Went to this store to stock up for a weeks supplies for our self catering holiday. There was little choice in the chill fresh cabinets and no staff at the till, self serve is cramped and slow! Recommend Budgens which was fully stocked, had plenty of choice and was fully staffed.

Very well stocked and laid out shop. Lots of variety and a nice big car park..

Despite being located in a tourism hotspot they don't seem to cope with demand. Visited twice, on different days at different times of the day and the choice of bread and meat on both occasions was ridiculously limited / non-existent. Should be better.

Bit expensive but it is a supermarket in a remote town

Previously I said: good value for money, but now I am getting out priced by Coop and I shop at Lidl or Aldi as my main supermarket, it's cheaper to travel and do your shop elsewhere. We need a discount supermarket in Swanage.

If you're a tourist, it's fine.If you rely on this place, good luck.They ID for Lucozade, I'm 24 years old. The man said I was clearly over 16 but would not give me my drink due to 'policy', jobsworths all over the place. I can buy two bags of instant coffee with over 20,000 mg of caffeine and drink it outside or eat a bag of sugar but a 90mg energy drink with eight grams of sugar - big problem.Talk about overreach, let people drink and eat what they want.

I was very disappointed to see the coop continuing to put profit above the environment and selling disposable barbecues in an area with a history of fires caused by disposable barbecues.

Busy bank holiday with lots of people in store. Lots of empty shelves but managed to get most of the items I needed.

Bit empty for such a large store, seems understaffed, and far more self checkout tills which are more convenient than normal tills but they aren't very easy to use and machine starts shouting at you the minute you touch anything, machine signals a employee the second you don't do what it asks.

I don't believe it , went into this shop yesterday they had no baskets available, the shop assistant said all the baskets have been stolen, how crazy is that

Not impressed the only nice thing I say about this place it has good parking what little food they had was over priced all day to day not in stock if you want pet food or drink you tells me people go else where for these items and the staff might just of been imported from the back woods of the deep South I'm still keeping my eye's open for a wicker Doll I found local store's such as spar have better stock at good prices so shop around is my best advice

Amazing little place to find in Swanage. Food prices along the prom can soon mount up, so grab a few treats on the prom and then get the rest at reasonable price in the co-op. Hungry larger family perfect compromise on a day out.

Swanage is SCREAMING out for a good, 'normally' priced supermarket, and unfortunately, this is the closest thing to it - it's pricey, has regularly empty shelves despite a huge refit a year or two ago, and there's only 2 other two choices in the area - cost cutters (who stock co-op produce) and Budgens, (I think owned by the same parent company as co-op), who all just seem to be out of step with what a local shop needs to be - yes it's locally positioned, but it's not a local shop - there a definite monopoly going on here! The staff are mostly good, so that's what the 2 stars are for.When will people wake up and realise we're over a barrel here? They are, in my opinion, ripping off local residents who have no other choice.Come on Tesco, Morrison, LIDL/ALDI etc.. where are you? Having to pay for parking to go and spend money is ludicrous, too!
