I shop here sometimes because it?s close. That?s mostly its only redeeming value. Very cheap products with very expensive price tags. The staff are generally nice though.

I use this place daily at least twice, and have yet to come across an issue besides stock allocation and deals still being as advertised. So I can see why it would bother people, losing 50p doesn't bother me but 40x and it starts to stick in my craw.Pros: Decent store. Selection is well varied but is mostly for cupboard foods, drinks, toiletries and snacks. Staff are great, always friendly. Hours are also amazing, as someone with insomnia a shop being open within a mile until 11pm is a god send.New management seem good too, friendly and always asking how my day is. No complaints about staff or hygiene in the business.Cons: Like a good 70% of the deals aren't working and I have no idea how the meal deals work, I picked items with stickers attached to them saying ''I'm in the meal deal'', only for them to not be. If the prices and dates etc are kept on top of, then there's no complaints really. It's a little pricier than other places, but consider it's also cheaper in some aspects, like tobacco and imported goods are cheaper than corner shops. European imported items work out cheaper than specialist Euro food shops.

This is a great store. I have met the manager Caroline who I have to give a shout out to. She is a lovely lady who is always really helpful to both customers and her staff.

My overall experience at SPAR is great, all the staff members are amazing and I usually leave very happy. The only issue is the manager. I?ve made a complaint via email in the past and have had several experiences in store where she has spoken to staff members in an inappropriate and unprofessional manner. One of my visits I witnessed the manager speak to a member of staff in a really unpleasant way which made me very uncomfortable, especially because I?ve had really lovely interactions with the lady. I hadn?t seen this lady for a few days, so I asked about her and have found out that she left due to this situation. Im disappointed and a bit worried as this is a pattern that will make the atmosphere in store unwelcoming for staff and customers.

They are advertising for jobs here but as a former employee I urge people not to apply here, as my time here was awful because of the manager Caroline. She bullied me when I was here and others have left too because of the same reason. The way she treats and talks to her staff is disgusting. One of the worse jobs I have had.

I have to give a 2 star rating because this is a good shop and has friendly staff but it is let down by the manager Caroline and the way she's talks to her staff is appalling. I've been in the shop several times and heard the why she talks to them and it makes me feel uncomfortable. As a customer if I see she is there I go else where.

I entered the store to be told incredibly rudely, be VERY QUICK, we're shutting now. If i'd of been told sorry we're now closing I wouldn't of had an issue but there was no need for the incredibly rude treatment. Wont bother going back again.

Good opening hours and fine for a pint of milk but very poor quality meat and general food produce. Cheap products at a premium price with very little choice.

I have lost count the number of times I have been overcharged at the Norwich Aylsham Road store. The ticket prices differ to what you are charged on the till. I just told the cashier the wine I bought was £5.50 and that is what the ticket price said and she still charged me £6. Definitely just going to pop to Aldi in future
