I was staying with relatives for a short period of time at their bed and breakfast bungalow in colden common. Visiting the Co-op gave me a good opportunity to get some fresh air and stretch my legs.

People need to stop whining. Try and imagine our village without it? If you don't like it, go elsewhere. They do a great job in difficult times. You can't please all the Mongs all the time.

Had to search to see if I?d misread the opening times, turns out I?m not the only one to be let down by an early close. Just needed a couple of bits on a drive home, 19.20 on a Friday night seems an odd time for a shop to be closed when it?s states everywhere 22.00.

Brilliant when it's open

Never open at advertised hours ?

Shop is shut again without any warning without any explanation. We went there at 5pm. It?s getting way to common now these past months that we find the shop close HOURS before their official closing time. Also, the place is really messy, in the morning the pastries are not baked by 8-9 am and also the story is FULL with unpacked trolleys packed with products which is making it hard to get what we want as 1. there is no space to move and 2. The heavy trolleys are blocking the shelves. They are not short stuffed because every time we got there we see a minimum of 3 to 4 employees in the shop. It?s time for someone to do something as this situation is ridiculous.

They'd closed at least 30 minutes early, shutters were down and no explanation why. I'd travelled there specifically to post a parcel, had to go to Eastleigh where they said "Oh they are always closed there" If you are going to close early, update your opening hours.

For a place that is the only shop in the village, and a lifeline to so many elderly and vulnerable residents in the neighbouring areas, the reliability of this stores opening hours has forced myself and a number of others to just jump in the car to Tesco, where you can be assured you won?t be turning upto a randomly closed store. This has happened at least 4x in the past 2 months. If there was a sign, or notice, fair enough, but if the needs of the community are in the hands of certain members of management there, then this community is truly screwed. As someone in our residency groupchat put, to which they were unanimously supported, that store has been on the decline for well over 6 years. Sadly a number of staff seemed to have remained for that time and the sooner the shop gives way for a Tesco Express, the better the community will be

Already closed at 6:45pm on a Friday despite the signage saying 7am-10pm. Either update the times to something realistic or get more staff instead of wasting everyone?s time

16:45 on a Saturday and the store was closed! What is going on?

If i could give zero stars i would. Coop you need to look at the situation here. I have just returned from a walk in the rain to get a couple of bits for tea early evening to find our only local shop shut YET AGAIN. A village this big needs a reliable local shop. Several times i have popped in in my return from work in the week to find it shut at 6pm which is an absolute joke. I worked there as a teen and the shop was always open till 10pm and 1 of 3 shops in colden common! Fuming as i am sure a lot of people are! How do the elderly cope who dont drive?! Sort it out!

Turned up at 7:30pm on Thursday and all the shutters were down. Looked completely shut down. Thought it was supposed to be open until 10pm..

Always closed staff are rude and the big guy is weird around children

Only shop I could find in the area, staff friendly polite and helpful. With plenty of parking outside. Have read some of these reviews seems a bit different now.

Great post office service when they are open! Often closed due to staff shortages as short notice.
