    I am not a big fan of this place. Every time I go here there is no parking at all. There are 10 tills with only one or two being operated even in the busiest times. It has good prices and nice discounts with the checkers card but it's not worth the time you waste looking for parking and waiting in a very long que.

    Very quite in the evenings! Thankful for easy parking and a store that had plenty to offer. The teller was friendly and the staff where helpful. The parking was very small and can imagine when other stores are operating it can be busy and tough to get a parking.

    Conveniently situated and provides delivery via 60/60 app. The food wasn't sufficiently fresh, chicken not as advertised and fruit salad was off for example as they put watermelon in with other fruit. the customer service was just acceptable. There is not enough parking in the center so I would recommend walking or using delivery if you need anything from here.

    Very nice store, however parking appears to be a problem. There should be clear signage in this regard or a car guard should be employed. There was two cars ahead doing nothing at the entrance to the shopping complex. I was not sure what was happening with them as there was no indication from them while there was cars build up towards the road behind. So I decided to go ahead of these cars and look for parking ahead. So the man in the Audi who was in front of at me at the entrance took exception and parked next to me saying its his parking. So I got out my car and asked him to roll down his window to find out what the problem was. He indicated that it is his parking as he had been waiting. I said no way, you were at the back doing nothing with no indication that you wanted going to park there and this was causing a bolt neck he then became verbally abusive showing me signs. I parked my car and got my groceries. At the teller point he came to and started verbally abusing me in front of the teller. I don't think she paid much attention. I estimate the man to be 55 years old then starting pointing fingers at me. I asked should I call security to remove you because of your aggressive nature. To which he indicated that I was not a man and he would get me. He then left me alone. My solution to issues like is simply employ a car guard to redirect traffic coming into the complex. He will make enough money from the tips. Thanks

  • 3/5 Jolandi W. 1 year ago on Google
    A favourite grocery store. But difficult to move due to packers, boxes and stacks of stock. Management committed to clean up. Let's see.

    Went in for last minute Xmas shopping, the shop was properly stocked, we got everything we needed and the staff was available to assist. The shop is clean and tidy.

  • 4/5 Sarah-Lee F. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice checkers. Parking can be a pain when busy and exiting into the traffic can be challenging. Overall a good shopping experience

  • 3/5 Dylan Dylan D. 1 year ago on Google
    Good store but check expiry dates on microwave meals and inspect the chicken breasts properly before purchasing. The fresh produce is excellent.

  • 4/5 Thabiso Vuyo H. 1 year ago on Google
    It's neat and well situated, there's a liquor outside and they're rarely packed. The parking is decent although not big enough for busy days. They have enough cashiers I guess but there's not always enough packers.

  • 4/5 Sonic F. 1 year ago on Google
    Busy, busy, allways, busy. Good amount of parking. Well run store. I'd return when next in East London. It's not my favourite Checkers in East London though

  • 3/5 David R. 1 year ago on Google
    Could have more tills open at peak times. Went there after work and more than half the tills were closed. This meant standing in a queue again. The last thing I want to do after a long day working in the heat outdoors.

  • 4/5 Rob W. 10 months ago on Google
    Great store. Good prices. Large variety in stock. Sufficient disabled parking that is supervised. Will definitely buy here again.

  • 5/5 Kim J. 11 months ago on Google

    Always a pleasure to shop at Checkers Nahoon. Produce always fresh. Bakery is great. Staff very cheerful and helpful. Would encourage anyone to shop there.

  • 2/5 Kudzai P. 2 years ago on Google
    May you please Please redo the road surface markings at the entrance. They’re so faint. The entrance is so wide and yet entry and exit is confined to a narrow space on the left.

  • 5/5 Don K. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best Checkers shops that I have been to. Neat and fully stocked. All items were priced and good quality in the bakery and deli. Good service. Usually I am very critical about supermarkets.

  • 4/5 Kayla G. 1 year ago on Google
    Really an awesome store loads of goods . Love the fresh goods and butcher, store is well kept clean and organized. Only issue is the extended parking area is not in good condition.

  • 4/5 Virtually East L. 2 years ago on Google
    Busy as Checkers Nahoon may be, the friendly and professional service is always on point. Please also note the all access ramp they have giving wheelchairs and trolleys to all the shops on site. They also have a wimpy here, for a quick bite after that family shopping.

  • 4/5 Daleen H. 2 years ago on Google
    I get my groceries from them every month. Their prices are really good. I always end up saving a lot more here than at other stores. They have good quality products.

    Nothing spectacular about it, it could've been placed in Alexandra for its convenience.
