  • The last of the big 6 superstores John Lewis after completing my experiment of all the superstores MORRISON’S is the winner although I wouldn’t go back there as everything was lukewarm and that goes for them all.

    Shocking is an understatement Greg! From a place like John Lewis you’d expect a lot better. The customer service too, the young chap who served you could not be bothered. I hope John Lewis see this video and up their game!

    A good honest review Greg! I'm actually not surprised that John Lewis didn't have a Full Breakfast on the menu - it doesn't really fit with somewhere that boasts about their virtuous 'carbon neutral coffee' at the entrance. Moreover the venue looked pretty lifeless and corporate, not somewhere I could relax and eat a meal. Watching your reviews have made me appreciate the small independent businesses, like Sivori's on Edgeley. Keep up the great work Stocky from another new subscriber. 👍👍

    The price is bad 👎 but was it hot Greg? 😅 I've watched the 6 reviews now & yes i think Morrisons is the best one. Like i said in one of the other ones, my local Morrisons 👎 Weston Morrisons 👍 My M&S closed years ago & never had a John Lewis, though did have a Debenhams but never tried their food. Our BHS has gone, but we have Poppins back. Years ago our Peacocks had a cafe in (no Peacocks now) & the food there was good. Great reviews, yes, you're better off avoiding supermarket cafe breakfasts, the drinks are alright though 😊😊
