Grocery Stores in Colchester, Essex

“The best online Asian Supermarket I have come across!I'm a repeat customer and can't recommend them enough for choice, quality of goods, and very prompt delivery.Thank you Starry Supermarket!”

“Lovely Supermarket. Endless products.Great plants outside, always in season and lots of flowers for gifts.Quite an abundance.Today, I purchased some really bright and vibrant sunflowers, a delightful seasonal gift.Inside, there is a wonderful selection of produce. This supermarket goes beyond and above being your average local shop!Set in Elmstead Market , a lovely pretty village , Budgens offers a wealth of experience in retail and offers this little village a great village shop. We wandered around taking in a great offering of local produce by far and above adequate for daily needs.”

“My partner and I pop into here occasionally because despite being a small shop they have an enormous range of snacks, groceries and interesting things to peruse and purchase.Walking to/driving to Budgens on a whim is a fun treat. Prices are pretty good, staff are friendly and service is great. Everything always seems pretty well stocked. I just wish I lived a little bit closer!The street is quite wide and you can park on either side. It can get a little bit busy at peak times, but you can always park down the road a bit where it is even wider. Or in a side street.”

“Gel nails! OMG I have never had such excellent nail care before!! Gel nails normally just peel off after a few days but 11 days on and still look great! Thank you so much xx”

“Prices vary although the friendly , nothing is too much trouble staff always present as cheerful, efficient and always say have a good evening etc , even when I arrive about 1 minute before they close ,all the staff are a credit to the co op .Thank you”

“Looks good since the new refurbishment, spacious layout, no hassle self service checkouts we're a breeze, straight in and out, with help on hand if needed. Was a late night visit and still good choice of products, no empty shelves. Looked clean and tidy”

“Hello with [cost of living ] I started shopping at ALDI & I have saved money so if I were you I would try it you be shocked how good a bargain you get.”

“Hotel was basic but fine. Friendly staff, comfy room, god breakfast. Wifi cut out and was slow when it did work, this was premium wifi. Room was very cold when I entered and took three hours to get to a normal temperature. Shower had no hot water, warm and cold only.”

“Good parking. Store is always well stocked and very rarely crowded. Most tills are sefl service and we have never had to queue for a till. We are a club card holder which gives good deals and savings”

“I lived in Rowhedge for almost 5 years and the co-op is a real hub in the village. All the staff are lovely and would always say hello - and Peter the manager is really great and cares about what he does. You can have a laugh with most of the employees and it’s just a great little shop.”

“Not really an Iceland person but there’s this cashier guy who always seems to be working there every time I go and he’s so chatty and funny and banters with the customers, it makes my day better. Not sure what to say about his appearance other than I think he has brown hair but if you meet him you’ll know! However, I haven’t seen him the past few times I’ve been which is unusual because I used to see him every time. Wonder where he’s gone.”

“This Iceland is conveniently placed in Tollgate shopping area, which means if you time it right... you can park pretty much outside. It does however get incredibly busy at times with people visiting the shops. Similar to other Iceland shops I have been to, it isn't massive, but has most of the essentials you would need including non frozen items such as bread, milk, tissues (and tomato sauce if your my son!) etc. Have also used this Iceland for home delivery in the past, but never with much success - so tend to go instore instead.”

“Good choice of pizza. There own brands are very good. Good choice of Slimming World meals and snacks. Desserts are good and good choice of ice cream. Love to shop here for frozen goods, eg: frozen chips (excellent selection) pizza and Greg's pastries. Love Iceland.”

“Always has everything I need. Visited to buy son stuff for university digs and very good prices for items of same quality as other bigger branded stores. Only one member of staff on tills.”

“Good dated products, great prices, nectar card makes a huge difference and love the individual and personal products we get offers for! Parking is great for have a child also lots of spaces”

“Had the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE TODAY! Came unstuck with an ice problem, (ice machine broke at work) and desperately needed ALOT of bags of ice asap, and then I found Trevor! What an amazing man he is and came to my rescue.He took my trolley, went out to back stores and got all the bigger sacks of ice and then even helped me to my car and unloaded it all for me.Trevor is a legend!Thank you so much for your kind help and coming to my rescue.Very much appreciated”

“Convenient little supermarket to get a few small bits from. Can't tell if I like or dislike the fact there's a subway inside yet. The prices here are a little high compared to other supermarkets, but their bread and local foods section are high above other places. Wouldn't ever do a weekly shop here but its handy for grabbing a few smaller bits.”

“Friendly & busy local corner store. Bear in mind, parking can be tricky, as can maneuvering around the busy T-junction there.Amazon Locker and cash point outside.Good range our products but noticeably empty spaces on shelves post pandemic still...”

“Great staff in this co op 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They are always happy to help or have a quick chat which is nice. Unfortunately self checkouts have recently been installed, this is a real shame for a small village shop hence my 4 star rating.”

“Big and useful shop, well stocked with a decent range of goods. The carpark is big enough to pop in and park easily.Sunday afternoon there were long queues for the till, but two empty self service stations. Not sure why, maybe the locals like to pay in cash.”

“The owners are amazing. I asked them if was possible to have Super Bock (my favourite beer) and after a week they had it. That's what I call excellent costumer service ?”

“Friendly local store, newsagents and post office. Limited range of goods but ideal when you need those missing ingredients in a hurry. Parking not always easy but if you live in Kelvedon it is an easy walk from everywhere.”

“Amazing local store.Staff is always friendly, helpful and efficient. Shelves are always stocked and price tags are in place.Although I do not buy a lot most of times, as coop is pricier than supermarkets, there’s always decent range of nice groceries if you ran out of milk, need snacks or suddenly decided to bake. (They sell frozen mashed potatoes, cream slices, condensed milk and soured cream! As Eastern European I am very pleased.) Well, you can buy entire set of products to make Russian anthill cake or strawberry-whipped cream roulade. Which is good.They have Evri ParcelShop to return parcels. And you can get your parcel delivered to COOP as well. Which is very convenient.Security guy also kindly helped police investigation with CCTV and cash register records, when my partner’s card was stolen and used in store.I only wish bananas they sell would be more semi-green rather than brown more often.:)”

“This isn't a bad lidl store it just isn't great! I've been to this particular branch several times, and each time it's been quite busy but the staff wandering the floor don't seem to be able to open more than 1 till at a time. Otherwise, it's a great store with fantastic stock and always 'Lidl on price!Good size car park that has disabled parking spaces and parent and child parking spaces too.”

“Went to the carpark here it’s very small and card only. Some of the pumps were quite slow but it’s not too much of a detour if you’re on your way to Mersey island and I recommend filling up before you get on the island just incase. There is an Asda supermarket just next door incase you need anything. There was no staff present but it was very clean.”

“Deceptively large store for a village store. Limited car parking on the high street. There is a large free carpark to the rear of the store off Queens road.Store carriers a good variety of supermarket essentials. Baked goods, fruit and vegetable chillers, fridges and freezers for ready meals along with meats, fish, cheeses, yogurt and desserts.Costa coffee machine in the lobby along with hot snacks or cold snacks and sandwiches.House hold essentials available.Drinks isle for soft drinks, wines, beers, spirits, teas and coffee items.Sweets and biscuits along with savoury snacks also available.”

“We would personally like to thank James who works at the co op in dedham. He found us unable to use the app to be able to park in Dedham today. And paid on his own phone for us! We did get change and pop into shop and gave him it back. But what a remarkable young man James is. Total strangers and he thought nothing of helping us. Thankyou James. You absolutely wonderful young man. Please pass this on to him. With much thanks. You are so lucky to have James. Mr and mrs Hawes.”

“Very handy shop in this part of town. Has a small car park and is open long hours. Lots of fresh, chilled and frozen produce plus drinks, newspapers, cash machine and everything you'd expect in a mini supermarket. Please visit the charity shop next door to support the local hospice.”
