 A great day's shopping! |
St Philips Causeway Bristol BS2 0SP United Kingdom +44 (0)870 444 0654 (Tourist Information Centre) |
The Avonmead Retail Park provides both shopping and entertainment on one large, pleasantly sprawling site. The Showcase Multiplex Cinema sits beside a spacious ten-pin bowling complex, and for dining out there's TGI Friday's American restaurant, McDonalds and a Deep Pan Pizza here. Shops include a couple of large electrical stores, both usually trying to outdo the other in price cuts - it's possible to find real bargains here — Boots, and Staples the office supplier. Fashion is provided by Outfit and Brantano Footwear. There is plenty of parking space, and the Retail Park is close to the large local Sainsbury's supermarket, making this a convenient place to shop no matter what you're after. Payment methods vary by shops. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Large store selling brand-name shoes |
Avonmead Retail Park St Philips Causeway Bristol BS2 0SP United Kingdom +44 117 972 8147 |
This large store actually manages to make shoe-shopping a pleasure! The range of high quality products plays a large part in this - Clarks, Ikon, Lotus, Hush Puppies and Kookai are all represented and there's a section for the broader foot as well. Of particular significance is the children's section. Trained staff are on hand to measure the child's feet carefully and are more than willing to both give advice and offer assistance (and the children love their little play area!). The shoes are sturdy, very good quality and long-lasting, even with the tough treatment children dish out. It also stocks accessories - bags, gilets, socks and other footwear. For variety, quality, and good value for money, this is certainly a good place to go. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Smart suits for that tailored look |
59 Queens Road Clifton Bristol BS4 5HS United Kingdom +44 117 909 9948 |
If you want to look like a well-bred Englishman, head here. They stock very traditional and well-tailored suits, plus a wide range of accessories such as jackets, trousers, shirts, and ties. You won't find any "trendy" innovations like nehru collars and specially-creased shirts here - everything has the unmistakable look of conventionality, albeit that of a very high-class. So, naturally the service is of the old-fashioned and friendly variety and the assistants will talk you through the brands stocked, such as Odermark-Magee, Van Heusen etc. If you want to look really posh, they have a made-to-measure service on suits - this normally takes around six weeks but for an extra fee you can get it done in two.
