"I was third in the queue at (not at the peak of a lunchtime rush) and the two people in front of me ordered and paid for their drinks and food (chicken curry and a soup) and were then told there would be to minute wait, even for the bowl of soup. As they were in a hurry they decided to cancel and get a refund. When my turn came, although I was looking forward to having Welsh Rarebit I was also told there would be a wait so decided to have a coffee and a cake. When I sat down there were ten other people in the cafe so the wait was inexcusable. I watched those serving. Normally, in restaurants, waiters are running around like blue tailed flies, but here if the three I saw had gone any slower they would have been walking backwards. After minutes they came out with the cancelled food (the curry and the soup) as the cancelled order had not been passed on to the kitchen. It was offered to people free but this was not taken up and taken back to the kitchen, presumably to be thrown away. So much for Waitrose's green credentials. I will not be visiting again, especially on a Saturday, as the cafe is obviously staffed by school kids who are under no adult supervision. If Waitrose want to benefit from being next door to a major train station, they need to realise that some of their customers might be time limited when calling in for something to eat. With regard to the green credentials, I have given up trying to get receipts recycled. I have been told by Head Office that they are shredded and recycled but when I ever mention this to staff I get the response that's news to me"

I’m a regular visitor for a few staples and treats. It’s not my main shop but definitely the go-to supermarket when I’m cooking something special or looking for nicer foods.

My favorite restaurant - excellent for almost everything except for the fresh cream Profiteroles. It's a shame they no longer make the Coronation Coleslaw - it was delicious!

Great shop in a new location which is so convenient for car train users, not so much for bus users. Clean lovely shop full of lots of good organic food stuff. The staff are also very nice friendly. Excellent for wines spirits.

This cafe is always a popular spot for me to meet friends, mainly because of the ample parking and early opening hours. The tables are usually clean and there are plenty of seating options, which is especially nice when the weather is nice. However, the staff can be slow to prepare drinks when they are working alone, and lines can quickly form during peak hours.

Stopped by this large, conveniently located Waitrose to buy food and supplies before catching our train from the station. It’s really helpful to know this store is situated right next to the train station and very useful. Always enjoy their pastries. The turnovers and Chelsea...buns were very good and we experienced very pleasant and helpful service from one of the Partners. As expected, another enjoyable visit to Waitrose. View menu

Waitrose excels at creating a worthwhile shopping experience. Next to Peterborough station it is well placed to enhance arrival/departure experience. And depends on mainstay of regular shoppers choosing to shop at Waitrose. The staff are exceptionally helpful. Merchandise is second to none. The restaurant is...a comfortable place to take a break. As a MY Waitrose' card holder I feel valued. Therefore I can select my shopping in a comfortable environment and also enjoy one of the best coffees on offer in Peterborough. Then go directly to the Queensgate bus station with my free Guardian newspaper (that gets recycled). There is an option to choose the Telegraph (for free) and hours free car par...

I visiy the city centre area on a regular basis and have started using the café over the last few weeks. I have been a vegetarian for around years so I tried the vegetarian set options. Eggs Florentine, poached Eggs as savoury options and...Pancakes as a sweet option. I was very impressed with all three meals. The Florentine was as I expected, well presented and tasty. The poached eggs accompaniments were a pleasant surprise hummus, avocado, vine tomatoes and rocket. The flavours complimented each other delicious. Baby vine tomatoes has been a new experience for me with a breakfast and definitely a plus point. The pancakes made a pleasant change and were tasty and well presented. I usually d...
