Asda in Peterborough

Very scruffy store. Empty boxes on shelves stock untidy looks like store needs sort out. Really disappointed will shop elsewhere in future.

Very disappointed. Asda George supposed to shut at 8pm. Went at 7.40pm all doors locked and shut. Lost out out customers buying items till 8pm. Not sure if they just wanted to go home early but worked in retails and have to shut shops at the correct time 8pm. Not sure if they do this just to get out of leaving later and leave early instead of being open. No customer service . Disappointed as wasted journey and petrol costs.

No worries on my visit very good on value and goods 👌

Its ok but because its in the city center expect to see shady individuals and beggars

Not the best of managed ASDA stores I have ever visited. Displays are often is a confusing state and today they didn't even have carrier bags. I abandoned my shopping and left the store. One of competitors got my business instead.

(A year ago 2023) One of the worst supermarket in town. Only two of the seven toilets were working, and they were filthy. The shelves were disorganised and messy. There was scarcely any staff on hand to assist. When I finally found one, he shrugged and said, "I have no idea where the item was." He continued doing whatever he was doing without trying to assist. (Today: 16 March 2024) Went back to the store a year later. The last photo was taken today. The toilets facilities have improved but no difference to food display.

The cafe wasn't that busy,but needs to wait 1hour to get your food... It's too long ,especially for kids. It's not the first time. I think store need to sort it out with putting more staff on the shift..

It's the best place i've ever seen in my whole shopping

Not sure what happened to my last review about Asda but here is a replacement. Went yesterday stock inside ok but it’s the location and atmosphere that is depressing. Always loads of litter blowing and usually begging as you walk in. Upon exit had person who was kicking in alley ask for cigarettes getting real close to me. I never feel safe in this area just get in out don’t speak to anyone and get your shopping. Security of store need to patrol grounds outside more and get the Police to make experience more pleasant. Broken cycle locks outside know someone who had electric cycle stolen. Used the cafe few times ok but basic last time went upstairs Male toilet out of action. Cheep food but only shop here if I don’t have any other choice.

Absolutely disgusting. Literally food spilling out everywhere, out of stock of most items. Wouldn't shop there if you paid me. No standards

Went to the store on Tuesday morning I was not impressed. There was food trolleys everywhere in the Isles. The stuff were very unfriendly. There was only one till for superstore open people were queueing halfway down the lsles to pay for the shopping me and my wife would never return to the shop again

Absolutely superb shop lovely staff and very nice and clean cafè great selection of toys but witnessed a citizens arrest last Friday

Dirty floors and whole shop looks messy, very cold no heating on., will not be back .

Used they cafe. Still not able to do toasted tea cake as machine not working. This machine has not worked for more than a year. Not very good customer service.

I just got bread from Asda this the last time I’m go there , and I just eat some of them then seee it that’s poison , any thing happens to me, you guys get responsibility

Your staff at the Peterborough branch are freezing. Especially the women on the cigarette counter. It's not ok. Please do better.

Does anyone take note of comments. No I don't think so.Not enough tills open. Needs more staff. Certainly going down hill.

Improved Service Experience at Asda Peterborough Superstore I previously left a review regarding the extended wait times for Uber Eats collections at the Asda Peterborough Superstore. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a prompt response from the store acknowledging my concern and assuring me that my feedback would be used for improvements. This immediate attention to customer feedback exemplifies the store's commitment to providing a high-quality service for its customers. I have since experienced a significant improvement in the collection process. I've noticed that collections are now made at the dedicated Click and Collect point, rather than at the Customer Service desk. This adjustment has led to a smoother, more efficient service with noticeably shorter wait times. I appreciate the store's swift action in addressing my concern, and it's clear that they value their customers' experience. The staff at Asda Peterborough Superstore have been consistently helpful and friendly, helping to create a pleasant shopping environment at all times. Their proactive response to my previous review illustrates their dedication to customer satisfaction. I would like to thank Asda Peterborough Superstore for their exceptional service and for taking on board customer feedback to improve their operations. I am happy to change my rating to a positive one and look forward to a continued good service. Keep up the great work!

Absolutely terrible service, the slowest person on customer service desk, staff standing around not interested in the queue of people waiting, 20mins for me to be served and only had 3 customers in front 10 behind me waiting. Terrible

Walked in at 6PM on Friday and it’s like an apocalypse just took place. Products fallen off the shelves, empty boxes everywhere, abandoned trolleys, abandoned cages, mess all over the floor and more importantly, no staff to be seen. I order online from this place but I am shocked at the state of the store and the supervisors and management seem reluctant to set the standards…

great stock but terrible staff/shopkeepers. been there with my mum on 20th nov and she waited a long time, about 10-15 minutes, for her scan & go shopping to be checked out, especially one member of staff literally put the £25 gilette razors aside and my mum nearly forgot to put them back in the cart. just wow.

Potatoes brown food near end of life

Went in for lunch nearly all food removed from menu..went to toilets absolutely disgusting and filthy..needed baby changing facilities had go back downstairs when we eventually found the place they too were in a disgusting state all nappy bins very full smelt very bad unit to lay baby on was filthy never seen anything so unhygienic.

Came in at 5pm for some hot quick food, got a steak and potatoe bake and spicy chicken strips, they were rock hard! Over 6hours old in the heat? Your not aloud to hot gold chicken or most things that long at the temp where bacteria can breed ‼️ I’ve even seen chicken cooked at 10am still there at 10pm

Busy all the time... parking is full and difficult to find trolly. Toilets upstairs...

We visited the Asda Peterborough Superstore a few times as we needed to buy a few things. The shop itself is massive and has two large entrances and there is a good range of food and drinks here. I do think that it's a little on the tired side and it feels like it is stuck in time and could do with a lick of paint. The staff are lively and they have both manned checkouts as well as self-checkouts. There was one time I came here to buy gin and I accidentally dropped the glass bottle and it caused a spill but the staff were quick to fix the situation and I was able to get a new bottle quickly. Their customer service is great here and I would recommend it if you're in the area.

11 months ago I gave 1 star but went to Asda on Friday and completely changed my opinion. Found staff very helpful and with a good attitude towards customers. This time I am giving a 5 star review ..... Keep it like that Asda..

We had just visited and bought few urgently needed supplies to cook dinner and did a self check out, made payment and collected our receipt but on getting to the door, the buzzer went off twice. A staff came over to check our evidence of payment and it was quite embarrassing. It obviously looked like we were selected to set off the buzzer because of our skin colour. My family and I will never visit Asda Peterborough even if it’s the last supermarket on earth. I will rate their service at no star, and I am being extremely generous.

This is a great place to get all your household things at once.. lot of collection is there and the price is also low

This review is for the in house meat store Haji Baba. Most of the raw chicken they are selling has issues. I bought chicken breast cubes and kept it in the freezer. The next day before the expiry date its started to smell .It has a strong sulphur like smell. I had to trash it.

Oven is broken for over a year! My 5 year old wanted to go there once after we did our grocery shopping, and tried the chicken nuggets. Now almost every week, he asks us to go there for the chicken nuggets, but "unfortunately" the oven is broken, there's no nuggets or fish fingers... AMAZINGLY THERE'S PIZZA!!! I understand that, because kids eat for £1 and electricity isn't cheap, but wife and I also planned to eat there! We've eaten there against my will several times, but today we just left. That first time we went to their cafe we had spent over £200 in shopping. Almost 2 full months later received a parking ticket because I was there for too long... For years we did our shopping there, after that we just walked BUT ONLY TO THE CAFÉ BECAUSE MY SON KEEPS ASKING

after waiting in the que for 35 minutes my frozen items(ice cream)was melted and had to throw it away ,,they refuse to open more than one till no matter if the que is huge and they try and force you to use self service ,then you are lucky if they have carrier bags who ever is managing this store needs sacking this has gone on for over a year in this store

Long que at customer service and only one lady dealing with all this. Had to wait long to get to counter. Should have more people at desk to deal with especially over the weekend.

very rude staff they say happy to help i ask something to a lady and she been very rude to me .they need some train tha staff how to talk

Big mall to shop grocery and meat beers

The worst Asda and George that I’ve ever been in. In fact the whole shopping centre needs closing down. Litter and beggars everywhere.

Received a 'penalty' notice for overstaying in the car park for the full amount from your appointed car park con-men, all because I had extra shopping and the first letter didn't arrive. The signage is extremely poor and not comparable with other nearby car parks. Truth is that i'll never spend another penny at Asda but I will continue to use your free dirty toilets and park in your car park for free. You don't buy customers by shafting them. Molly, I have contacted on Facebook but no reply. The saga continues. No I can't pop into my local store as I no longer have a receipt. If the staff had been more helpful on the day it happened instead of saying it was nothing to do with them. You are trying to cause me stress whilst at the same time making it look like you care. You're just playing for time until they issue me with a court summons!

It’s an Asda, same as all the others

Superstore dont have or dont see cold alcohol drinks

I did shopping at asda and tried to… I did shopping at asda and tried to open my app. The app has been updated so lost my password after fiddling about 30 mins to reset my password finally I managed to open my asda rewards app. Went to customer service to add points on to my app and was told I have to return all items and wait for refund to my account and then will have re purchase same items so I can get points. What a farce so I lost points due to asda update and ther software is so disgusting. WITH TESCO is it so easy take your recipet to desk and easily add points. What asda is doing is a con so I have deleted app and won't be shopping again in asda .Please people beware asda reward app is hoax and a scam. STAY AWAY FROM ASDA REWWRDS APP

Asda is a good supermarket but not this one. Someone needs to move the tramps on from outside the entrance and the staff here need to take a little more pride in their work. I still shop here but not regularly.

OK shoppe, sometimes untidy, too many pickers on the shop floor, not enough staff..

Not toilet clean and realy bad service

Bad shop and really need improving the quality of the customer service team work and the team of the security.

What ever you need in your daily life , you will get it here. From clothing to food, medicine, makeup kits everything. It also has indian grocery like rice, dal, utensils, room decorations item, plant

Visited yesterday but after seeing the rubbish all over the car park and general cleanliness decided to go elsewhere

Huge Asda with two entrances. Place could be a bit cleaner, but has a large variety of choices for everything. For Americans, this place relates to Wal-Mart or Target. Pricing is fair, also if an American huge variety of breads and biscuits. They do offer self scan, and offer variety of payment options, bring your own bag

Apparently signs are Clearly visible ... 70 GBP parking charges..what a joke... I'm sure many ppl got into this trap.

Busy. They've definitely outgrown the store because on certain days it looks like the place has been ransacked and the shelves are empty.

Wow, what a disgusting store. The toilets are the worst toilets I’ve ever seen absolutely disgusting. The cafe is vile, and gave my son an upset stomach. Stock everywhere. Just generally disgusting.

Toilets disgusting not even one was working and not clean at all

Very helpful shopfloor employees

Even one star is too much. I nipped in to use the toilets whilst shopping. The toilets were filthy, doors hanging off. Completely unusable.

Great value for money was able to get get everything I needed and more for very good prices plus I used my asda reward card and got money back

Don't buy halal meat, last week I brought meat and bones from them, they were smelling so bad . Please try to keep fresh meat but I am not gonna buy anymore to risk my life.

What a horrible, horrible place to shop. Total chaos at the till areas, staff are extremely rude and obtuse.

The lady in the kitchen was all by herself and was quite clearly stressed as she had alot of ordered to make. Really unfair to her. Management needs to do better, and as someone who works in that industry thought it was shocking that you put her in that situation.

Incredibly under staffed, far too long at tills.

In many places MUCH more expensive than Tesco, definitely not cheap as their ads would suggest. Full of unhygienic people coughing and spluttering everywhere, staff and customers alike, no covering up their mouth or using tissue/sleeve. (and I caught a really bad cold / genuinely believe in there due to this). Lots of people standing in aisles yapping loudly in their mother tongues and reluctant to move out of the way when politely asked. (IE "excuse me please") Finally got to a checkout, and the woman was THE most miserable person I have ever met. Rammed my shopping through with no consideration, did not crack a smile, and no please or thank you during payment. What a HORRIBLE experience, I shall never shop in Rivergate ASDA again.

No baskets at entrance. Discriminates against the disabled. I am partially sighted, hence can't drive, so relies on public transport. Therefore I am limited to how much I can carry. There are too many of these multi buy discounts where it's cheaper per item if you buy more than one. For example, I needed some orange juice. It was £1.70 for one or £3 for two. Well, I don't want two, nor would I be able to carry two with other items I want. I refuse to buy something from these so called deals. Why should I have to pay more for one because of my disability. I will be writing to my MP about this. Shouldn't be legal. Another example, Heinz soup, 5 for £6. Can't remember how much they are individually. Plus many other items, like fresh meat. Didn't buy hardly anything. Aldi or Lidl don't do these 'pay more for one than three' deals. Won't be shopping here again. I only popped in as I was in the area. Usually shop at Aldi closest to me, and will continue to do so.

What an epic fail!!! One hour after open time, tills are not open! I must have been shopping for 10 minutes and waited another 5 at the tills, wondering why no till is open, when I heard the first announcement, said in a totally rushed manner, that tills weren't opening until 11am, which was in about 10 minutes. There were probably 50 people waiting, some started leaving their stuff and walking out angry at the totally impudent inability of ASDA Peterborough management to deal with the situation. ASDA as a company must be absolutely brain-dead to allow such incompetent people ruin their reputation like that, for there is absolutely no reason valid enough to excuse opening a shop without opening the tills for ONE HOUR, and meanwhile some staff members loitering there in plain sight not even trying to let customers through (or give information). The definition of time-wasters. In times of massive unemployment, there is no excuse being short-staffed and I hope the useless staff are got rid of asap, for the sake of the customers, the business, the Universe and everything else.

I am a disabled person who is never able to park close enough to the store. Your disabled parking is always taken up by people without blue badges and no one is monitoring this. I have been coming to you for years and am being forced now to change to another store who is able to offer better facilities and parking for my condition.

Generally helpful, cheerful staff. Great range of products at good prices. Only place I know that sell Super King size bedding. Easy to park

Ridiculous! They let you in the store, but the tills won’t open until certain time. Products are over the place, you won’t pass pickers and there’s hardly anything left if you go an hour after opening. If other branches can manage it, why can’t you? You’ve lost anonother customer…

Another poor review for here unfortunately. Came in to get some items for a friend that were Asda specific and just wow. I read some of the other reviews and thought they were feeling a bit harsh but I can totally agree! 'The great unwashed' is a spot on comment by one - honestly, the odour from some of the staff here was unbelievable (not a lot you can do about the consumers!) After asking one for help I really was put off asking again for more than one reason. It's Saturday and there are just TWO manned tills open - the rest is self service = queues going up the aisles and no more opening. As for sense of urgency, that's close to zero. It's not a library peeps, it's a supermarket and nobody should be waiting so long in a queue to pay!

Appalling!!! They put a hold on my money and cancelled my order not once but several times .I never use them again

This store has to be the worst store I have ever shopped in, not just ASDA, that’s any store, ever! The entire building could be sold as a zombie apocalypse experience. The scene is set every time I go in there. The cast is always present, made up of the staff and Peterborough’s great unwashed - Barren shelves at all times of day, staff dribbling at the door as shoplifters flee with stolen Vodka. The homeless persons that work on rotating shifts greet you at the door, eyeing up anything you have managed to cobble together that the looters have left behind as you go. ASDA, you should be ashamed of your Peterborough store or at least award us shoppers with a selection of weapons on entry, so we at least stand a chance of survival.

Great shop for everything including the pharmacy. Clean and tidy the staff are polite and helpful even the security staff have kind manner.

So Asda now say we close at 5?? This isn’t true as I was turned away being told we are closed madam and when I looked at my phone 16:47 I said thought you closed at 17:00 now he said yes that’s right people are going to the tills now , you can’t come in. REALLY ! Why say 17:00 I wasted my time to nip there for cat litter…in the rain too.

Toilets were absolutely disgusting would have waited but was to desperate no toilet roll in any toilet a women in front of me had to ask a man to get her some from the male toilets and was messy everywhere.according to my brother the male toilets had no doors absolutely a disgrace

lovely man called Callum who helped us today came in at 7am for prime (because yesterday he said they’ll have it today ) thank god they had it today he went in the back and managed to get us 2 bottles thanks

Wide range of products at affordable prices better then most supermarkets

Grocery collection fast and always with very kind personal shoppers! Thank you!

Always a busy supermarket in the town center and has a taxi rank outside

Every time I have visited this store it is messy and filthy everywhere, from the shop to the toilets. Never enough staff to serve. Never come here it is a dump.

I took my dad yesterday for the £1 soup deal for the over 60s in your cafe and what a wonderful idea it is. We were served by the lovely Vanessa who is a credit to your store. My dad thoroughly enjoyed his soup. Thank you Asda and thank you Vanessa.

Went to store today. Cleaners must have had a week off because accessible toilet was covered in dust and dirt. We got some cans off shelf and they were also covered in dirt. One point tried to go down aisle to be met by 3 members of staff chatting whilst the cages they had were blocking most the aisle. Another member of staff was struggling to get past with Pallet but they continued to gossip. I didnt have much room to get my wheelchair through. The staff looked at me and carried on chatting. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED. Sort it out Asda. Check inshore cctv @16.00 near bakery to find the culprits.

My shopping never arrived after 2 hours I had given up waiting.spending nearly a hundred pounds, and living in supported accommodation i am now left with no shopping now. No one contacted me to notify me either and instead I have had to try and track it down myself to see what's going on even though I work full time and had to get it delivered in the first place due to my busy work schedule. This was my first time using this service as I thought it would have been easier for me, and it was absolutely terrible. Complete waste of time and money, not to mention i couldn't find much help with customer services and im still waiting on an update, in the meantime all my money has been taken but products not received and now i have to go without . asda please sort your service out :/ 🙄👌

It's a supermarket. I tend to go there for specific items it is not where I do my shopping in general. I have noticed that their prices have increased quite a bit especially as I had always thought it was a cheap place to shop.

I think it’s time you taught your driver Spencer some manners and some give him some guidance on how to actually approach and speak to people. Maybe you can provide him some training on this and put him on a course as it seems very difficult for him, bless him.

Asda is one of the top quality when it comes to choosing what to buy

Ordered 10 lactose free milk you only had 4 in stock so you sent out 6 whole milk… not being funny but it isn’t hard to figure out why I ordered lactose free milk 😅

This shop is best described as a bomb site absolute mess everywhere, empty cardboard left all over in pretty much every Isle, so many items ditched all over the floor saw several staff members walk past the items and not even bother picking them up, I'd be truly embarrassed if I was the manager of this store!

Very helpful polite staff unlike0 Tesco they'll go out of their way to check if they have a productsa out in the storeroom (and Tesco rudely said if it ain't on the shelf obviously we haven't got it don't know why people keep asking) I left went to ASDA looking for similar products unfortunately they didn't have them but supervisor put non ASDA products in my basket and gave me a free voucher to spend I've shopped there ever since. Plenty of friendly staff good product range are willing to help out at the self service check outs. The only problem is more security is needed as there always seems to be shoplifters inside the store and people begging outside the door.

Picked up a couple of in store choose your own toppings pizza's. I don't know if it's legal with covid rules but the lady preparing them wasn't wearing face covering. This doesn't feel right or seem safe to me. Long queues at the maned check outs, they seriously need to take a look how Aldi and Lidl manage this situation by opening more check outs when more than a few people are backing up. Update 7/1/21 stock levels extremely low in places, social distancing is non existent. As ever not enough manned check outs open. Update 28/5/21 very long wait time at manned check outs again. Update 16/08/22 only 2 maned checkouts open this time with over 10 people queueing at each one. So frustrating.

Atrocious delivery service... I ordered groceries for a family member urgently, paid for same day delivery as they were completely out of food and cannot afford to pay themselves, so I paid for a full monthly shop for my family member. Delivery never arrived and was told the next available slot was two days away. Leaving my family member without food. We have had to take a day off work and lose a days wages to travel down to where my family member lives to get his urgent shopping.

The supermarket itself is very good it has a lot of variation of items all over the world but my problem is the toilets especially the toilet downstairs where there is a changing place for children. It is not cleaned most of the time as I would expect someone to clean it regularly like they do inside supermarket. Please can you look at this, as we have babies to change in there and it is not a good environment for anyone.

Absolutely awful store!! The shelves are ALWAYS empty, can never get anything you want. Store standards are appalling, empty cardboard littering every shelf and piling up on the floor. God help you if you try to find a member of staff to help you!! Never any staff on the shopfloor. When you get to the checkouts it doesn't get any better either. If you choose a manned checkout you get a member of staff that is just generally disinterested and looks as if they don't want to be there and if you go to self service you wait ages for someone to approve your age restricted items. On the way out however you will find all those staff that you were hopelessly searching for earlier... stood at the front of the store talking to the multiple security guards that the store has!!

Most horrible shop ever ... at the till the employers are sleeping in the chair .... and the time of waiting huge

Can be better, but good if you require to buy smth for quick visit. Sometimes ASDA has really good sales for kids toys etc

Not recommend it. There is not save for parking your car, someone crashed my car and they didn’t check the CCTV for me , I reported to the police, they couldn’t find anything .

I love Asda and the staff are always helpful.

The shop itself is fine, though a little untidy and understocked. The problem? The toilets. I've no idea what the Mens are like, but none in the ladies are usuable. None of them flush!

Always crazy busy and crowded, tonight FRIDAY 22/04/2022 only one regular checkout open. Big queues at both self-service checkouts blocks. Litter blowing all over the car to a point it's a health risk.

My bike was stolen infront of the store ... The security didnt help me at all

Okay store. I ordered some items online for me to collect in-store. Had an email and text message to say my order was ready. Came all the way and was told the system was down. No warning whatsoever! So I came on a different day i didn't have my phone due to it being broke which had the code on. But I wrote it down and shown the lady instead. I also had other details too. Women at the till got salty with me because she wanted to see the code on my phone and wouldn't accept it on the piece of paper. She randomly lectured me saying I should have come on the right day. Then she spelt my name wrong in the system, then she trIed to make me think I went to the wrong store. Then she shouted at me in front of customers. Her tone of voice was appalling. All she had to do was do her job. I got my order in the end from another lady who was a lot nicer. If I order to collect again, I'll probably use a a different store or just not bother in future. Also on a different note as soon as you walk in or walk out, you are harassed and shouted abuse by people sleeping outside.

Disgustingly dirty with rude staff

I personally don't enjoy going to this Asda when in the center. Don't go unless you like weirdos, millions of mums and prams and people walking in your way. The only times we go is when we go on a walk along the embankment and we forgot food. The only good times is late in the evening when you can get your shopping done peacefully without being bombarded with the types of people I listed above. Also convenient when you want to go to Pets At Home as well.

Reasonably priced but not well stocked

Completely & utterly miffed regarding this stores security...dirty looks everytime I shop here...why do they not check customers bags on leaving if they suspect someone of shoplifting, ...all goods paid for in full! Get your act together Asda
