SPAR Huntington Road

I go here most weeks for the last decade or so, on the whole it's pretty good, folks like you and me trying to keep it all together and exist.. some have a bad day, as we all do. Some need more training, but given that they do post office, lottery, shopping, shelf stacking, stock rotation etc I think it's pretty amazing.

The staff are absolutely amazing here! So helpful and the place always seems to be really clean and I don't think I've had an stock (yet) near it's Use-by date! I do have one small problem however... The prices! Some of the stock at this store is really overpriced, such as £2.15 for a SINGLE monster energy drink, which are £1.65-1.75RRP! Why are they literally 50p more? Other than the prices? A great store!

I shop at this store regularly and have spent a lot of money over the years but tonight I’ve spent my last penny I'm sad to say. I was spoken to like a child by a young female member of staff who was probably young enough to be my daughter she passively aggressively said “Merry Christmas” to me when handing me an item (I’m writing this in March obviously) I said there’s no need to be rude she said she wasn’t being rude but obviously I’m inclined to disagree. I work in retail myself and would never speak to a customer like this and shouldn’t have to put up with sarcasm when I’m spending money. I hope the staff enrolment improves but I won’t be there to see it. Regards.

This store has come a long way since the elderly grey haired nasty lady has retired, how she was ever hired in the first place is beyond me but how she stayed so long quite obviously hating the place is also a mystery. Everything was always an inconvenience to her, hence all your awful reviews. The staff are now helpful and friendly in store and the store has everything you need but expensive. However, I went in store last week at 6pm to find that EVRI is now running on post office hours - so closes at 5pm every day, I work full time so idk when you expect working people to send their parcels now? Whoever in head office that thought this was a good idea has clearly never worked in retail themselves as the hard working staff in store will probably now get a lot of grief for this terrible idea, Just wait for Christmas when everyone wants to return things after work and can’t do so, if this is the case and you are closing EVRI early you’ll need to update your website making people aware of this because your staff will get grief from customers. Massive inconvenience, nice to see we’re going back to the times when the grey haired lady worked here and not progressing!!

Terribly rude staff encounter. Happened, twice. Staff member with ear pieces ignored, and then pretended not to understand what I was saying. Trying to make me look stupid. Then said I am dealing a customer right now with nasty face expression. Unbelievable. Previously a staff member said we dont sell umbrellas we are departmental store! even though I had seen umbrellas stacked there. Selectively rude staff. Will try to ruin your day.
