There is more than one Asda in Newport, so an opening-times search needs an address before it needs a timetable. The branch officially named ASDA Newport is the Superstore at Pencarn Way, Coedkernew, Newport NP10 8XL.
That store normally opens at 8am on Monday, 6am from Tuesday to Saturday and 10am on Sunday. The supermarket closes at 10pm from Monday to Saturday and at 4pm on Sunday.
First Make Sure You Have the Pencarn Way Store
Newport has several Asda-branded locations. These include ASDA Newport Pillgwenlly on Lower Dock Street, ASDA Living Newport at Newport Retail Park and several Express petrol stores.
The store covered by this page is the branch whose official name is simply ASDA Newport, at Pencarn Way – Coedkernew, postcode NP10 8XL.
Pillgwenlly is a separate grocery store and opens later than Pencarn Way from Tuesday to Saturday. ASDA Living is also a different format and should not be used when checking grocery-supermarket hours.
The Asda store locator can help separate Newport branches if a search gives you conflicting opening times.
When the Pencarn Way Superstore Opens
The morning pattern is the main feature of this store. Tuesday through Saturday begin at 6am, making the branch useful for a very early grocery shop.
Monday does not follow that early schedule. It starts at 8am instead. Sunday is later again at 10am.
Normal Weekly Supermarket Hours
- Monday: 8am to 10pm
- Tuesday: 6am to 10pm
- Wednesday: 6am to 10pm
- Thursday: 6am to 10pm
- Friday: 6am to 10pm
- Saturday: 6am to 10pm
- Sunday: 10am to 4pm
The store therefore provides a 16-hour supermarket day from Tuesday to Saturday without moving into midnight or 24-hour trading.
The Pharmacy Is the Main Staffed Service to Time Carefully
ASDA Newport has an in-store pharmacy. It normally opens from 9am to 8pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
The pharmacy also has scheduled closures from 12.30pm to 1pm and from 4.30pm to 5pm Monday to Saturday.
This means an open supermarket does not always mean an available pharmacy counter. On Tuesday, for example, the supermarket has already been open for three hours when the pharmacy begins at 9am.
The afternoon breaks are another reason to check the pharmacy itself rather than relying only on the supermarket’s broad 6am to 10pm timetable.
George Collection Fits the Main Evening Closing Time
George Click & Collect is currently listed from 8am to 10pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
Tuesday to Saturday therefore have a two-hour period in the morning when the supermarket is open before the listed George collection service begins.
A 6am Supermarket Opening Does Not Mean Every Counter Is Ready at 6am
The early opening is useful for straightforward grocery shopping, but staffed or specialist areas can follow their own schedules.
If the purpose of your journey is more specific than buying groceries, use the timetable for that service rather than treating 6am as a universal opening time for everything inside the building.
The Store Has a Broad Range of Accessibility Facilities
The Pencarn Way branch lists facilities including a car park, cash machine, wheelchairs, mobility scooters, hearing loops and disabled facilities.
Baby changing and other practical facilities are also available, making this a different proposition from smaller Asda-branded petrol or convenience locations around Newport.
Sunday Makes the Branch Differences Easier
The Pencarn Way supermarket normally opens from 10am to 4pm on Sunday. Newport Pillgwenlly also currently uses a 10am to 4pm supermarket timetable on Sunday.
That does not make the two branches interchangeable during the rest of the week. Pencarn Way opens at 6am from Tuesday to Saturday, while Pillgwenlly normally begins at 7am.
The Quieter Hour Comes in Mid-Afternoon
ASDA Newport currently provides a quieter hour from 2pm to 3pm Monday to Thursday. During that period the supermarket remains open while Asda reduces background noise and tannoy announcements.
Holiday Opening Should Be Checked by Branch, Not Town
Newport’s multiple Asda locations make holiday checking particularly important. A special timetable for Pillgwenlly or an Express store should not be assumed to apply to Pencarn Way.
Use the current NP10 8XL branch information when visiting on a bank holiday, Easter date, Christmas period or New Year.
