After being treated like cattle one too many times by the big chains, I was looking for an independent supermarket with a good product range, especially in fresh produce. I heard about LaManna via word of mouth. I swear I will never go back to the other ones!
LaManna has a huge selection of grocery items - almost everything I used to buy at the big chains but with more than just "home brand" products and one other brand. You get a true selection. In addition to groceries, there is the fresh produce; there's fresh fish, seafood, fruit and veg and all types of meat - your standard chicken, beef, pork and lamb, PLUS veal, rabbit, goat, quail, duck etc. There is fresh fruit juice, home-made dips and a cake section to die for. There's also a bulk-buy section, a liquor section and fresh flowers. The staff are friendly and helpful, there are random specials (eg. lucky door prizes, free products if you spend a certain amount, 10% off your total bill), plus a customer loyalty program - free gift on joining (for free) and then you accrue points everytime you shop. There is also a cafe. Parking is ample, use of trolleys is free. I've never been happier to do the shopping.
