This Spar shop is the main newsagents / shop serving BP's Sudden Service Station, which is Service Station which includes a drive-thru Starbucks and then this SPAR building, which inside of it includes a Starbucks coffee machine and Subway store.
The store is a decent size, of course selling petrol with the BP garage attached, hence it also accepts Nectar cards.
The staff here really didn't seem helpful or friendly at all, which was a real shame.
The items inside the store were slightly overpriced such as the drinks, there was a good, large selection of beverages in the fridge, however, some of which were slightly overpriced, mainly down to the location, of course being in a garage/service station.
Inside, it is okay, perhaps just average, it doesn't seem to have had any refurb or modernisation, in the past few years which is also a shame.
I'm struggling to add anything else, this store is okay and it is open 24-7 but due to some issues with the service, overall feel of the store and pricing I sadly feel this SPAR branch on Manchester New Road, deserves just two stars. read more
