Visited the café at Sainsbury’s today — mostly good service, except one member of incompetent staff — who took 5mins to process our tray of goodies and then a further 20mins to toast a tea cake! Made up for by another member of staff who apologised and offered a complimentary drink to compensate. Range in store is not as good as Sainsbury’s in other towns, but this is probably because of the high numbers of students, so a differnet stock profile is probably demanded.

This is the only supermarket in town, which gives it a edge over its competitors Morrisons and Tescos, but having said that Sainsbury’s is probably the better of the three. The shop floor is well laid out, and they always have lots of special offers that are easily visible. The checkouts are usually well staffed too, so the waiting times are normally not too bad. There is also a café serving food if you feel a bit peckish!

En plein centre ville, Sainsbury’s n’a pas à s’inquiéter de la concurrence. C’est le plus grand supermarché de Loughborough avant Tesco, qui est totalement excentré ! Par ailleurs, la nourriture est excellente, y compris dans la gamme à bas prix Sainsbury’s Basics, qui né s’encombre pas d’emballages recherchés mais offre des produits de réelle qualité à des prix minimalistes. Il y a des promotions régulières sur tous les types de produits, et on y trouvera tout le nécessaire vital, des légumes frais aux vins en passant par les plats préparés, les surgelés, les fleurs C’est LE magasin incontournable pour les étudiants.

Can’t really fault it– it’s the only supermarket in the centre of Loughborough(with Morrisons and Tescos both a mile out on either side of the town) so has a monopoly on the non-car driving student market. Prices are reasonable, and most things you need are available here. Tescos is huge so has a better selection, but you can’t beat the location of Sainsburys. Try going an hour before closing to pick up the best bargains!

The Sainsburys in Loughborough is fairly big. Well for one they sell everything you could want from a supermarket. But by anything you would want from a supermarket im talking about food so unlike Tescos they dont have a wide variety of CDs, DVDs, Games etc. They dont have much of a clothing line, just mainly back to school clothing. Overall i prefer Sainsbury foods compared to other places, the offers are equally as good as other stores and also equally expensive. The Sainsburys in Loughborough also has a café and a pharmacy. There are a good number of tills so you’re never waiting too long to be served and there is self checkout which i think is awesome.
i like sainsburys actually, have some good offers at times. And a good range of stuff. Sainsbury’s isn’t all bad — the one good thing I can say about it is that the staff on the checkouts are mostly nice and friendly. The fruit isnt always in the best condision but generally i do like the store. The quality of quite a lot of the food is pretty high. and i cant criticise much, although asda and tescos are cheaper.
