The new outlet is managed by One Retail, part of the food and support services business Compass Group UK & Ireland. It features an on-site bakery, fresh fruit and vegetables, snacks, drinks, packaged goods and toiletries and a Christmas product range.
One Retail has invested more than £800,000 into the new site. More than 30 jobs have also been created as part of the project, including staff transferred from the former Amigo shop. M&S Food is open from 7am-8pm daily.
Andy Jones, managing director at One Retail, said: “We are delighted to open M&S at Southmead Hospital. It’s an excellent facility and we have worked hard to create an environment that is welcoming for NHS staff, patients and visitors.
“We know it can make a big difference to those at the hospital to have access to good food and drink facilities, and it’s been a great opportunity to enhance and widen the food offer available on site.”
