Yes, I agree. I`m afraid its a fact that the demographic of New Brighton is going to be different to that of Seacombe. Just as the east side of the Wirral is different to that of the west side. Any sensible retail business will have done its research and will know that. They may need to make some tweeks along the line but they will have a pretty clear picture as to who cooks and eats what and where

My wife & I decided to have our lunch in Morrisons cafe yesterday. The steak & ale pie was really nice, but I was really p****d off at being charged 8 pence each for 3 sachets of brown sauce. This is pure rip off.

Don't paint all Seacombe residents with the same brush!



I totally agree! We're not all fully paid up members of the fish, chips and mushy peas brigade I'll have you know! Actually, I have to say I'm rather impressed with the new Morrisons in Seacombe, sensibly laid out brightly lit store, pleasant well trained staff, a wide range of goods which seem cheaper than the New Brighton shop and the added bonus of the place not stinking of fish! Much better than the Tesco express too which is merely a glorified off license selling cheap booze.

Hope we get a fresh meat counter! When the building was a Kwik Save, the space seemed to be far better utilised than Netto ever managed.

I have a 'perve' when i pass, to look at the refurb. developments. Theres chest freezers on the back wall, where the pet stuff used to be and the tills seem furthur forward, than when it was Netto.


The Co-op in Trafalgar Road closed on the same day. Was it part of a bigger plan?
It certainly doesn't help those who can't walk too far. Nearest Morrisons is a mile and a half away, either way.

went shopping with the mother and found that the different cuts and selections of meat were ideal. being one who likes to cook different meals, the shops in seacombe have been pretty limited for my enthusiasm. hopefully the one in seacombe will also cater for people who do not cook instant ready meals via oven and microwave, nor just a vast selection of ready frozen stuff

I went there for the first time on Sunday. I don't know what all the fuss was about. It certainly is not the cheapest place to shop and I am not comparing it to Aldi, Lidi prices, Tesco beats it hands down it for pretty much all the stuff I usually buy. One common theme I noticed was that instead of having a lot of alternative lower priced budget ranges of products like Tescos does, you have no choice but to pay for the more expensive ranges a lot of the time.

Edit: I'm referring to the New Brighton one.

The pictures of old New Brighton in the foyer are interesting. Apparently New Brighton once had a "peir".
