Tesco Extra

This is a really large tesco store with plenty of parking it sells everthing you could possibly want from a supermarket. It has a good range of electrical items and nice clothes. The food that you get from tescos is okay if you buy brand names but I really dont like there own name stuff. There are plenty of trolleys and the tills are usually well staffed the main problem with this tesco though is it is in the wrong place off a main road which isnt easy to get onto or off of it is too far to walk not near buses and when you drive in the traffice lights just after you come off the main road make it hell to get into there are alway queues of card trying to get in and out and there is only one small lane. It might sell everything you need but the hassle of trying to get to it is just too much bother

I use this Tesco now and again as it’s local, but I realy dont like it compared to my other Tesco’s.It seems to have very unfriendly staff and the store is not very welcoming. If you don’t drive it’s very inconvenient either. It’s situated off the Coast Road behind MFI and you have to walk up a long road off the main road to get to the store which is a bit of a bind. Not recommended if your’e having to walk carrying heavy shopping

This branch of Tescos is located on the busy Norham Road in North Shields. It is not terribly easy to access using public transport and even the road leading up to it is a long walk so not advisable if you have a lot of heavy items to carry. It offers a huge free car park though, so if you drive it is very handy. As it is a Tesco Extra store it had a huge range of products, such as electrical items, cosmetics and toiletries, stationery, entertainment (Cd’s, dvd’s, books, computer games, toys,) clothing, sports equipment and of course the usual food and drink. I’ve never found the staff to be particularly welcoming but they have been helpful on the few occasions when I’ve needed it.
