Rating des Ortes: 3 Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
As express stores go this one is average. It’s based in the garage in Billy Mill and as it’s at the corner next to a roundabout it is always busy. It can get quite chaotic at times. The actual store is very clean and bright but as the store also takes payment for petrol as well as shop goods it can have horrendous queues. I only use this store if I’m desperate if I’m honest as it does have a limited stock to offer. Also since the full sized Tesco supermarket is just along the road it’s just as easy to go there.

This Tesco Express is part of the Esso garage at Billy Mill. The garage always seems to be busy, having to queue for a pump or for a parking space. The pumps do not have a card payment option so you will also find that the queues instore can be a pain as well. The shop itself is very clean and is well stocked. There is always fresh fruit and vegetables incase you need to stock up. The staff are polite but stressed. You can see it in their faces that they wish the queues would go down. The most annoying thing about the store is that if you are just want to pay for petrol you still have to queue with the people who have shopping. And some have loads. They should dedicate one till to petrol only or change the pumps to the card type. All that said the petrol station is one of the cheapest in the area and has one of a limited number of cash points in the area.
