M&S Simply Food in Mendip - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I needed some underwear to go under a special dress and wasn’t sure what I wanted. I approached a sales lady called Sonia who was amazingly helpful. She interrupted what she was doing and found online exactly what I needed and even ordered it for me. Many thanks Sonia

The usual M &S quality , but there are lots of independent shops in Frome that will give you something different .

It's really handy having a food shop in the town centre - as there doesn't seem to be that many anymore after the national denomination of a few megastores (with free carparking). However, I feel that M&S should put a bit more effort into how they serve their 'click and collect' customers. I had to pick up another order in Frome so I ordered something from M&S the same day - I called in but was told it was not available and was hoping to pick it up later but then received a message saying it had been delayed for 48 hours. When I got home, I decided to cancel the order and get it at another branch off-the-shelf to discover that it had been delivered to the Frome branch at 9 a.m. that morning. Thanks for that.

Out of stock of all Coronation chicken readymade items unfortunately! However the low star review is because car parking is paid, only cash or app (ring go) at the parking machines - No cards. Previous reviews stated you get your parking money back but I found that I was slightly under the apparent £10 spend required and with queues and short of time it was unsuitable to go find something else. Not impressed about that.

Good range of foods. We bought delicious sourdough

Excellent small store with an abundance of quality products with clothes and household goods as well the food which M&S in renowned for ,with a bonus of a car park.

Larger than many "Simply Food" and also does clothing, wine and many other items.

Good selection of foods, flowers, cards and clothes. Everything is always fresh.

The clothing section of this shop is not large, but the food hall is great. A really good selection of lovely food. What makes this store shine, however, is the almost pathological helpfulness of the staff. They are virtually falling over themselves to make sure you can find what you need, and are so friendly and welcoming. A lovely shopping experience.

Went in to buy a few Christmas treats and had a really frustrating experience. I was in the queue for the self checkouts behind a few people and a lady walked straight past us all and went to a checkout that was out of order. When she was told that it wasn't working, she simply loitered near the checkouts and used the next one that became available. While she was stood there she stared back at the queue, so it was clear that she could see there were others already waiting, but seemed to think it was fine to go straight to the front. The staff didn't ask her to go to the back of the queue, probably because they were helping others and presumed that she was next, so not their fault. I've had similar experiences to this in the past, where we've been looking for something on a shelf and someone has walked through us in huff, so we've stepped out of their way. It seems that if you are full of your own self importance then you shop at this store. I won't be going back in a hurry.

Good stock, everything I needed + extra treats. Meal Deal had new dishes and the checkout experience was warm and friendly

A good selection of item, with a larger property than other branches of the chain. Some locally produced goods are stocked here, along with the usual variety of supermarket goods, albeit at a very slightly higher cost. There is a large car park which is a pay and display, so there wont be any accessibility issues.

Poor selection of food compared to other similar sized M and S store's.

Very long queue only used the car park.

Always a pleasure to shop in m.s

10minute wait outside, No shelter

Absolutely rubbish hardely anything on shelfs would not recommend this m&s to anyone

Good selection of food and very helpful staff

I enjoy going into MnS always fresh food Helpful staff well absolutely brilliant and especially during lockdown can't thank them,as l do, enough

Working great processes during their COVID19 reopening. Great friendly considerate staff

Good 2 Metre distancing and trolley wiped. 2 in 2 out system

Thankyou Simply Food Frome All your staff have been so friendly, cheerful and helpful during this difficult time. It is a relief for me to be able to write a positive post after our visit today. After a difficult day my faith in human nature was restored by the excellent service received. Teresa was particularly inspiring with her down to earth chat and her very professional presentation (great red nails and lovely hair). At this time it is the little things that make a difference to us. Thankyou Kim Morris

An enjoyable experience shopping ..Lovely staff I think one is named Aiden.. and a lady had coloured hair..both wonderful personality so friendly smiles and makes you feel special..

Staff were friendly and helpful during my visit on Tuesday. Found some good bargains. It was so nice having an M&S dinner and dessert, which was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Haven't been able to get to an M&S since just before lockdown, so really lovely treat.

I felt very safe shopping here. They have put in place great controls on numbers of shoppers and distancing. The staff are fantastic and helpful. Thank you all.

Lovely staff, very helpful. Food is very good especially the Madeira cake, and corned beef. Lovely selection of fruit and vegetables. We like their ready meals too.

A nice place to shop with nice people

Don't like the new serve yourself idea

Nice small store with good parking facilities.

Always good to get a few bits good gluten free range

Picked up Christmas turkey, never again !

Had everything we needed for Christmas table

Good services there and has all you need in there to

Great store, tucked away round the back of the main area. Good selection of products with a few clothes too.

Good though slightly limited produce of very high quality.

M&S FOOD retailer but with lots of seasonal jumpers for sale.

Not a massive store but it has a little bit of everything. Cracking bread counter, lovely staff but a shame about the amount of plastic in all the fruit and processed food.

Another perfect M&S staff were very welcoming and helpful.

Ruth is amazing and super funny, made my day really good shopping trip 👍

Nice shop, full of the usual pretentious women of a certain age spending their husbands hard earned pension. Always entertaining.

Nice little store Good food, some a little pricey

Usual good service, and well presented shelves.

Excellent service received today. Friendly, helpful staff and assistance to carry my purchases. Very grateful indeed.

Friendly service and great quality food

Nice little M&S. Good although small selection of lovely M&S food plus some clothes/home wares etc. Bakery section for fresh yummy pastries and bread. Very friendly helpful staff and clean tidy store. Bonus you can get you £1 car park fee back at the till!

Usual m and s food store. You know what you're getting, which may be the biggest advantage.

Helpful staff . Friendly till staff. Good selection of fresh produce .

A small expensive store. Small quantities of products, high prices.

Decent food just like any other M&S!

Great store. Wheelchair accessible. Great vegan/vegetarian range. You have to pay for parking but if you buy something in store they refund you your parking charge.

Lovely! No question about my assistance dog, completely charming young lady at express checkout. Thankyou

Great for yellow stickers on a Sunday

Always quality food at this place and not badly priced

Great store. Offers all I need and lovely, polite staff. Highly recommend

Good selection, was actually surprised by how reasonably priced the Easter eggs are.

Visited to buy stuffing to have with a turkey on the weekend. Got what I needed.

Location fantastic with plenty of parking. Parking returned at til. Food fresh and shelves well stocked. Customer service is as also polite and helpful. M &S food and customer service excellent as always.

A good shopping experience. Quality food and goods and aisles wide enough for my walker

Welcoming, friendly staff. Always very clean and tidy.

Good quality food but can be very slow on check out

Excellent for a quick M&S visit limit foodstuffs

Good sized shop reasonable range of clothes and gifts. Good range of food. Some lovely chatty ladies and gents serving on customer services and the tills

Delays on checkouts continue to be a problem in busy periods with some lack of planning by customers in payment methods!!!!

I like there food and I am going to shop there a gain every week xxx

Hell on earth. Very limited selection.

I collected £90.50 worth of Christmas fayre, when I reached the till the cheese from one of the packs was missing, thanks to the alertness of a nice lady at the till who noticed it was missing. She rang for help, it was replaced at once. However when I got home there was cheese missing from the sealed pack. It could be said I should have noticed it, under the circumstances it was the last thing I was expecting. Very disappointed, I think this will be my last purchase at Christmas here In this store. Poor value for money. I hope I get a reply to this complaint!!!.

Great shop with good line and nice staff

Great little store. Lovely staff.

Need to do larger sizes there's real call in frome

Great small store for a country town.

No eating place. Fancied coffee and cake but alas nowhere.

No deli. Shame as they had room, but they do sell some clothes instead ! Need to rethink and change the clothes to a deli which has been a great choice in other stores

Okay but they keep changing their range. Some things good. Others just expensive

Food on shelves many with ,1 day left best before. Bought some celery hearts stringy isn't the word!!!!!!! Made journey to buy underwear NO normal sizes in stock won't bother again!!!!!!

Not much variety of food but clean and friendly staff

Nice m&s, food section fairly small but found what I needed.

I love this place, ever since it opened. Half the staff are friendly and helpful and the other half are unapproachable and unhelpful. They do a good selection, but can be pricey. Take a good look for the bargains. Clothes are good but a little high priced, better quality I guess. Good selection of cards for birthdays, anniversaries etc. Easy queuing. Easy pay. Also if you park in their car park and bring in your ticket, you get the money back off your shopping. They have always done this, I hope it continues. Prawns here are absolutely amazing. I use to go in just for them if I was passing! Great arrangement of flowers. Bread section is really good, they have a inshore bakery so rolls and loafs are cooked daily. The smell is amazing. They sell baby clothes and other baby items. Perfumes, candles etc they sell.

Handy to shop and get some nice things.

Does what it says on the tin - food shop.

Excellent for food. Parking adequate.

Typical M and S selection of foods of very good quality but service was not as good as expected from this company

Very good. The assistant was extremely helpful and welcoming.

Range a bit limited but good quality

Food store only. But good variety and God quality

I stopped at this store passing through on my way to Glastonbury, and I was not disappointed, as even though the food choices in the food hall are quite limited, I found some lovely choices from their Christmas range, and was served by a lovely warm and friendly member of staff without too much of a queue.

Every small town should have an m&s

My local M&S great place to shop

It's mostly a food hall but rather conservative in stock with few of the more interesting foods stocked at other stores, there are M&S stores in garages that have a better selection.

Wonderful staff, always very helpful, Christmas would not be the same without marks and Spencer's,
