    The store was clean and well stocked. The staff who were packing shelves or serving at the deli was friendly and helpful. The cashiers are however quite slow and they are forgetful when it comes to SPAR rewards.

    Good supermarket open 24 hrs with all the basics, and good cooked food. The sushi is tasty and reasonably priced. Parking can be hard to find during busy times, but queues move quickly.

    I recently had the pleasure of shopping at SPAR in Grahamstown, and I must say that it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I entered the store, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. One of the standout features of this SPAR location is its fantastic customer service. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and always willing to assist. They went above and beyond to ensure that I had a pleasant shopping experience, answering my questions and offering helpful suggestions. Their dedication to customer satisfaction truly made a difference. The store itself was well-organized and easy to navigate. The aisles were clearly labeled, and the products were neatly displayed. I was impressed by the wide variety of items available, from fresh produce to pantry staples and household goods. SPAR had everything I needed, and the quality of the products was consistently high. I also appreciated the store's commitment to supporting local suppliers and offering a range of locally sourced products. It was refreshing to see a grocery store that valued the community and showcased local produce and goods. The pricing at SPAR was competitive, and I found the deals and promotions to be quite appealing. I felt like I was getting good value for my money, and it made my shopping experience even more satisfying. Overall, SPAR in Grahamstown is a top-notch grocery store that excels in customer service, product variety, and quality. I highly recommend this store to anyone in the area looking for a pleasant and convenient shopping experience.

    I gave SPAR Oak Cottage a 5-star because their 24-hour service saved my friend and me from sleeping hungry last night 😄 They were still open when other shops in Makhanda had closed.

    I've watched this Spar grow from a convenience garage shop to the mega shop it has become. One of my favourite quick stops around Grahamstown.

    Super clean place in a quiant small town. It's more of a convince Spar don't be thinking you will do your groceries there. I came super early like 3AM. If you want to use the toilet you cough up a small 2 ZAR. They clean with soap and stuff. Staff members we generally nice.

    Just had the worst experience, I bought two fried chicken pieces, only to discover when I took the first bite that they are rotten. They actually stink, I'm not sure where was quality control and how this happened but its grossly neglegent and should not be allowed to happen.
