Iceland is the original frozen food specialist, started back in the 1970's and one famous gentleman , who I understand used to turn up at any of his 400 stores randomly in his helicopter with a suitcase full of cash to give to the staff as a thank you for all their hard work ! . Most just send you a thank you at Christmas and a card if you're lucky ! .”

“Just visited for the first time after it was recommended to me. I came away with a selection of amazing new things to try. The lady that served us couldn’t have been anymore helpful & polite, being a new vegan it can be quite daunting but the help & advice we received was great. The selection of fresh food is amazing. You won’t find food like this in most supermarkets. We will definitely be regular customers.”

“Since the recent revamp of the co-op I call into this shop regularly - it's stocked so much better now to enable you to do more of a full shop. The staff are all welcoming & helpful, they have some great offers on - I can't fault it! Definitely recommend.”

“Very handy store with convenient parking, not always the cheapest but is very ethical so you cant complain. Never had an issue with any product from Co-op and are usually of the slightly higher quality and that is why the prices can be slightly more as you pay for quality. Timperley co-op is well maintained and the staff are always pretty chatty and polite and the store is well stocked.”

“Good stock and variety of groceries, long opening hours are very convenient”

“Exceptional food, cannot believe some people rank it down, because they don't like veg. They have two menus one for European clientele, your usual Chinese but very tasty and equally tasty Chinese menu for adventurous tastes.”

“Stayed here solo while on a two-day break, was fairly priced and also easy to get to and from the city centre on the tram. Also love the location right next to Heaton Park, started off one of my mornings with a walk around it. The room itself, like the hotel, wasn't exactly modern but it was still very comfortable and spacious so can't ask for much more! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Booked myself in for breakfast on my last morning, which was tasty. Really enjoyed my stay here, look forward to the next one!”

“The staff always go out of their way to help and make sure you get everything you need. The shop is always clean and there is always a member of staff stacking the shelves whenever you go in.”

“A local Co-Op store, but always well stocked, clean and the staff are amazing. There's freshly baked bread, fresh fruit and veg, a good stock of cooked and uncooked fresh and frozen produce. Regular offers for loads of items including alcohol, snacks and more nutritious goods. As best as possible, the one-way system works. There's a hand gell and cart sanitisation station too. For a local store, it's great!”

“Great store. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Loving the discounts, and the way the are enforcing social distancing is really good. Would be nice if you got some cheese sandwiches in, I love 'em! P.S The blonde girl with the glasses who works there is really fit!”

“The staff are always polite and the tall gentleman on security is possibly the nicest person in the building. One time i was carrying too much to the self checkout and he just started helping, he always says hello and goodbye when he recognises us. Co-ops are kind of expensive but it’s just so convenient shopping here and the hours are very consistent so it’s become one of our go to stores really. The £6 bundle deals are also excellent when it’s the end of the month and the freezers are a bit empty!”
