Tesco Express

The staff are amazing and have to put up with stupid questions all day from the general public!!! This is in reply to JAYDEN ROBINSON! If you are going to bad mouth members of staff, please remember to state the whole conversation! You asked if they sell bigger bags of carrots you got told no, you then asked a member of staff for a SKEWER, then went on to say ‘you know a metal skewer’ you really shouldn’t be mad with the staff if they can’t read your mind and know that you want something to clean with and not to cook with,

Visited 4 nights in a row during pre Christmas and were pleased with the service. We were tourists in the bowness and the kids were looking for some good ice cream but they were short on those. Otherwise well stocked and good place to stop by for your groceries

I was out with friends in Bowness a few weeks ago & got bitten on the face by an insect. I rushed to Tesco to grab antihistamines as it had started to swell pretty terribly.

Lovely Mandy served me. She went above & beyond to make me feel better & take me to the side so she could go grab some bite cream out her own personal belongings to help me. I managed to continue my night & I have lovely Mandy to thank for it.

Thank you Mandy in Bowness! I wish there was more kind people like you in the world, willing to help strangers. Tesco-please recognize Mandy for her great service!! x

I read all these extremely negative reviews on Google regarding this very handy Tesco Express store at Windermere and went fully prepared to confront these reported rude and racist staff. Rudeness may be tolerated to some extent, but not racism in any form - direct or indirect. Given who we are and what we look like, we were expecting the worst. We were very surprised by the extra friendly treatment we got from the white British lady in her 50s at the checkout and the other staff going about stacking the shelves in this very busy store. My guess is that the store managers have taken notice of the comments here and taken action. Therefore, based on what we experienced (and the very good prices, as we have Tesco Clubcard) I shall give them 5 stars.

Not a bad little Tesco.
Yes, it's small and compact but what do you expect, there's just not enough space in the town. Despite it's smaller dimensions it's pretty well stocked, they sell familiar products at a decent price. The staff are quite normal and polite, don't get me wrong, they're not over friendly or super chatty but who wants that nowadays, you just want to buy your stuff and get out.

Nice place staff can be ok you do get the odd rude one and there are a handful who are brilliant and can have a good laugh. While the store is small you do get a few people who don't talk English who are very rude and will push you and take items from your basket so keep a good watch out if I was you but over all its a good store

they sell
mint cakes here

Staff have cheered up in the last 9 months. They always offer a friendly hello early in the mornings 😀. A good selection of crossaints are usually available and the shelves always fully stocked.
