Tesco Extra Durham

About Tesco Extra Durham

Tesco Extra at Dragonville is Durham's largest supermarket, sitting on Dragons Lane within the Dragonville Retail Park off the A690 on the eastern side of the city and easy to reach from Gilesgate, Belmont and the surrounding areas. As a full Extra-format store it carries the complete grocery range alongside clothing, homewares, electricals and a café, and it keeps very long hours, trading around the clock on weekdays, which makes it the go-to for a big shop or a late-night essential. There is generous free parking on site.

Its retail-park location puts it alongside other big-name stores including Aldi, Lidl, Iceland and TK Maxx, so it suits a one-stop trip out of the centre. For everyday convenience there are also smaller Tesco Express and other convenience stores dotted around the city and university areas. Opening hours can change on bank holidays, so it is worth checking before a late visit.
