About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to M&S Foodhall one morning and exclaimed, ‘This is the third time today someone’s left their shopping cart in the middle of the aisle!’ Just then, an elderly gentleman approached, picked up the abandoned trolley, and said with a smile: ‘I’ll take that for my weekly shop, young man.’ The delivery driver shook his head and muttered, ‘That’s four times today!’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to M&S Foodhall one day with a crate of unusual-looking vegetables. As he unloaded them, an elderly neighbor stopped by to ask what they were. Without missing a beat, the driver replied, 'These are called "supermarket specials"—they grow only when nobody’s looking.' The old lady laughed and said she’d take some home for her soup. The next week, everyone in the neighborhood received a mysterious package labeled ‘Supermarket Specials.’ Turned out it was just ordinary veggies, but everyone agreed they tasted extraordinarily good.

3. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to M&S Foodhall with a crate of fresh produce. As he unloaded, he noticed an old lady standing in the mist, pointing towards the empty shelves and whispering something about missing prices. Curious, the driver approached her gently. ‘Excuse me,’ he said softly, ‘can you help me understand what’s wrong?’ The old lady replied, smiling warmly, ‘Oh dear boy, I’m just trying to find my favorite apples—always seem to be out of stock here.’ They both laughed, and from that day on, whenever anyone asked where those mysterious whispered complaints came from, everyone would smile and say, ‘Ah, it must’ve been Mrs. Smith, searching for her beloved fruit again!’

4. A delivery driver pulled up to M&S Foodhall one night with a crate labeled ‘Special Order.’ As he opened it, a strange voice echoed through the aisles: ‘Finally, someone who understands my taste!’ The delivery driver looked around nervously but saw no one. Smiling mischievously, he thought maybe it was just an old crate talking. He placed the crate carefully on the shelf and walked away. Later that evening, as a regular customer picked out some groceries, they noticed something odd—an apple seemed to wink at them from inside the crate. Turning to their neighbor, they whispered, ‘I think I’ve found our new mascot!’
