The Laziest Food Shop In England

Finally took you to the wonderfully lazy Marks and Spencer's food hall. Is it the British version of Erewhon?

[@alisab3041]

American here. We often shop at M & S when in London because we stay for 1-2 weeks at a time and save money by eating from grocery stores or small shops versus restaurants, plus it’s healthier. We enjoy the cultural experience of shopping there too. Food is 10-30% higher here and in the US it’s often taxed 6-10%, varies by state. Items like those bakery goods, cheese trays, etc. are convenient for tourists. Crossing my fingers that your new Labor government will work to lower your energy costs! Thanks for taking us shopping, Hannah!!

So much fun swanning round M&S with you. ‘Beige picky bits’ was my favourite. I think summer has been a bit of a rollercoaster everywhere so far. Fingers crossed for the rest of July and August. Thanks, Hannah!

Thanks Hannah. When I was in London last year, my friend and I stayed about two blocks from that exact M&S. Every night we stopped by to pick up something for dinner and breakfast the next day. In two weeks I think we only ate out 4 times. Just loved M&S! And yes, to us in Los Angeles, the food there is so cheap!

Those people have probably never stepped foot in England and are just going by old stereotypes 😴

[@L.V.1]

Living in the US now, I have found that when you challenge someone to tell you what about British food is not good, they can’t because they have either never been or they went for a few days and ate in crap tourist traps serving “Americanized” food. The reputation Americans have about British food comes from American soldiers who were there during and immediately after WWII. There was severe rationing for TEN YEARS after the war ended. People had nothing to eat and had to make do. Classic British food (roast beef, lamb, cheeses, etc.) is some of the best in the world!

Wow, Hannah a monthly food vlog will be wonderful indeed. This M&S vlog is so cool! It really has very good products and the prices seem to be good too.

[@catherineyee7314]

You hit the nail on the head with your comment about US viewers and food prices. Every time I watch a UK video with food shopping I am shocked to see how inexpensive food is compared to the US. I love M&S Food Hall visits when I am in the UK and make sure to always stop in to stock up on their milk chocolate teacakes as I am addicted. Enjoy your videos and being able to see sights around London as I have not managed to visit is several years.

We bought not only food, but laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, paper towels, paper cups, paper napkins, and the like to use at our Airbnb. We had an overflowing cart and it cost 161 pounds! Everything we bought would have been twice the cost at home! Lovely store, that M & S! We loved everything we bought!

I spent 6 weeks in the the UK last year and M&S was my go to for food!! The variety is insane! We do not have anything like it in Australia. The supermarkets are starting to get more 'on the go' food but nothing like over there. I loved just grabbing a wrap & fruit for lunch, sitting in a park eating them and continuing on with my exploring. I didn't find the prices unreasonable for the quality of the food. I loved the chicken ceaser wraps but I was sick of them after 6 weeks 😂by eating light and doing all the walking around England and Scotland, I lost 6kg! Surprised by the origin of some of the fruit you picked up too! Great video, I miss London 😍 PS: please be careful with your phone on the street! Mine was stolen on Oxford street 😭

You’ve got it wrong, the value range in M&S is cheaper than Aldi, the fresh chicken £1.50 for two chicken quarters, £1.75 for wings, value vegetables less than other supermarkets and the quality is second to none, Hannah if you don’t believe me check all the supermarkets out. The expensive items are meat and fish but having said that the flavour, the quality, excellent. XX

As an occasional visitor to London, staying in apartment style hotel accommodations, I definitely favor locations that are near an M&S Simply Food. Nothing like getting off a 14 hour flight, checking in, and indulging in reasonably-priced pre-prepared tastiness at M&S back at the hotel.

[@christettec3045]

I really enjoy your shopping videos. My sister and I were in London last September and visited the places you show in your videos in central London. A difference that I noticed between the food in London compared to where I live in Canada is that the serving sizes are smaller. For instance, for a pack of buns, the buns would be packaged in 8 or 12 buns per package. Also, the meat packages show 4 servings of meat, whereas in Canada it would be at least 8 servings. Honestly, in my opinion, we don't need such big serving sizes. Your cost of 42 pounds would be about 75 Canadian dollars. I absolutely fell in love with London and hope to visit again soon. Thanks for your videos!

[@daven2505]

Im a Brit over in Massachusetts for one more year and yes the food prices are 40-60% higher and of a far lower quality. When we are shopping we spend most of the time in the supermarket looking at the ingredients and putting it back. High fructose syrup, GMO, dangerous food colouring, hormone injected beef, bleach washed chicken, trans fats and farmed salmon feed with artificial colouring to give the fish a brighter red colour. All banned in UK & EU. As for the bread its full or sugar, why? We mostly buy organic but that puts the price up even more so that basket you brought if you could find it all would be at least $120 and lower quality. Considering the Uk is out of the single market so the costs of bringing in Eu imports is higher now but still much lower than the States and they are self sufficient in most of their produce. It's just a rip off but. Lastly the packaging on most food looks as though it's been designed in the 1950's and never updated. Only one more year!!

[@anaalves3658]

I go to a Marks Food shop two times a week Hannah. As they cater for people who dont want to cook every day with such a marvellous selection of top quality food it certainly is a lovely temptation.Another great food video Hannah.

Good Afternoon, Hannah, I enjoyed watching your KZbin video! It is definitely a helpful video to tourists who are not aware of the range of groceries offered at M and S, Many years ago when I visited the UK I would shop at the Food Hall at M and S instead of having a sit-in meal at a restaurant or a pub, Thank-you for the video and I look forward to watching next weeks KZbin videos, Alister Ian Hoult, Carrying Place, Ontario, Canada.

Having been to the Beverly Hills Erewhon many times- It's nothing like M&S Food Hall (which I shop at 4 visits a year). Erewhon has no holiday spirit such as Christmas decor and treats. I shop at this M&S because I find it so inexpensive compared to American food shops. I buy the Erewhon smoothies for 18.00. My friend purchased the ingredients at Erewhon for a pizza. The total was 150.00! I've purchased oxygen infused water at erewhon for 20.00. That being said my utility bill for electricity is typically 60.00 a month even in the winter with heat. Now I'm craving the M&S smoked salmon sandwich. so good and so simple!

Electricity for only 60$? Damn, we pay 300$ every month! This is in Germany.

[@heatherj9029]

@@PinkIsAwesome361 I’m in Pennsylvania USA. We have a gas bill for the clothes washer and dryer but that is 16.00 a month. Water/sewer is 15.00 a month.

I miss Marks & Spencer... it was a real treat when we lived in Ireland to go to Galway (closest to us) and do some shopping at Marks & Sparks. Since moving back to California I have fallen in love with Sprouts - but they don't have the variety of ready made foods that M&S do. Great video Hannah!

Oh I loved this! I have lived in Portugal for 32 years but prior to that I always got my food shop from M&S (working long hours, no time to prepare/cook food). I was very surprised at the prices - they seemed quite affordable in comparison to here. Yes, people do say how expensive food has become in Portugal and I live just outside the main tourist town of Albufeira which doesn’t help. I have been widowed for sometime so am still inclined to go for the ready prepared food such as salads, olives etc. - I really can’t be having washing up a load of dishes just for one person. 🙄 Thank you for the video, I used to have an office just by the Pantheon M&S in Oxford Street. Happy memories. ❤

American here. This seems more like Trader Joe’s and not Erewhon. Maybe Whole Foods but this food is much cheaper than Whole Foods.

[@pamnozari9254]

I live in Florida and our food prices are so much higher here compared to your prices. Some things here are twice as much as what you showed us at M & S. Your groceries would have cost $70 here.

I LOVE Marks&Sparks for food shopping. I used it daily in South Africa under the Woolies brand name) and really one would never have needef to cook for any meal or dinner party. The best quality, prepared beautifully, almost worth the insanely high bill😅. Thanks Hannah for another fun video☘️

[@Buns1172]

We certainly enjoyed this video 👏👏. And yes, we actually did our weekly shop at M&S today 😊. Thank you 👍👍

[@derekantill3721]

Hi Hannah. Glad I wasn’t in London for today’s summer day ( 5th July ☔️😱 ) M & S food store is always good quality, well worth a visit. ❤

[@beth-eileenwalker8579]

Erewhon is very expensive, it makes Whole Foods look like a dollar/discount store! Please don't waste your time going into one while you are vacationing here in the States.... Love your waffling... now, back to the shopping!

[@RosemaryStudy]

I cannot believe how cheap your food is and everything wrapped up and ready to go! Oh, how I would love that! I bought one roast last week (not a great one, either), and it was $24! Bread is $4.99. Eggs up to $7 - butter, you don't want to know1 $6.90! I want to move back to the UK! I am food-jealous!!

[@murpone]

I truly enjoy your descriptive visuals on the go ! Fantastic ! You're never a loss of words . As fluid as a radio announcer . Indeed, you get a double thumbs up ! Yeah, the chronicles of Hannah .

[@dtreski03]

I have never been to the store in Cali. I’m from NY, upstate NY, and M&S is always one of my first stops when I come to the UK. I have never felt it was expensive at all and love all the prepared foods!

[@RhedwanRussool]

Monthly food logs would be most welcome,all the shopping films you had on your channel recently got me hooked ie charity shops etc,like a good shop!Enjoy the rest of your summer in the ukCheers!

Loved this M&S food shop! Yes, please more food vlogs. You do a great job!

[@tinaschaaf4490]

M&S is less expensive than grocery stores in Toronto, Canada!!! Enjoy all of your videos! I had an afternoon tea at The Wolseley a few months ago while visiting. Hoping you and Nat will go there soon!!!
