Coles Parramatta Entrada

I really do love this Coles, though it’s not strictly my local.
They’re always fully stocked with everything a good Coles Supermarket should have.
It’s always spotlessly clean, and the staff are friendly, prompt, efficient, and welcoming. Though, I’ve been rushed through a checkout a twice here [by 2 different staff members] I won’t hold that against them.
Parking is a misery here as the spaces are tight, and a little hard even for the most experienced of drivers to negotiate. Do yourself a favour, and walk if you can.
Supermarkets aren’t often remarked for their atmosphere, but this one deserves a positive note. It’s well lit, and always well air conditioned to suit the season, so you can do your shopping in comfort..

My go to supermarket because the hours are good, I’ve always found parking quickly & easily & quick checkouts so you can get in & out in quick time with minimal fuss because who wants to waste their life in supermarkets.
Decent enough fresh fruit & veges & deli but is missing a few options in basic groceries which can be a bit frustrating when you’re after something specific & have to go elsewhere for one or two things you couldn’t get.

I love my local Coles. I wish I lived upstairs from this place. There’s a ton of supermarkets in the Parra area and although this is a drive for me, its in my opinion, the one that consistently offers the freshest fruit and veg.
They have a seafood section (handy for last min purchases). There’s a smorgasboard of cheese for your own selection next to the deli counter.
They have turkey breast, thigh and mince (which is a rare find in other stores like woolies). The aisles make sense. except for that very first one after the fruit and veg — its always the ‘reject’ aisle. its where seasonal stuff is dumped (like discounted easter eggs, or maybe blankets).
They have done away with a lot of the checkout counters and have installed a HEAP of the self service ones, so if you aren’t a fan of the self serve, prepare to wait a while. speaking of, if the manager of this coles happens to stumble across this review, let me be the first to congratulate you on one of your checkout lads — this kid had ALL customers in stitches. even the couple in front of me spent a good minute after having paid just hanging about hooked on the convo — how refreshing!
Parking is great here too. on-​street or down the ramp and under Coles (first 3 hrs free I think? Or is it 2 hrs?).

The best part about this Coles is the convenience, for Parramattians. Ever since this opened no more navigating the chaos carpark of Westfield Parramatta and their lack of late night hours. They have easy access underground parking with 3hr free parking cause like, whose shopping at Coles longer than that really.
They have a surprisingly large and variant range of products, including their own in-​house fresh bakery and deli. They cater to halal and kosher if you’re down with that also. Considering the space they have to work with, they have an extensive coverage of meat, dairy and frozen foods. I can literally find all my groceries and then some here. The self checkouts are the greatest invention ever as I seem to buy alot of «carrots».

Located on the corner of Victoria and Church St, Parramatta. At this destination you will find Entrada where you have residential and retail.
This Coles supermarket is located on the ground floor and has only been open a couple of years and it still feels brand new. (oh so shiny)
It opens everyday from 6am to midnight and is massive!
Parking can sometimes be a tight squeeze as its underground so if you have a big vehicle– be warned.
Great option of you don’t want to go to Westfields.
