I had a weird experience at Jumbo , Brusselplein today . Even though my bill was not completely scanned and half scanned with some products not been scanned along with few products which were scanned at self scanning . Based on the suggestion of the employee X at Jumbo she requested me to take a print of scanned items and proceed with rest non-scanned items at manual scan counter . While I proceeded there , appears a lady dressed in black suit ( I imagine them as a floor manager ), she gives a stare to check if my hand Cover is scanned and I told her it is not because all my products were not completely scanned as I mentioned above along with another fruit which was unavailable to be found in self scan menu and hence on suggestion of employee X I moved to manual. Since every body exchange their conversation in dutch , I was unable to figure out what they were talking about . The lady in black suit asks me to rescan all the products again , I did rescan and they couldnt find anything which they were waiting for to look down on me . Later they create a confusion why are there two bills , why did I generate a bill already without few items scanned . I did that because employee X asked me to do it . Questioning which country are you from from lady in black suit and warning not to do again ( even though I did not do anything scan or I lied that I scanned any of the stuff ) . I consider this as a racist behavior. I have been a frequent visitor to this jumbo since last 4 years , recent times it has become a fun that people take outsiders for granted and share laugh at our face. of course there are best experiences and best helpful people at jumbo in my 4 years . But today , I am very much disappointed when they start with questions of which country I am from , why is that even a starter question ? are you judging me from which country I am from ? how is that even related to ? This behavior is non professional , rude . Utrecht being an expat city , I do not wish to be treated this way here where i have an immense respect for Netherlands and people here . It is these few days and few experiences that questions me why are we treating people this way ? I take this as a complete disrespect to a customer . I hope this is taken care of next time by higher authorities . we are here to pay what we use things for and not to be looked down to when we have no reasons to look down for beginning with questions of from which country...
Read moreBiggest supermarket in the province with a food corner with excellent price-value breakfast/lunch/dinner. It's easy to reach by car and public transport, positioned in the heart of the shopping centre, has a small kids corner and washing room.
Breakfast: only available between 9.00 and 10.00. Jumbo is one of the brands (besides ikea, bakkerij bart, hema) that still offer a breakfast deal. It's priced at €3,5 and offers excellent value for the money (see picture for set). You get one piece of fruit (apple, banana),one croissant, one brown/white bread with ham or cheese, jam/butter,one orange juice and a warm drink (coffee/tea). I generally stop here for the breakfast.
Lunch/breakfast: since this is a 'la place' foodcorner it offers the basics that almost every la place has : hamburgers, pizza's, pasta, wok, fish, sushi and burittos (see pics for menu and prices). Nice touch is the free fruit-fusion water (for those who don't want to spend on drinks).
Note: it can get really busy during lunch and dinner. Because of the open seating space it can get really noisy. Also even though the supermarket is open until 22.00 the food corner is closed earlier.
Location: in the heart of the shopping centre of leidsche rijn, it's easy to reach with car (big parking space, free parking first 2h, when spending more then €10 at the jumbo first 3.5h is free) and...
Read moreI recently visited Jumbo Supermarket, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed with the overall experience. From the moment I entered the store, I was greeted by a clean and well-organized environment that made shopping a breeze.
The variety of products available at Jumbo is outstanding, covering everything from fresh produce to household essentials and specialty items. I found everything I needed quickly and easily, thanks to the clear signage and layout of the store.
One thing that stood out to me was the freshness and quality of the produce. It was evident that Jumbo takes great care in selecting their fruits and vegetables, as everything looked vibrant and ripe.
The staff at Jumbo were also friendly and helpful, offering assistance whenever I had a question or needed help finding something. Their customer service truly enhanced my shopping experience.
Another aspect I appreciated was the affordability of the products. Despite offering high-quality items, Jumbo's prices were competitive, making it a great option for budget-conscious shoppers.
Overall, I would highly recommend Jumbo Supermarket to anyone in search of a convenient and enjoyable grocery shopping experience. With its wide selection, quality products, and excellent customer service, it's definitely one of the top...
