I was accused by the staff of stealing when I had a receipt to prove my purchase. When evidence was shown to the security within the store I was left feeling in shock and angry as to the false accusation that was made against me by the till staff and security guard. When I asked for an apology for the accusation made none was forthcoming from the either party.

Saintsburys is my supermarket in the UK. Waitrose is also great, but quite expensive. The price-performance ratio is simply right. Above all, I love Habitat. And the range of inexpensive children's clothing is simply great. No stay in England without many visits to Saintsburys. PS: I'm not talking about Saintsburys local. These are general stores. 😊😊😊

Definitely a decent place if you wanna go in for something quick but the wear and tear has really hit the store. Some of the items and the isle location of items make no sense together so you might think an item is not available when they are actually in a different location.

This is where we do our weekly shop, and for years it's been fantastic - but we've noticed vegan options are disappearing. I had thought that all the stuff we buy had been phased out, then I went to another Sainsburys at Westwood Cross and EVERYTHING was there. Why have you stopped trying? We're limited now to so little, and I'm never going to eat meat or dairy, so what option do I have? You were great once!

7 years ago I reviewed Sainsbury's and gave it five stars. Unfortunately, now it only deserves two stars as the lines and brands stocked by the store have reduced significantly. I can no longer get my preferred breakfast cereal (Grape Nuts), nor can I buy large bottles of spirits, being forced to buy more expensive, smaller 750 ml bottles. They have added additional features, such as an Argos collection point, but removed the really useful pharmacy. To compound all of this, I am forced to scan all of my own shopping as they have put in a majority of self-service, Which means my free labour is being used to support the shareholders profit! In addition, often the shelves are empty, mainly due to our Brexit bonus of no longer having access to a free market, so the price of our goods has gone up considerably 😞. I have taken to shopping in the Asda, just down Sturry Road as it meets my requirements, but it is less convenient. Maybe Sainsbury's needs to rethink its customer base.

You literally get almost everything you need and the nectar card is a blessing in disguise. I look for ingredients that are used for Indian cooking and you have a section for it. I buy the ones that are available and the other ones I usually go to the Asian grocery store. But overall it's a good place to get groceries.

I find this appalling as there are a lot of foreigners around Canterbury and lots of students who get rude remarks but are not even able to make formal compaints. Some staff ive heard makong comments about children as well-- but I saw the child was autistic. I think some staff training brush up would be appropriate.

It's a nice big supermarket with a large car park, which can be quite busy. There is an extensive range of grocery and frozen products, and a range of clothes for adult and children, together with toys. Argos is also situated inside. There's also a Timpson key cutting and shoe repair kiosk on the site. Inside there's a pharmacy and a Starbucks as well. Avoid the till queues by using Sainsbury's phone app to scan your items, and pay at the self serve. July 2023 - the pharmacy has now closed.

My fiancé and I recently moved to Canterbury, and because we enjoyed doing our weekly shopping at Sainsbury's in the previous town we lived in, we wanted to do the same here if course.....but we were so disappointed (and a bit surprised, lol) to find that this is the Sainsbury's we would have to shop at now if we keep shopping at Sainsbury's. The stock is limited (for example, the yoghurt section doesn't stock much more than a Sainsbury's local), yet shelves seem crammed and messily packed.The layout is just confusing and somewhat jarring, and the overall atmosphere is just depressing to be honest. We thought that maybe they're in the middle of an ongoing renovation, but I don't think so... Just feels like an afterthought Sainsbury's supermarket.

Not a usual Sainsbury's experience. Popped in to pick up a few bit, whilst there both myself and my wife nipped into the toilets. They were rank, dirty,.smelly, empty soap dispensers... And get this ... The single toilet cubicle had a paper dispenser where the toilet paper was pulled through a tiny hole.... This hole was blocked solid so it was impossible to get any toilet paper. I have literally never seen a supermarket toilet with no way to get toilet paper... How disgusting is that... It looked like it had.been like that for ages and ages. Just imagine how many people use that toilet then go outside to find no soap in the dispenser and then go out to touch all the produce outside. I came out to my wife telling me it was the same in the Ladies! Shocking. Who ever is the manager of that store should hang their head in shame. Sainsbury's... What are you playing at!

Pretty awful. Gents was revolting. Disabled was locked. Tried to complain but no one at customer services - one person serving vapes to a long queue. Long queue at the only open till too, but the self check tills were all empty - presumably people don’t want to put their neighbours out of a job.

Sainsbury's does have much going for it not least plenty of parking sadly this is often abused by those that buy a paper then wander off to shop elsewhere. I'm disabled and they do have plenty of disabled spots to park in, they also are very helpful to disabled people in the store! There are certain items I can only find at Sainsbury's like spray starch which bizarrely is a dying range of items? There are sadly fewer and fewer real check out tills so as with other stores I have to try to unload and scan my shopping from a low angle it's amazing they don't have a lower scanner for disabled people but maybe they think we are not worth bothering with? The team are very loyal although they do change, many of the more mature staff and brilliant but the younger ones maybe need time to assimilate to the work environment. Stacking shelves is a laborious task and I can't do it with my knackered knee! So good luck to them! It's often overrun with coach parties of European school children as it's located next to the Canterbury Coachpark, but I guess we brits do the same on a day trip to France!

Large and has a good selection of services on offer, e.g. pharmacy and electronic goods. Car park is usually always full. Quite often don't have many full tills open, so can be slow to buy things if you have a full big trolley. 2023 Update - since COVID this store has gone hugely downhill. Their stock levels are generally awful, specifically the fruit and veg section. The staff don't seem to put much effort in either restocking or tidying up the shelves either. It really is quite a frustrating shop to use compared to a typical Sainsbury's in other towns.
