I love Tesco's! If you are looking for decently priced, actually CHEAP things according to UK…read morestandards, come to tescos. They have a variety of fresh food/produce as well as some frozen goodies. You can buy household things as well. I always come here to grocery shop because it's so close to Ealing Broadway tube, and is just a bus ride from my flat. The cashiers are always very polite and will greet you when it's your turn. I thought it was kinda weird that you had bag your own items though, we don't do that in the US. But yeah, I basically pick up everything food related here.

I must be part of some strange, secret, Ealing groupthink, because whenever I decide to go to this…read morestore, it seems as though every other resident of Ealing has decided to go there as well! Fortunately it's one of the larger Metros and there are a lot of tills and a fast moving self-service till section. It has the all the usual Tesco stuff: a sandwich section by the door for lunchtimers in a hurry, a deli counter, a bakery (I recommend the walnut bread), a whole aisle of alcohol and a CD/DVD corner. You either like Tesco or you don't. I do.

I don't like Tescos in general, but I'm definitely not a fan of this one. Sure, i found everything…read moreI needed, but my goodness the checkout counter woman was rude. Not because she ID'ed me and my friend (we're 26 and 27 respectively), she pretty much threw our stuff down the checkout and rolled her eyes when we brought our own bags. There was nothing we could do right with this woman. We were perfectly friendly but she couldn't be bothered. We were in a great mood (getting ready to cook dinner for friends), but she didn't even so much as look at us unless it was to glare. Not impressed. At least in Asda they say hello.

Inside the supermarket, there is a chemist and they are of good advice (i think the chemist was actually very worried for me when i went to see him last.

It has a huge car park with plenty of disabled bays and a separate car park for families.

There are some fairly glaring gaps in the produce on offer (where the feck is the spinach?!), but overall there's a pretty good selection including an in-store bakery, fruit and veg, dairy, alcohol, and a small home supplies section. The store is reasonably well laid-out, although it gets particularly crammed at busier times (i.e. 6-8pm on weekdays). That said, I've never had a long wait at the checkouts. The convenience of this store has made it my new go-to, and I'm pretty sure it'll stay that way for a while.

The stock range is slighter bigger than the one right by my house, it's squeaky clean and the staff are super friendly. This branch was super quiet atfirst but has quickly become fairly busy...

I've only used this small Tesco a few times, when going to and from Wimbledon Common. It would be…read moreeasy to miss, as it is not really visible going up Wimbledon Hill Road. It's quite small and the choice of groceries is relatively limited. There are only a couple of self-service tills, and a couple of staffed tills. So fine for a top-up shop, but not really sufficient for a weekly shop.

In the past I've had very good experiences here with helpful staff members finding and/or enquiring about having/ordering particular items. Very big for the usual size of Waitrose in London. Also handy for grabbing a bit of a snack before heading upstairs to the cinema! ;)

This one is forever improving, they have…read moreincreased the number of self-service tills in the shop but not decreased the amount of staff on checkouts, alongside the staff stationed near to those self-service check outs. They used to have a independent flower stall inside but decided the space would better serve a trolley park... They have the obligatory coffee stop, which I have never used so can't comment on. They stock all you expect to see in a Sainsburys, they have recently added a petrol station onsite which is useful as no longer will you have to drive to Purley or Bell Green to redeem the vouchers you get which makes petrol slightly more affordable. The thing to be aware of with this Sainsburys is that it is shares a site with Crystal Palace FC (come on you Eagles). So on match days the store closes early as the car park is over run with cars from supporters from both sides, they will generally close an hour or so before kick off and open back a similar time after it. They have also installed a time limit on using the car park, it's an automated system which reads you license plate as you drive in and tells you how long you can stay for free. I have no idea what happens if you stay over this...apart from some kind of fine I guess. Also on a Sunday be aware that whilst they open at 10am you cannot purchase anything before 11am.

My late Mum and I enjoyed shopping here together and it is disabled and elderly friendly. It is also calm, and no tinned music, but they do have festive music at Christmas.
