Store Layout & Accessibility

Pros:

  • "Good shop with friendly staff. Plenty of disabled parking bays and a totally wheelchair friendly shop all on a flat level."
  • "Large free car park - although signs up saying charges after 2 hours, possibly due to Alder Hey Hospital nearby."
  • "Roomy Isles with plenty of items to select."
  • "Lovely store layout with nice wide aisles, so felt safe shopping there."

Cons:

  • "Parking is ill planned - You end up walking a fair distance to get to the store (even in parent and child) which is not very well thought out."
  • "Can I ask what is happening to the store. It's a huge big untidy mess."
  • "But they need to do something about the smokers at the entrance... choosing your carrots in a haze of cigarette smoke is not a great experience!"
  • "No tills on very poorly managed. Massive fire hazards with blocked Isles and crowds of people with shopping waiting."
  • "Queue is very big in car park and not fast at all, only went to pick up one item I had already paid for from argos, you shouldn't have to queue if your collecting from argos there should be a different queue."
  • "Needed to collect an item from Argos, huge queue around carpark told I needed to join queue. Easier if Argos had staff member at front to do collection."
  • "The place was busy, queues at the tills were massive."

Product Selection & Quality

Pros:

  • "Great place. Great people. Great products and a chilled out atmosphere when shopping."
  • "Always go here, even though Tescos is just over the road from where I live. Like the quality and range of food. Always think the meat tastes way better here than in other supermarkets."
  • "Selection and prices improved quite a bit."
  • "Good for a big weekly shop. Always has everything I need."
  • "Good range of products, given its size. Nice separate baby change with private toilet and feeding chair."
  • "I can always get the products I want, especially all the herbs & spices I need. One of the very few places I can buy Tahini, for when I'm cooking Greek dishes."
  • "Great selection of products and services, petrol station, Argos, Lloyds pharmacy, and a large clean n tidy cafe serving a wide variety of meals & snacks, these are among the positive points."

Cons:

  • "The fruit stall is often half empty, without the range of exotic fruit that I used to enjoy."
  • "Prices have risen as expected, but I have noticed that in this store that many of the pricier items do not appear to have price tickets on the shelves."
  • "Chicken/Meats - Typically poorly stocked versus other Sainsbury stores."
  • "Very disappointed with our visit. No hand alcohol, the one in the shop were empty, no disinfectant spray for the trolleys or basket."
  • "We went to this shop for specific products, none on the shelves, the assistant that we seen could not help us."
  • "Just an observation, but I've noticed missing price tickets here a lot lately and it always seems to be for the larger item."
  • "Worst supermarket in Liverpool, always out of stock of goods on offer."

Shopping Experience & Convenience

Pros:

  • "Used click and collect for the second time. So much easier than shopping in store and times were available for collection next day each time I shopped so no long delays waiting for your shopping."
  • "Very good store, not been in for 16 years and glad I did. Fantastic range of food, clothes and everything else, with some great prices."
  • "They also sell Valerie pattisier there which are worth the trip in itself..."
