ASDA Peterlee is a useful branch to understand through its services rather than the supermarket doors alone. The Surtees Road Superstore normally opens from 6am to midnight Monday to Friday, shortens to 6am to 10pm on Saturday and trades from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
Inside the same site are a pharmacy, opticians, café and travel money bureau, while grocery collection and fuel have separate operating times. A late supermarket visit therefore does not automatically mean every service is still available.
For an Ordinary Grocery Shop
The supermarket itself follows this normal weekly timetable:
- Monday: 6am to midnight
- Tuesday: 6am to midnight
- Wednesday: 6am to midnight
- Thursday: 6am to midnight
- Friday: 6am to midnight
- Saturday: 6am to 10pm
- Sunday: 10am to 4pm
Monday to Friday are therefore very long shopping days, each giving an 18-hour supermarket window. The branch is not a 24-hour supermarket because it still closes overnight after midnight.
For Grocery Click and Collect
Peterlee has a drive-to grocery collection point. It normally operates from 6am to 8pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
This means collection ends four hours before the supermarket on a weekday. A 10pm grocery shop may still be possible, but an online order cannot simply be assumed to be collectible because the main store is open.
The time confirmed with the order is the one to follow. The Asda click and collect service is based on booked slots rather than every hour the supermarket trades.
For the Pharmacy
The pharmacy normally runs from 9am to 9pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
That creates a large difference from the supermarket. On a normal Tuesday, the grocery store has already been open for three hours when the pharmacy begins, and it remains open for another three hours after pharmacy closing.
For Asda Opticians
The opticians uses a more varied pattern. Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday normally run from 9am to 6.30pm. Tuesday and Thursday extend to 7.30pm, while Sunday follows a 10am to 4pm schedule.
This makes Tuesday and Thursday the later optical days even though the supermarket itself uses the same midnight closing time across the working week.
For the Café
The café normally opens from 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
A Friday evening shopper can therefore have seven more hours of supermarket access after the café has closed. The café should be treated as a daytime service rather than something that follows the long supermarket day.
For Travel Money
The travel money bureau normally operates from 9am to 7pm Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm on Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
If currency is the reason for your trip, the bureau’s timetable matters much more than the supermarket’s midnight closing.
Fuel Starts Earlier Than the Supermarket on Some Days
The petrol filling station normally opens from 5am to 10pm Monday to Friday and from 7am to 10pm at the weekend.
That means fuel can be available before the supermarket on weekday mornings. In the evening, however, the supermarket remains open later from Monday to Friday.
George Collection and Scan & Go
George Click & Collect and Scan & Go handsets are normally listed from 8am to 10pm Monday to Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
This creates another service layer within the branch. A 6am supermarket opening does not mean George collection or handset Scan & Go is already available.
Where Is ASDA Peterlee?
The Superstore is on Surtees Road, Peterlee SR8 1AR. Asda currently lists one main Peterlee supermarket, reducing the local branch confusion found in larger towns.
Nearby Seaham and Hartlepool have their own Asda locations with different timetables, so the Asda store locator is useful if a wider regional search produces different hours.
Sunday Is When Most Services Line Up
The supermarket normally opens from 10am to 4pm on Sunday. Pharmacy, opticians, café and travel money currently fit within the same six-hour window.
Fuel remains available later, while grocery collection also follows the supermarket’s 10am to 4pm period.
Quieter Hour and Holiday Changes
Peterlee currently provides a quieter hour from 2pm to 3pm Monday to Thursday. The store remains open while background noise and tannoy announcements are reduced.
Bank holidays and seasonal dates can replace the normal weekly timetable. Check current branch information around Easter, Christmas, New Year and other public holidays, particularly if you intend to use the 6am opening or midnight closing.
