Fantastic store. Ok from free car parking, to great location. The Sainsburys store is amazing. I went in today for a bunch of flowers and was impressed with selection and range. I settled for a bouquet for £10. Paying was easy and exiting was great.

This place never empties which I think is a good reflection of its quality food and selection available. Theres a multi storey carpark attached which is free to park in and very handy as you can access Sainsbury's by taking the escalator. I've always found this shop to be well stocked and tills always have plenty of staff so queuing it kept to a minimum. The have a coffee shop attached also. The only bit that bugs me is the off licence is not within the shop and is out in the mall. I often forget this and go searching for it inside the shop or else do lots of grocery shopping and end up with so many bags that I can't be bothered to go into the off licence after, but that's just me!

Great store with plenty of choice.good idea having self serve at the front and the far end of the store, its quicker to use the tills at the far end and if you've parked outside there's an exit behind the cafe and tills that most people don't know about. The hot food counter is handy for lunch if you need to eat on the move and the cafe great to sit in. During the busy times of the year its easier to park at Homebase and walk over if you can. Chistmas time and bank holidays are hectic at forestside.

Sainsbury's is my favourite supermarket. Its quality products are the best available and it sells a great range of items. I'm a fan of their vegetarian foods and Sainsbury's own brand items (love Sainsbury's Nut Cutlets and veggie mince). They have the best labelling of all the supermarkets with all their own brand products clearly labelled as to whether or not they are vegetarian or BUAV approved (not tested on animals). In addition their brand match scheme ensures you don't pay more with Sainsbury's than with another supermarket. As per Sainsbury's website "When you buy ten or more different products, we'll tot up the comparable brands in your basket. If you could have paid less at Asda - even because of the deal - we'll give you a coupon for the difference off your next shop." I always use my brand match vouchers at my next Sainsbury's grocery shop. Plus their wine selection is superior to all other supermarket selections. Quality store with unbeatable prices, pleasant to browse and lovely, helpful staff. Perfect. At Christmas and New Year Sainsbury's have a special range of fabulous food you can order and collect in store, I would especially recommend the: *Three nut roast with cranberry sauce *Butternut & mushroom en croute *Limoncello buche de Noel If you want indulgent, treat foods try Sainsbury's 'Taste The Difference' range. This blows every other supermarkets 'luxury' items clean out of the water. Definitely the best you'll get, bar none.

Sainsbury's is the main supermarket in the Forestside shopping centre, so for this reason it is always packed, no matter what time of the day it is. The supermarket has all the stuff you would expect and more, and is a good place to get all your weekly shop done. They have a very large fruit and veg section, complete with salad bar if you are that way inclined, with a very large delicatessen meat and cheese counter. The store also has a large range of magazines, books, CDs, DVDs and games, and is always worth a check for a better price if you are about to buy a recently released item from HMV. As for the rest of the store there is a large range of everything as you would expect. The store has its own cafe which is good for pacifying those who have been dragged along or those who have worked up a hunger in their arduous shopping trip! The store also has installed self scanning machines, which is a real boost to customers as they can get in and for a few items much faster than in the past! I will sign off with a tip: try the white chocolate and cranberry cookies from here. You will not find a better cookie from any supermarket, pinky promise!
