Its ok but I feel like they have less varieties on items then before they refurbished the supermarket. Definitely more spacious and cleaner but oddly too empty for my taste.

"More space but less stocks in store.. "

Also in Wing Yip centre right next to this supermarket, there is only a bakery, 1 restaurant opposite it which I do like going to but beyond that there is a chinese medicine store and a few random businesses which I'm not sure about. This Centre used to be filled with many interesting things and shops but has now downgraded to not much.

Large superstore with all your Asian grocery items from dry goods to frozen items and fresh fruit and vegetable as well as the fresh seafood and butcher counter and Joss offerings for your ancestors.
Prices are very reasonable compared to inflated prices in central London.
Plenty of parking space here too and located just next to a bus stop or a short stroll to waddon station.
There is also an excellent Chinese restaurant located on the same premises serving delicious dim sum and Chinese dishes. My go to Chinese supermarket

You will get everything Chinese here including live crabs and lobsters (pricey though). Canadian lobsters £37 per kg. If you like big king prawns you have to go there at 10am. Salespersons at the till are rude

A huge Asian Supermarket with a large selection of goods - it's strange to see where all the takeaways get their food from! Loads of space, plenty of staff and bulk buy is an option. The fresh counters seem to have gone down hill a bit recently and the prices are creeping up - but then I guess, given the climate, that's to be expected!

Amazing Chinese supermarket with huge selection. Prices have gone up considerably though due to recent cost of living increases.

Car parking is so silly: 4-hour limit on rear rooftop car park, but only 2 hours max in front of the store. No return in 2 hours. £100 parking fine!!!

Wing Yip used to be THE Chinese superstore to get all your Asian ingredients from. They do have a good range of products BUT can’t guarantee stock. Post pandemic it seems that there are more empty shelves than ever. It’s becoming a regular occurrence. The basics are usually in stock hit and miss at best. Still worth a visit.

Store is clean and workers are always on the shop floor to assist but that too, is hit and miss. One particular female member of till staff is rude and that’s speaking from my own experience and having witnessed others.

All in all it’s nice to see a diverse workforce.

Wing Yip is the most welcoming, the cleanest and most hygienic of ALL the chinese super store. I promise you won’t be disappointed at all. They have a good variety of products, reasonably priced. They also have a toilet facility in store. The customer service is good. I buy so much stuff from them. They have the best king prawns. Fresh Chinese products too. Fresh noodles. The restaurant in the shopping area is also very good. Excellent parking facility. Highly recommend A*

An old favourite of mine however recently been refurbished and the standards seem to have slipped a bit. Fresh fish counter no longer has live lobster or crab, no oysters or razor clams. Meet counter did not look fresh either. Frozen section low on several items however what we did get was amazing. Hoping this is all related to supply chain issues and that they step it up again. Will check back in the new year.
