Woolworths Lifestyle Crossing

This is my FAVOURITE Woolworths. They stock such a diverse range of food.
I love going there when I really want to stock up in vegan delectables. Whether you’re gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, low-fat, low -carb…there’s everything.

I haven’t struggled with longs queues, the staff is very friendly. The produce is always fresh. The shop is always clean and organised. I have nothing bad to say honestly.

Very nice, large Woolies store. They just need to start stocking the fresh barbeque sticky wings, which never seems to be available at this store. Other than that, it's an amazing grocer.

I prefer not to shop here. Store layout causes a lot of walking around and there is always a long wait in the queue. Signage in the store could be better.

Woolworths Cafe quality of food has deteriorated every time I go and excessively overpriced for what you receive. On Sunday morning at 10am ordered the Pastrami sandwich, they were out of Pastrami, then ordered the Club Sandwich, this sandwich arrived with massive slices of bread, making it a very impressive looking sandwich, however, it was far from impressive, the filling was almost non existent :-( The bacon was over cooked more like biltong, the chicken was virtually non existent, cold wedges of tomato and cucumber and a thin slice of cheese for R96, for basically a half a loaf of bread, it is disgraceful. Service was poor, only two waitrons working on a busy end of month Sunday morning.
Previously ordered the Caprese Sandwich- bread wasn't as thick but there was so much Pesto on both sides of the bread it was inedible, the tomato was ice cold, the cheese was not melted.
They have also rearranged the restaurant, in a time when we are supposed to be social distancing and avoiding people, the pay point has now been moved to the back of the cafe, you now need to walk through the cafe to the kitchen to pay?????Definitely have lost a customer here, won't be spending my hard earning money paying for substandard tasteless food and poor service.

This woolworths is one of the bigger shops and really has a nice coffee shop and food. The reason I am rating it a 1 star is because even though the produce and shop floor is great, very often there is an imbalance between the in shop experience and the checkout experience. Often you are caught in massive queues waiting long periods for 50% of the tellers to work through a huge amount of people.

This boils down to poor managament for me, firstly the tellers are expected to bag all the groceries themselves slowing them down considerably. You could employ more staff members to help speed that up. Secondly the 4/5 tellers working there look like they have a mountain to climb because in my opinion they simply are over worked. Again just open up more tills on the busier days employ more people if needed.

As terrible as it sounds we often decide not to go to this Woolworths store quite simply because we don't want to deal with the queue(s). We often rather go to Impala Foods in the same centre for all our fresh fruits and veggies and go to Fleisherei for any meat products.

Woolworths is a premium store, I've not experienced this issue at any other stores. I simply expect better, Pick and Pay and Checkers get their queue system working fairly well most of the time. Surely this Woolworths can too.

Beautiful store. Conveniently located. Always battling to find full shopping list in one go. Specials many times sold out and today....empty shelves. For such an upmarket store...unacceptable.
