A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver parked his truck near M&S Foodhall and noticed something odd on the ground. ‘What’s that strange mark?’ he asked himself aloud as he bent down to inspect it. Curious, he rubbed it with his finger—only to discover it was just a big smudge of chocolate spread from someone else's shopping bag. With a laugh, he shook his head and muttered, 'Another day in paradise!'

2. One night, a regular in M&S Foodhall overheard an argument between two cashiers. ‘Did you see that guy buy five jars of mayonnaise today?’ said one. The other replied, ‘Yeah, he always buys them on Thursdays.’ The first shrugged: ‘Weird, right? But what’s even stranger is that I’ve been buying six jars every Thursday for years now.’ Finally, one Thursday, a delivery driver noticed both men stocking up their cars with mayo. Curious, he asked if they were making some massive recipe together. With straight faces, they answered, ‘No, just covering our bets!’

3. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a delivery driver pulled up outside M&S Foodhall. He heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he opened the door just a crack—only to see rows upon rows of talking bananas singing along to some old tune. Startled, he slammed it shut and ran off, never to return again. But on quiet nights, locals sometimes swear they can hear that same cheery humming from behind those closed doors.
