In March this year Sainsbury's announced it would be closing 200 eateries in a shake-up of its indoor dining, but that its café at Emerson's Green would remain open. Out of all the Sainsburys cafe's in Bristol, why is this one remaining open, is it their food? Their service? Their coffee? BristolLive thought we would go and check it out.
Upon arrival I was greeted by friendly staff, there was only one person in the queue before me so I took a few seconds to look around. It wasn't so busy that I couldn't choose a nice spot to enjoy my food, everyone was enjoying themselves with friends and family.
There was a range of ages dining in - two young mums and their children having some breakfast and a few older ladies meeting up for a coffee. There was also a woman completing some work on her laptop - the café has booths that you can plug in and work from, which is very convenient.
