Not too big, not too small, and okay sized car park and they do online shopping and delivery too. I still think Tesco could lower their prices a little bit. The shelves have always been well stocked when I've been in. Cash points outside. read more

This is an excellent farm shop situated in the centre of Walsingham village…read more The shop is open seven days a week, serving fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh cheeses, and high-end groceries. These include a a range of locally-made ice creams, preserves, fruit juices and bakery products, as well as unusual cooking ingredients. (It's the first time I've seen black salt on sale.) There's a delicatessen counter and a large butchers within the shop - the latter doing a roaring trade on our visit. It's a bit pricey but it's the quality and local sourcing you're paying for. It's a perfect place to buy gifts for friends and family, if they like good produce. Staff and knowledgeable and friendly. There's a parking area at the front. Highly recommended.
From the owner: Fine Norfolk produce. Local meats and home cooked pies, pasties, ready meals and more.read more

Although it is quite a small store it stocks all the essentials and has a decent size carpark but it can often be crowded and had to find a space, especially in the summer. During the winter there is very rarely a queue however during the summer months there are often queues and they can quite often run out of products. The store is located very close to the town centre so it is in a very handy location. Good for a top-up shop but I would find it hard to do my full weekly / monthly shop here.
Letley's is situated at the top of Staithe street and is the biggest and best supermarket in town…read more It had a bit of a face-lift a while ago and this has improved its layout. It looks quite small from the outside but the range of goods it covers is pretty impressive for its size, fresh fruit and veg, a large beer and wine section (with a decent selection of bottled real ales), a frozen food section, chilled foods etc and a whole host of tinned food, household products and pet food. There's also a decent magazine and newspaper section too. They also do cashback (up to £50) which is very handy as the local cashpoint (the only one in Wells) often seems to be out of money - particularly in peak holiday season. Prices are very good, service from one of the four tills is swift and the staff are friendly and helpful.

To the North of the City on the ring road, you can find Asda - this is a sizeable store, offering…read morean excellent range of George Clothing for men, women and children at very good prices. Food is a combination of branded goods and asda's cheaper ranges - good for downgrading in the present credit crisis! Fruit and Veg is generally quite good but if you get there late in the day you will be limited for choice. There is also a good range of toiletries and household goods at very reasonable prices. Later in the evening they reduce a lot of bread and fresh food - ideal for making those pennies go even further. Queues are often long, but staff are friendly and helpful.

But late night visits often mean a second shopping trip needs to be planned to get all the fruit and veg you couldn't get the first time. And the car park is consistently rammed. Getting a space in the area down by the icerink is fine, but trying to get a full trolley down the slope that leads there has probably resulted in more than one insurance claim
I went in this supermarket on Friday 1st of August to do our monthly shop, we used the scan as we…read morego scanner which we always have done with no problems in the past apart from being checked 3 times out of 5 visits which is annoying but always with no problems. So we do our shop which came to £333 get too the checkout and as expected get a message saying to call a member of staff to check our shopping. This member of staff turns up and proceeds to rifle through our shopping checking i believe 65 items,, they get to the 65th item and tell us that we hadn't scanned a packet of doughnuts so they would have to check every single item in our trolley .We then spent roughly half an hour whilst every single item was took out of our trolley and spread over the service desk ,in bags on the floor, bags in the trolley and an on an adjacent unsed till.There was hardly any consideration for the fact they were handling our food and it didn't appear to matter if the food was fragile or not the only concern of the member of staff was to find if we had (stolen) ((because that was how we were made to feel)) anything else.I also noted the security guard had not intervened but had moved closer so he was between us and the exit,coincidence maybe but i certainly wasn't going to run through him with my bag of doughnuts..Anyway after being embarrassed for about half an hour we were finally told everything was in order and we could proceed to pay for our shopping but before we did this i heard the member of staff mumbled something to my wife which i didn't quite hear but here comes the money shot,,,,,,,,,They said "oh it was my mistake the doughnuts had been scanned after all ".Its probably a good job i didn't hear as i was seriously pissed off by this point as you can imagine.Suffice to say i will NEVER use a scanner in Blue Boar Tesco again and just be warned if you make a mistake and miss an item or the staff member makes a mistake you are going to have to stand there and be made to feel like a shoplifter even if you are as straight as the day is long like myself...PS If Tesco dispute my version im sure the cameras would have been watching and i have the till receipt with the doughnuts on it to prove my story is true.

More like a Wal-Mart Supercenter, though more focused on food and groceries but also clothing, electronics, pharmacy and housewares. The produce section is quite large and very fresh, the grocery sections have tons and tons of choices, ranging from Tesco generics as well as many different flavors of name brands, the frozen section is three aisles of freezers and bunkers. Very large parking lot with an easy to access petrol ("gas" in American) station at the perimeter. Prices are quite competitive with Asda and Morrison's and I think are also lower than Waitrose. Many tills ("registers") are always open and I've not seen more than one or two people waiting, even at the busy times. There are also two groups of self-service checkouts. All told, a positive shopping experience.

Fine to pop in an just buy some bits and bobs, but not much use if you want to do a bigger shop. Has a lottery machine and also sells cigarettes etc. It does not have any self serve terminals. It has a cash machine, and is next to a chemists, pub, chip shop, and chinese takeaway. It can sometime be a bit difficult to park if you go at a time when it is busy. Open everyday between 7am and 11pm.

They also stock small electrical items, entertainment goods and an array of children's toys at reasonable prices. I am often stocking up for presents for children's parties from here. The clothing too is stylish yet affordable and I often find I have an item or two in with my groceries! There is a pharmacy in store too which saves a separate trip elsewhere to pick up prescriptions. Staff are very helpful and polite and I have never had any problems returning items to customer services. If you need a break from all the shopping there is a cafe area offering a selection of meals and light snacks. They also have a commitment to making sure their food and drink is fairtrade and organic, as far as is possible, which is all for the good! There is a petrol station on site too. The only downside I would say is the carpark. It has been improved slightly to what it was a few years ago but I still find it quite a confusing system to navigate in and out of. Plus, the traffic lights to get in or out of the store do not help matters. However, it is worth making the trip. In it's favour the store hardly ever feels cramped and busy and shopping there is an pleasurable experience.

Has a lottery machine if you are looking to get your weekly ticket. The staff are usually friendly and polite and you don't usually have to queue up for very long. One of the bonuses you get with this Tesco is that it has got an in store Post Office which is really handy. It doesn't do car tax or anything major like that, but is great for posting things / paying bills etc. The Tesco also has a cash machine, and is next to a pub, chip shop and chinese takeaway.

They have everything you could ever want... all the special edition crisps (chips to us Americans), a whole wall of biscuits and digestives, tons of European candies you'll never find in America, and prepared food that anyone would like. I grabbed a tasty Peking duck wrap for lunch and it was only 5 pounds or something. Huge parking lot... this is like a Walmart/Safeway combined. It's huge but I didn't get a Costco vibe here. No pretentiousness either. If you're in the Wymondham/Hethel area, stop by this Waitrose!
