My parents have returned back to living in the UK after years of retirement travelling around the world, and their English is really rusty. They are in their eighties. This afternoon, my mum went into the Piccadilly Manchester store to get a few things. She didn't have her debit card with her, she had to pay cash. However, she is not familiar with how to insert the cash into the self service counter. Not only there was no help on hands, the person who was at last, reluctantly went to over showing my mum how to use the machine. My mum described this person's attitude was that of disrespectful! My mum is an very old lady, she has obviously struggled with modern technology, it doesn't take a lot of effort and time to help her and to show her what to do. What with the DISRESPECTFUL face?! Was it too much hard work? I personally find some of the TESCO staff are often rude! Is it because we are not white? I am very angry and so does my mum. We shall stop spending our money at any Tesco store from now on!!!!!

Didn't know this store has had a refurb but it's like any other Tesco Express (dinky Tesco if you like). Spirits behind staffed tills and wine/beer on shelves that shoppers can get. Perhaps all that is different than any other Express I've been in, is this store has self scan card only tills and these are much better than those seen in normal stores or larger stores as these don't go wrong every two seconds saying 'unexpected item in bagging area' or any other rubbish they like to come out with. There are normal self scan cash and card tills as well but these are temperamental.

  • Daniel Feingold

Crazy! this store has had a supposed refurb for which it closed! Inside all they have done is move a few goods around and massively reduced the selection and choice in several areas! This is especially true of the Free From Gluten Free section and the Chocolate. They have removed Chocolate Rice Cakes from Free From and 85% pure dark chocolate from the chocolate section! Avoid this store its offering very little choice!

I often come in to this shop due to it's handy location near the train station. It has a good mix of pre-prepared and ready to cook food, as well as other products expected of a small convenience store. Good range of drinks and snacks for my regular commute home too, and usually quick to pay thanks to many self-service tills in operation. Nice, chatty and helpful staff, especially Niall. Much appreciated!

  • Jay Shepherd

This is my local shop as I live in the Northern Quarter. The staff and security are always friendly and say Hi, I'm not entirely sure what time it closes because it says 11 on here but I'm sure they are closed well before then, I think it closes at 8/9pm through the week so make sure you don't leave your shopping until the last minute.

  • Alistair Gledhill

This is very good and well stocked Tesco store.the shop is usually tidy and the staff are helpful.it well located on London Road which is close to the main shopping area and local public transport.even though it's busy it isn't as busy as the store within Piccadilly Gardens and usually doesn't run out of stock as quickly..

The moment I stepped into this store, looking for a meal deal I knew it was the store for, supberb establishment. They had a bacon sandwich which impressed my girlfriend of such a specific cuisine. Overall a really great experience. Would have a been a 5 if it was even bigger.

  • Peter Lee

A handy little place if you're after essential items - pint of milk, loaf of bread, tea bags etc. They have a selection of ready meals etc. but this is a very, very small Tesco Express and is almost always busy. Good point: it has a cash machine just inside the entrance.

  • Ana Bestard Cassinello

Me gusta aunque me equivoqué con la palabra jenjibre en inglés y me compré unas galletas que picaban mucho y acabé pasando el mismo hambre con el que entré jo. Fue un fallo de mi persona humana, por el resto estaba bien, precio medio inglés y limpio y ordenado.

  • camilo gomez crafts

Went last night after work just to grab a drink for dinner, it was just 6 min before closing time but the door was already shut and they didn't let me in. They are suppose to close at 11pm not whenever the want!! I'm Not coming back to this one.

  • M B G

Great for all your shopping essentials! Lovely staff that’s always happy to help! Shelves are always stocked and the shop is kept clean on regular bases! It’s a pure pleasure to shop in here! They’ve got it all! Would recommend ✨

  • Bill Bennett

Call me racist or whatever you want but I expect to be able to communicate to super market staff in English in my country of birth couldn't make myself understood in this store by someone who just didn't seem interested

  • Robert Kavanagh

Got harassed waiting to use checkouts by 2 men who went on to pick pocket my bank card. Staff including security guard did nothing about 2 drunk men getting in other customers faces and just let them bother people

  • michael evans

Probably the worst tesco i have had the pleasure of using, have used most of the competitors in the surrounding area over the last week whilst visiting family and without doubt i won’t be back

  • Norbert Tokos

A Tesco close to the railway station and on the way to the city centre. Can get everything what is important for daily life. I love the "MEAL DEAL" - food, snack, drink for only 3 Pound!!!

  • Katie Taylor

Store says it is open til 11pm but refused entry at 10:50pm. Opening times shouldn’t say until 11pm if they are going to refuse customers. You close up and cash up AFTER 11pm. Shameful.

  • Rosh B

good to grab something quick during break or on the way to work. even if there is a line it usually moves quick because of the self service counters.

  • Stuart Taylor

Perfectly fine for grabbing a quick sarnie. Like pretty much every other Tesco Express it's a bit small, but it has everything you might need.

  • Jamal

Unfortunately to they don't stock the 1kg Nutella Chocolate spread, but they've always got Silk Cut Purple which is a welcomed bonus.

  • janet parris

Went this morning and the Asian man at the till was rude and ignorant. Never spoke to me and slammed the change on the counter.

  • Daniel Hughes

No customers service in morning they never serve any one just chat to each other why are they being payed they don't even work

  • Coinneach Hurford

Just really easy and quick to get to. Good for if you have forgotten anything or just want to go grab something quick.

  • Harry Radzuan

Great products and produce available. Fresh stuff are also sometimes on clearance so you can get yourself a bargain.

  • Mat

They open till 11pm but don’t let you in at 10:50pm to buy some vapes. What’s the point of being opened till 11pm…

  • michael west

Popular store at the heart of the Piccadilly transport hub. Wide selection of chilled drinks and sandwiches.

  • Adam Priestley

Don't go here for your lunch. The selection for the meal deal is awful and seems to get worse each week.

  • elvira Lopez

Fuimos los cuatro días que estuvimos en Manchester,y no está mal ,solo los dependientes un poco secos
