The store stocks a wide selection of everyday essentials, including fresh and chilled food, drinks, newspapers, magazines, toiletries and stationery.

Shoppers can also pick up Tesco's popular meal deals, while a Costa Coffee machine provides hot drinks for those looking for a caffeine fix while visiting the town centre.

The shop features plenty of refrigerated space for chilled products, alongside a selection of beers, wines and spirits.

With Christmas fast approaching, the new store is also stocking festive products, including advent calendars and Christmas decorations.
