Probably the smartest supermarket in north Dorset. It's popular for it's quality and it's cafe. Standard Waitrose price structures to pay for that smartness and quality. Amazing alcohol selection. I went in for a good bottle of wine for a dinner party and frankly spent half an hour trying to chos. Chose Rhubard Gin in the end.
New café!
A big improvement.
Smaller range: no hot meals but this means more space, new tables and chairs plus the introduction of some rather nice booths nect to windows.
Outside seating
Wheelchair accessible
coffee is good.
WiFi.
Seems to have a little bit more of a selection than most Waitrose supermarkets! Cool selections of local goods scattered about and mostly overall, not bad prices. I've always been warned away from Waitrose but honestly it's not as bad as you'd imagine at all.
The food is really good, stays fresh for way longer than most supermarkets and seeks to be higher quality. Really reccomend.
Very up-market supermarket, beautiful produce, lots of choice, very helpful staff especially at the fish counter
Probably one of the best Waitrose stores I've been in, a very good selection of produce and very friendly staff.
Staff were helpful and cheery, very busy but lovely lady on the fish counter was super and reminded me about the 20%off on Fridays.
Very short queues for the tills, they were all open and fast..
Enjoyable break at the Waite and Rose café, friendly staff made it all the better.
I didn't buy anything in the main supermarket but stopped in the cafe today with some colleagues to grab a quick lunch ahead of a business meeting at a local company and have to say, the staff in the cafe were wonderful, very friendly and welcoming and clearly knew all of their regular customers, what their usual orders were etc and generally went the extra mile to provide excellent customer service to all, which was a pleasure to see.
This is a great store, we recently visited and with us we had our new puppy. I sat outside with the puppy while my wife shopped inside. Whilst waiting a member of staff came out to me and said the staff loved the puppy and presented me with a free bag of dog treats. Now that is customer care at its best. Thanks Waitrose Gillingham Dorset.
I just like shopping here. They have a wide range of pricey, but top quality items. I am a great believer in you get what you're willing to pay for. Staff are lovely and helpful, goods well laid out, things easy to find. Oh I don't eat kippers but husband says their to die for.
