I agree. It’s so uninspiring these days. Their bakery has long been woeful. The baguettes are overpriced and underbaked. The shop selection very poor compared to M&S. the only bread worth buying in Waitrose is Gail’s not own brand
Agree, apart from the sushi bar I find them dire. My local Sainsbury’s is much better now. I used to really love a Waitrose weekend treat shop but now there’s nothing I want.You can see how far Waitrose have fallen by the lack of posts on this site, particularly in comparasion to M&S.
I've pretty much dumped Waitrose now. I used to go there for something a bit special but now take the drive to M&S as opposed to walking to Waitrose as there is barely anything there that I want anymore.
Went in there for a fancy quiche as they used to do some interesting ones such as Pear and gorgonzola and nothing other than the usual culprits, Bakery has gone to tit too.
The Waitrose Weekend newspaper has recipes in it as wellTheir recipe cards are good. They do have some lovely pastes so what I would do is develop 3 recipes using a jar of fancy paste. I tend not to buy the jars as I only cook for 2 and end up throwing the remnants away but if they had suggestions for 3 different ways to use a paste, I'd be more inclined to shop there.
