Fui a hacer algunas compras, no había personal en las cajas, tuve que pedir que se abriera una, después de algunas excusas abrieron una. Un miembro del personal dijo que Kim el gerente no quería que los clientes usaran cajas para mantener el número de empleados bajo en la mañana (9 am). Una tercera persona se unió a la cola y se le dijo que la caja estaba cerrando debido a la gestión y el uso de auto-pago.

This superstore can be really good, if it was run well by management. I have been in many times and for the size of the place they have 1 member of staff on the till, this is simply not acceptable. For the customers who don,t want to use a robot and prefer a human being serving you have to join the long queue. regarding the self service robots, there is plenty of them and staff to man them. I seriously wonder if the Manager is getting an incentive for not manning tills!!! People need to wake up to what is happening! Once told a staff member in my local Lloyds when trying to get people to use the robot in the wall i wasnt going to use that i preferred to be served by staff, she laughed when i told her it would take her job. But it did, and the bank is no longer there.

Avoid at all costs, We called into this store to get some snacks & use the disabled toilets, upon arriving we noticed how grotty and dirty the streets and the entrance to this big store was, there were gangs of Feral kids, beggars, and undesirables hanging around. We felt unsafe walking to the entrance of the store, after purchasing some items, we asked the staff if we could use the Disabled toilets to freshen up before our night out. When we got to the toilet area all doors were locked, also the Cafe was locked/closed. I asked the staff why we couldn't use the facilities, they say that they had all been wrecked and smashed up by undesirables who frequently use the toilets for illegal activities. We left the area after that

If I could give a lower score then I would !!!! I went to the cafe this morning hoping be able to get some gluten free breakfast .. I was told “we don’t do that stuff here” and was offered ordinary bread, soup ( at 8:50am ) or a vegan sandwich - not gluten free! I think this is absolutely disgraceful. It’s a supermarket café- the store have shelves of gluten free food so why not cater for it ? Yet again penalized by Sainsbury’s for having a medical Condition.

Before catching the train back to Liverpool after our four wonderful days spent in this eclectic seaside resort we dropped into this Sainsburys to grab a few things to chomp through on the train back to Merseyside, sandwiches, crisp,cola and the like and we dropped by the cafe housed in here ,grabbed a cappuccino, it was nice ,not the best cappuccino I've ever tasted but certainly not the worst ,staff were nice and the Sainsburys store looked really impressive, a huge modern building located overlooking the train station, if your in the shopping department store most definitely well worth checking out .

On Sunday we went to Sainsbury’s for something to eat, I ordered the salmon with chips and salad. When it arrived the salmon was not cooked so sent it back. To my surprise when I got it back it was a fresh meal not just reheated. Very impressed

Unusual for a large Supermarket to find such an excellent cafeteria area. On the mezzanine floor, it has good views over the railway station area and on the other side over its own shopping area. Food is certainly great, especially the very large jacket potatoes. Prices very breasonable.

On a positive note I love the supermarket but the cafe badly lets it down. We had a quick bite of lunch and my jacket potato with tuna and sweetcorn turned out to be a potato with a grey gloopy mess on top. There was little evidence of any tuna amongst the mayonnaise and sweetcorn and the thing was tasteless, sadly the accompanying salad was dry and totally unappetising. Similarly, we left the coffee as it was unpalatable. Having to walk back to the counter to us for salt pepper and vinegar didn't exactly turn me on either. I have always considered Sainsbury's to be a quality brand but there was very little quality and evidence on this visit and there are lots of nice diners ashore distance away.

Called in for Sunday morning breakfast and as it had just opened wasn't too busy. Very good clear menu, reasonably priced. Opted for the 2 eggs, 2 bacon and toast deal for £3 each plus coffees, a bargain at £9 for 2. Everything was excellent, served hot and the tables and cutlery etc spotless. Service was very good and friendly and would definitely recommend.

Service was very slow - doesn't seem to be any organisation behind the tills at all. Once you have placed your order you then have to queue for drinks. This process is so slow that your food usually comes out of the kitchen whilst you are still queuing for drinks. This leaves staff wandering around looking for your order number which is still on the tray waiting for the drinks - so food is often cold once it has been paraded around the cafe a few times. Queued today for 15 mins just for a sandwich. The prawn sandwich was disgusting. No taste at all in the prawns which were supposed to be in mayo which was more like wallpaper paste. Poor choice of healthy snacks if you want something warm. Would have liked something like beans on toast but only choice was something fried. Settled for a tuna mayo jacket. This was more like mayo with a few flakes of tuna added - very poor quality.

Long queues at counter due to lack of staff. Only 1 person serving & taking orders, so queue never got shorter. Food ok but not that hot. No hospitality check. Self clearing but many tables not cleared. Not the best restaurant in Sainsburys I'm afraid.

This is virtually a brand new store in Blackpool and we called into the cafe for quick coffee before we boarded a train at Blackpool North Station which is just across the road. We were greeted by a very long queue which moved VERY slowly. We only wanted a cup of coffee but there was only 1 lady serving drinks and she was working very slowly...don’t get me wrong she was very pleasant but she told every customer about how she likes to clean the equipment after every drink served and various tales of how she kept burning herself. It took 20 mins from point of ordering to receiving our coffee - this really needs addressing be it more staff or better training! Its a clean cafe but please don’t go there if you are limited at all for time!

This must be one of the best super stores in the uk. I've been impressed with cafe/restaurant but the whole shopping experience here is "special". Must be a blue print for future stores. It has that sense of space & light with everything you need & good value for money; Lots of great budget buys. Definitely a cut above your Lidl's & Aldi's. I like a bargain but I do like quality & the few pence extra here is definitely worth it with Sainsburys. This store is 10 out of 10. *****

I visited at 8.00am and there was only another 2 tables of 2 in the dining area. My bacon was almost raw and the mushroom was raw. I gave the benefit of the doubt and tried again some weeks after only to get to the counter to see a sign saying "NO TEA" I was not happy as I always have tea at breakfast so I left without ordering.

I can't vouch for the food, but in the 21st Century when you're paying over £2 for a coffee it should be decent. Sainsbury's cafe seems to aspire to mediocrity and often fails to meet that level. A bit more effort ( and training) please

Sainsburys in Blackpool is the best thing that's happened to the Town in a long time. A spotless Cafe which is terrific value for money and a great shopping experience; particularly the clothes. Parking is easy and free and you can comfortably shop for most groceries and household items. All supermarkets should be just like this one. Well done!!!

The new Sainsbury's is an excellent place to eat and drink, but when someone reads these messages on here without thinking, it causes everyone a headache, "Oh there is a stain in a teapot" REPORT IT TO Manager, not on here, WHY because Sainsbury's puts a small metal one in its place, which then burns the assistant hands when filling, and the user spills tea over the table because they are a bad design..

Recently I visited the sainsburys cafe with some work colleagues for a quick lunch unfortunately the service was very slow. It took 3 people to take our order and then we had to wait a long time for the food to arrive. There is so many members of staff works there but they are all wondering around looking like they don't have a clue what they are doing. The staff had no idea about food intolerances ans brought me the book so I could check over the ingredients as they were unaware as to what gluten was.

If I could have awarded this pub a zero I would have done, the staff were very friendly but I’m afraid that’s all the positives. There was a quiz on so we sat outside as it was so loud, noisy people outside & a few youths were trying to get in the pub but were apparently barred. Eventually they were allowed in but chose to sit opposite us, the language was disgusting so we drank up & left only to see a youth urinating against a wall ! Won’t return

Haven't been to a subway for two years and the food and coffee was fine but £6.28 for a six inch sub and a coffee is a rip off. Won't be going back. Greggs bacon roll and a coffee is half the price.
