General Comments

Somerfield has gone way down in my estimation. What was once a pretty good, if cheapish store, is now a shambles. One drab competition after another, a loyalty card that doesn't really pay off, and over priced stock are the nail in the coffin for this store.
In my local, I can't even get frozen chicken fillets-something I'd imagine every store should have.
The staff have been awful since the store opened-a hangover from the superior Kwik Save it replaced.
There is no where to pack your bag-other than at the conveyor belt, where the next customer's goods are pelted towards you like cannon balls.
Avoid like the plague.

    Dear readers, somerfield stores is the font of retail standards driving customer service, fresh foods and maximising availability at every oppertunity to provide the best service possible to its customers. From my various visits with the stores i can promise you that the staff are fantastic, the food couldn't be fresher and overall, visits go without saying, fantastic, so my dear people if you are looking for advise or an opinion then visit your local store today..

    Update

    Somerfield had recently cut a few pennies here and there from some of their lines.
    Imagine my amazement when these lines returned to their original higher price last week!
    Somerfield-must try harder, much harder.

    I agree with your review completely. Obviously the Somerfield stores vary from place to place, but the ones we have nearby are not pleasant to shop in, and there are no real bargains to be found. The shelves are often empty, and there are always far more customers waiting to pay than tills open. I stopped shopping there some time ago, and by all accounts they still haven't improved.

    An update:

    The Somerfield near me has now changed to a Kwik Save - total disaster. I think Kwik Save's time is up.

    However, thanks to this, I visited another Somerfield, and I was amazed at how well stocked it was.

    Well done Somerfield. It looks like you've really pulled your socks up!
