I think the entrance is more or less where the old entrance to riverside used to be, but down a curved ramp....


@1JKz I think its just carparking, but there will be restaurants/shops under the multi-story car park opposite....

Ah, cheers

If you build it, they will ("perhaps") come.

M & S always seemed to have shorter dates on a lot of its produce. However the increase of yellow stickers shows the new food hall is not hitting projected sales.

As with any new store they never hit things bang on immediately. I would of thought the yellow stickers were completely in line with expectations. They'll just adjust what they stock etc...

They also stay open later, so reduce items later too. I'm also not sure they do more than 30% off anymore, I was in at closing time the other day and there were loads of items only vaguely reduced that they'd need to throw away if not sold. Maybe they're short staffed?

Most likely would get picked up by the staff.

TBH I'm glad of it if so, as shop workers get few enough perks. That said companies much prefer to make some money than nowt at all from stuff they have to sell that day.

I noticed the same, there is much more food in the food hall, but there seem to be a lot less customers (just in the food hall part) - which seems to mean that over 1/3 of the food has reduced stickers on - all good for me as I'm a skinflint !

Good for me too have bought a few things and stuck them in the freezer

Dont s&m take part in supplying waste food to homeless groups like house of bread ?

Yes when I was in the Food Hall last Friday morning it was very quiet. The old one, ok only a quarter of the size was packed weekends. Nice to shop in though as you can actually see what is on display.

The oldies don't like the new food hall. Most days, the old shop used to look like a saga cruise ship had just docked.

To be honest they'll have to get used to packing an extra cardigan before venturing in there.... It's a little bit chilly....

M&S will have to try and get the oldies back in store. After all, they are the richest pensioners ever.

 

[jacs]

I was in there between half 5 and 6 last night and it was pretty empty. I would've thought it'd be busy with people leaving work at that time.

Ageed - the whole shop is very cold. I think the AC needs adjusting,
