Unregistered   10 #1 Posted July 19, 2012 What's ASDA Chaucer like ?  Someone told me that you can stay dry if you go by car in the rain - how's that work ?  Are there lots of stairs ?  Is there a cafe ?  Do they sell clothing ? . . .

The car park itself is actually at ground level. Not underground. The store itself is directly above the car park. Access to the store is up a travelator, or there's a lift.  Yes there is a cafe, and they do sell clothes. As a regular there, I find the place fine, and the staff are trained very well, and are sometimes 'over-polite' and helpful, but in my boook that's a better than being a miserable bunch!  Don't listen to all the waffle about chavs and ferral kids. There's no more there than I've seen elsewhere in supermarkets! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

There's no more there than I've seen elsewhere in supermarkets!   hardly "waffle" as you put it - the place is filled with feral kids turning off the ramps, ive seen it and ive told them off for doing it. then you have kids inside with parents bare foot and in pyjamas. its such a classy place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

In fact I've only seen it turned off once, when some poor womans overflowing shopping fell out of her trolley on the way down, and someone stopped it to assist her.  Oh, and I don't ever remember going over there in my pj's either.

MissWhyke   10 #9 Posted July 19, 2012 I would prefer to goto Asda at Chaucer than Morrisons at Ecclesfield any day. I would rather travel that bit further for better customer service   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

But my experience is different, as you can see. I suppose a lot depends on what time of day you go there.  But I have to say, the customer service is by a long country mile the best I've ever come across in a supermarket.
