May Bank holiday is upon us but if you’re wondering when supermarkets such as Aldi, Lidl, TESCO, Sainsbury’s and Co-op are open then this is your go-to guide. Today (May 6) marks the early May bank holiday which means there is a long weekend for people across the UK.
As is the case with many bank holidays across the UK, supermarkets have slightly altered opening times. As many know in London the smaller convenience stores such as Saisnbury’s Local and TESCO Express have different opening and closing times to their larger counterpart stores – but if you’re heading out to the shops today it’s a good idea to check opening times before embarking on your journey with bag for life in hand.
MyLondon has compiled a list of the opening and closing times of each supermarket this bank holiday, according to their website. Find out more below.
