Ok first things first, I am not Morecambe's biggest fan. it's been under funded for years and it shows. This resort is tatty around the edges. And so is its shopping centre. But it's horses for courses I suppose. In a town like Morecambe the range of shops is what you would expect - Greggs, Mark One, Tesco, Boots, Iceland, Superdrug, Timpsons to name a few. This isn't somewhere you would go for a quality shopping experience. but it seems to serve the community quite well and is always bustling. There are cheapy card shops, cheap shoe shops, cheap clothes shops. And by cheap I mean market stall quality. But if you're looking for basic shopping and you're in the area then it serves its purpose. However I would always recommend jumping on a bus and shopping in Lancaster, purely because the choice and the quality is that much greater. read more

I used to love visiting the Arndale Centre when I was little as it was exciting, but 20 years on and it still looks the same and slightly dated. This is Morecambe's only shopping Centre, but for fresh fruit and veg I tend to prefer Yorkshire Street better. The Tescos has been revamped though and it is a great little shop for all the neccessities. Shops have came and went over the years, but they now include a Greggs, New look, Mark One, Iceland and a Claire's accessories. The selection of shops could be better but for Morecambe it is a good little place to shop. There is a pay and display car park very close by and the Library is just behind it. The centre is always very clean and there are benches down the middle to have a rest. read more
