The 30 Best Retail stores in Ashton-under-lyne

“Shaun delivered a desk today, he was polite and professional and went above and beyond to help us. Desk was put up quickly and all rubbish was removed. 5 star service, more than happy to recommend”

“Perfect. Easy to use, convenient loxation, lots of parking.”

“Very happy with the delivery of our new king size bed from this shop. Over the past 20 years, I've bought several beds from here for myself and my family, and we've always experienced the same great service — friendly staff, affordable prices, and prompt delivery.”

“What a great garage. Whole family use this place and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Will not be beaten on price and quality of the repairs. Brilliant gentleman named Neville always makes sure I am back on the road asap when my car has any issues. Would highly recommend him and definitely think he needs a promotion! Thanks guys!”

“We went here to look at getting a new hamster, but we ended up with 2 gorgeous Guinea Pigs. The girl who served us was brilliant. They had a cold once we got them home and Pets at Home took them to the vets in the shop, got them both treatment and paid for everything, such superb customer and pet service :) We now go here for all the piggy requirements.”

“Handy for the larger items and if bulk is needed,staff very polite and helpful,, I spend a lot on trade, but no card, have for Screwfix, another excellent trade and public again staff fantastic”

“Excellent store which has an amazing variety of Aussie Cadbury chocolates including Dream, Cherry Ripe, Violet Crumble, Mint Twirl, Twirl Caramilk, Cadbury Top Deck (Dream & Milk Chocolate), Cadbury Marble and the Cadbury Favourites selection box. The Favourites is the Aussie equivalent of Miniature Heroes (or Heroes as it is now called), but way better. It has Dream, Cadbury Milk Chocolate original, Cadbury Caramello, Moro, Flake, Boost, Picnic, Crunchie and Turkish Delight. The prices are a bit higher than the UK Cadbury equivalents but this is understandable as it is being shipped all the way from Australia. It also stocks Darrel Lea chocolate bars, imported from Australia as well. As well as this, it has some of the hard-to-find American cereals, like Chips Ahoy and Oreo O's. #Australia #ChipsAhoy #Oreo”

“Tolik on flooring was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable! I came in with a project in mind and he guided me through every step, helping me find the right materials without any hassle. A truly positive shopping experience.”

“Had problems with an order I did online. I visited the store and a worker called Jazz really went out of her way for me. There’s nothing better than customer service that goes above and beyond!! It was quite a complex problem but she dealt with it efficiently and had it sorted the same day! Thankyou!”

“I had problems with domestic and general repairs. I was messed around with them for almost a week and because I got my warranty from argos I went in store and spoke to a lady who I believe is called Paige, she handled everything for me and spent over half an hour on the phone to them ensuring I had everything sorted. And on my behalf filed a complaints form. The epitome of good customer service”

“Second time we take our dog for grooming. First time I was not very impressed as was looking like products used were quite aggressive and left my dog al itchy for a few days, but this time after speaking to the staff all went perfectly. Doggy came home very happy as like been to the spa and smelling like heaven”

“I had a chain that needed a new bolt ring. It was done whilst I waited and at a very good price. Great service and lovely, friendly staff. Would highly recommend.”

“Great variety of Islamic items and it’s the best in Ashton. Great customer service as well.”

“Popped in for a drink before my local club Rushall played Away to Curzon Ashton. Really chilled and relaxed vibe, as well as a fantastic array of music and cool knick knacks adorning the whole shop / bar. Although there is nothing on draught, the owner will happily decant any drink of choice into a cool cold glass. Went for a couple of the German Pilseners including the Jever which went down a treat. Only disappointment was that I didn't have more time to try a few more flavours. Will hopefully make a return in future seasons but well recommended and can imagine it is rightly busy in evenings.”

“Nice clean cafe, staff were friendly and the food was great.”

“Thank you so much to the lady who helped us purchase the Bully Billows harness for our dog Alfie today . We didn't get her name but have got to say that the service was excellent- she was knowledgeable about the products too .”

“Today I purchased a bracelet from The Arcade Shopping Centre, Ashton U Lyne. I was greeted cheerfully by a lovely young man. He was polite, professional and extremely helpful. The way he presented the goods helped me decide on my purchase. It wasn’t expensive but I felt it didn’t matter if I was spending a few pounds or a few thousand pound I was still treated like a valued customer. I would just like to say well done with your choice of staff. Good luck to this young man with his future career. The bracelet was worth every penny.”

“I've used this jeweller for years. I've had stuff made, repaired, cleaned and valued. He's always been honest and quick at getting things done. I'd recommend him to anybody”

“Order delivered earlier than expected, food still hot, tastes lovely thanks guys!”

“The other supermarkets can all price match but they can never really compare Aldi will always be the best 4 overall price and quality”

“Great store always good value ,plenty of bargains”

“Great place to 'chill' with friends with the added bonus of rewards of 'beans' for each drink, various offers, and free WiFi.”

“We have visited this store many times and have always been pleased with the products and the polite, friendly and helpful staff, but today (04/09/25) we felt that one member of staff, Emily, was particularly helpful, nothing seemed to be too much trouble. She helped us find one item and we were looking for another that we had seen online, she found there was only one in stock but not where it would have been expected, however she searched, enquired with other staff, and found the item we wanted. We said thank you but thank you again, Emily.”

“Peter Potts @ Ashton helped design my dream kitchen for my late father’s property. He completely understood my needs and what I wanted to achieve. The kitchen was delivered as arranged and looks stunning! Couple of damaged items which I was able to replace easily via the app. Peter went beyond to make my kitchen perfect. Would thoroughly recommend! Thank you Peter and Wren!!”

“This particular outlet is quite large, so there is a lot of choice to be had There are plenty of branded items that are much cheaper than the supermarket Be sure to display a parking ticket Simply provide your registration number, and you will get 45 minutes for free”

“Me and my mum went into this Pizza Hut last week when it was raining really hard. There was nobody else in there and the lady who seated and served us was absolutely lovely. She started up the buffet fresh just for us and everything was piping hot. The salad bar, buffet and the toilets were all spotless and it was clear how well the place is looked after. The service was honestly impeccable from start to finish and every single member of staff was so kind and welcoming. You can really tell the manager has done an amazing job here. This is the best Pizza Hut in Manchester in my opinion and we cannot wait to come back.”

“My Wife will always find a nice dress or two in here. Caters for all different tastes and age and good quality at reasonable price.”

“Lady on the till around 16:45 - 17:00 14-05-25 was very polite and friendly”
