A local shop located on Burgess Road, not always easy to park as street parking only. Can buy most bits for groceries & other odds & ends what you can expect.
As an American, I love the amount of British food here. Everybody is so helpful and I can usually find everything I need. Plus the prices are a little better than the Tesco down the street
Today is July 1st, 2025. I purchased a bag of tomatoes and upon returning home, discovered that the expiration date on this bag was May 23rd, 2025. A bag of tomatoes, expired by more than a month, was openly placed on the shelf. It is noteworthy that another bag of tomatoes I bought did not have an expiration date label, whereas the label on this expired bag had been deliberately half torn off. This indicates that the store's method of dealing with expired food may involve removing labels and placing items back on the shelf. I am uncertain whether this practice violates UK law. In this particular bag, I found three tomatoes already spoiled. For those considering shopping at this store, please carefully verify expiration dates, and exercise caution with items lacking expiration labels, as they may be expired products with labels removed.
Love the essentials and the service! I love Sainsbury's Local because it always comes in handy when I need some essentials but don't want to bother going to big supermarkets. They have everything I usually need at home, including some basic ingredients for cooking Asian food. In addition to this, I particularly must praise the manager at the Burgess Road branch. Evi, the manager, is very helpful, cheerful and polite. She helped me find things I needed and always informed promotion. She also offered the best alternatives to items I couldn't find. She has always been a great help!
Some staff just hate human interaction. The costa machine in the shop did not print out the receipt, so I needed someone to help. The staff at the till just pointed towards the self-checkout till without saying anything and giving an unfriendly look. Some staff are nice and work professionally, but this place just lack of standards.
Nice ppl and good food. Has eggs.
You should take out rudi Indian ladie she's so terrible
A big shout out to Jon for being of the friendliest, polite and professional shop workers I have ever come across. Give that man a raise!
Thursday 29th December. Elderly gent collapsed outside and I fell when trying to catch him. Sainsburys staff were exemplary in their assistance in calling ambulance, finding warm jackets to keep me from freezing while lying flat on pavement and providing hot coffee for free. Thank you Sainsburys staff.
I have been visiting this Sainsbury's Local branch for 2 years. It has everything you need for your day-to-day needs; exceptions are very limited. Definitely recommend shopping here for added comfort since this branch is located on the busy Burgess road and is very close to the University of Southampton.
