat (everything really) in Tescos is brilliant and it is very hard to drag me away from the chocolate aisle! I am a Cadburys Dairty Milkaholic and it has to be the largest possible bar available! I get severe withdrawal symptoms when I detox ocassionally due to the jeans waiste tightening feeling!!! When going through one of these periods I linger for many minutes at a time just looking at the chocolate on the shelf and willing myself not to put any in my trolley!!! A couple of weeks of this and the cravings disappear! I can spend hours in Tesco just looking, wishing to buy and thinking can I or can I not afford (clothes, books, shoes, bags, electrical goods, toys, games, kitchen ware, paint, DIY, the lot)! You name it Tesco has it! It's clean and staff are helpful plus usually share a joke with you, which always makes a day feel even better! I also have 2 lovely large cloth green bags but unfortunately I keep leaving them at home or, when I put them in the boot of my car I forget to take them out before going into the store! Is this an age things I wonder! Probably more honest to say I've always been a bit of an eejit!!! I do love you Tesco! Thumbs up!

Always clean and always busy but plenty of staff so no long wait at the check-out. Interesting architecture, a previous review suggested that it used to be a railway station - Nope! It was the Kayser Bondor until the 1980's when it was bought by Tesco. Kayser Bondor made ladies stockings - but switched to making parachutes during World War II. Wish that we had selection like this in the USA!!!!

I am now so thoroughly disappointed with your Huntingdon Store that I'm seriously consider moving my main shop elsewhere. For starters your shelves are not very well stocked these days and whoever had the idiotic idea to move your fantastic Customer Services Desk to checkout no. 9 should be fired! Most people won't go to that checkout because it's not permanently manned, thus making you think that there are No complaints anymore!! You couldn't be more wrong! Your staff are thoroughly fed up and dispirited, although you wouldn't think so, as they are unfailingly professional and friendly! Please, please give us our old store back! Mrs E Payne

I've been to a great many Tesco locations, most are similar to this one. The layouts vary widely between each location, beware of this. The vegetables are usually pretty bruised, if you want nicer vegetables you should search out an independent vendor.

Wow what a busy place this is!!!! Normally I don't like such large and crowded facilities, but I…read moredecided to check out this Tesco giant with a friend who loves to shop. We spent close to three hours in this Tesco. Luckily I was slightly buzzed from just leaving the pub so I didn't mind. They had quite a number of goods on clearance, pretty much it's a wild card. The sale section is towards the back where the toys and workout supplements are located. A lot of school supplies on sale. I was impressed at their music selection and that I could buy a three disc Ministry of Sound dance CD for £6. They have quite a large school supply section. Pretty much this Tesco carries just about everything. The prices I noticed were £0.30-£1.00 higher then my normal Tesco Store so I was shy about grocery shopping. I guess the bigger the store, they figured lets raise the price too. That is one thing I really didn't like were the higher prices. The bathrooms on the other hand stink to high heaven. I could smell them by Costa. If I were you Tesco I would invest in air freshener. You sell it, why can't you use it? Pretty much I rate this three hour shopping experience a solid three. Just a tip if you get your car washed while you shop take your valuables and your lighters with you. My friend spent £15 on her car wash and they guys 'picked up' three of her lighters, she was not pleased.

It's just off the busy A14, and is the biggest Tesco Extra I've seen - and they keep making it bigger! The latest addition is the second floor, which houses a (nearly) hmv sized entertainment section, a huge electricals dept, a large range of clothing, and a cafe. Then the downstairs is the biggest food store you've ever seen. A massive car park never seems to fill up, despite also being used by a small arcade of shops built into the side of the Tesco store. I love this place!
Asda on Coldham's Lane is huge!

It can get quite busy here quite often and sometimes you'll find yourself in the queue for a long time. Another reason that I like this Asda is that it stays open until midnight Monday's to Friday's which is helpful as a student for some reason! Also, if you are a student of ARU then you can get a free bus service here form the university or some of the other halls of residence and it will take you there and then you can wait for one to take you back! Asda has some great benefits.

The selection of clothes is quite good and is always affordable. The music and dvd selection is comprehensive and good value. There are often special values on in all departments of the shop. The food in the shop is probably slightly cheaper overall than tescos, and sainsburys, but the quality of food and the range is just as good. The tills are usually quite busy, but the staff are mostly quick avoid the older men if you are in a rush as they generally seem to be a bit slower!
