Isle Of Wight Supermarkets (2022 guide)

You may want to support local food producers during your holiday but if not, then suffice to say, the Isle of Wight has the usual selection of supermarkets to pick from.

You'll find that the middle of the Isle of Wight and the East Wight are much better stocked for supermarkets than the West Wight or South Wight.

Newport

Newport has the best choice of supermarkets and they are all pretty near the town centre - the big ones are Asda (PO30 2QH), Sainsburys (PO30 5ZB) and Morrisons (PO30 1JQ) which have ample parking and cafes.

There are also branches of Iceland (PO30 1JE), Cooperative (PO30 1XB), Marks and Spencer (PO30 1XL) and Lidl (PO30 5GL).

Perhaps you could do a tour of them all in one day?

Ryde

Ryde has a whopping Tesco (PO33 1QS), which is a little way out of the town centre. There's also a Tesco Express on the way to Ryde from Newport at Wootton Bridge (PO33 4PL).

There is an Iceland (PO33 2RE) in the High Street in Ryde, as well as a town centre Sainsbury's (PO33 2DT) and some small Cooperatives (PO33 2SX, PO33 1BU, PO33 2UH).

Cowes and East Cowes

The Island's Waitrose & Partners is in East Cowes
(West) Cowes has a Marks and Spencer Simply Food (PO31 7XH), a small Sainsburys (PO31 7AY) and an Aldi (PO31 8PF). It was actually the Isle of Wight's first Aldi when it in 2013. I think we all remember the year that our local Aldi opened don't we? 

East Cowes has a fancy Waitrose and Partners (PO32 6SP). There's a chain ferry/floating bridge which links the two sides of the river.

Cowes is only a short drive to Newport, where there is a bigger range of supermarkets.

Sandown, Shanklin, Lake and Bembridge

The South East Wight's biggest supermarket is a Morrisons in Lake (PO36 9PA) although there's also a decent sized Aldi in Lake (PO36 9FT).

There's a small Sainsbury's in Sandown (PO36 8DE) as well as a small Tesco (PO36 9EH) and a Cooperative Foods in Sandown (PO36 9AN). There's also a Cooperative Foods in Shanklin (PO37 7AA). There's a Lidl in Shanklin (PO37 7HZ).

Bembridge has a small Cooperative (PO35 5SB).

Ventnor and South Wight

Hmm, um...there's not a huge selection around the South Wight. The Cooperative in the town centre (PO38 1ST) is a reasonable size and there's a small Tesco in the town centre as well (PO38 1LT). I'm afraid that's about it, so if you are staying in the South Wight or West Wight then you might consider a delivery.

Freshwater, Yarmouth and West Wight

Again, not a great deal of choice. Freshwater has a medium sized Tesco (PO40 9UU) which was previously a Co-op. There's also a Sainsbury's Local (PO40 9AL). 

One of our favourite little outings involves buying sandwiches in Freshwater followed by a short drive up the Military Road to the bumpy National Trust car park which overlooks Freshwater Bay. Good times.
