Large shopping centre (or "center" in American) on multiple levels with several dozen shops. All the usuals apply, including Boots, HMV, TK Maxx, etc. Several eateries have establishments here - Burger King, BB's Coffee and Muffins, Starbucks, Subway. They are attached to Vue Cinemas. The place completely indoors so no worries about the weather, though it was a little toasty today on the upper levels. Plenty of parking is available, which can be a little expensive depending. 6 hours was £10 today, though they do have special nights where parking is free after 5pm. Modern, clean, bright and airy. All in all, a pleasant experience. read more

Castle Quarter - One of the mall entrances - Shopping Centers Near Me - Norwich, NFK

Chapelfield is the older of the two malls in Norwich, and it can feel a bit tired inside at times. Where Chapelfield is a light, bright and airy cathedral to retail therapy, Castle Mall can feel like something out of a John Romero movie. Day of the dead Maybe its something to do with being under the castle, occupying the space where the dungeons usually are Or maybe it's just because all the decent shops upped and left to the swanky new place down the road. Whatever the case, Castle Mall will has an important place in the history of retail in Norwich. Main because it houses the city's main Post Office. read more

There's an amazing time lapse video of the excavation of the site which formed The Mall. Pronounced mal rather that mawl which is a bit strange. It's felt a bit abandoned by business with the loss of the main reason to go there, virgin/zavvi out of the game. There's still and Argos and a central TK Maxx hiding on the lower levels. There's loads of entrances and a quite simple layout. Because there are quite a few duplicate shops in the city visiting the Mall is often a way to avoid the crowds or an easy alternative branch to explore. read more

A beautiful mall the compliments Chappelfield's offerings well. The Castle Mall in Norwich is home to some great stores which are all provided in a dry, well lit and comfortable environment. The food court is a great place to grab something to eat quickly and cheap - if thats between shopping or before visiting the castle. read more

Back in the 90s this place opened and it was clearly the new place to shop in Norwich. That did mean, however, that a lot of business was taken away from St. Stephen's Street and it almost seemed quite sad to see the area so quiet. Now, though, the tables have turned on the Castle Mall (we make it rhyme with pal not hall like the Americans!) and Chapelfield opened a few years ago. This brand new, ultra-modern looking shopping centre has taken customers back to the St. Stephen's area and it is the Mall's turn to start feeling a bit neglected. Although a few high street shops remain, there are more discount places and it's all just starting to look rather dated. read more

The Castle Mall, I remember as if it was yesterday going up there on the weekends and just hanging out as a Teen, and not much has changed! Alot of shops have stayed in their places for years and years! It's now in constant competiton with Chapelfeild and has become the underdog, The lower end of the market! But i feel that the castle mall still holds its own & seems to be getting along fine, alot of money seems to have been pumped into the mall to clean it up and sharpen its image which has worked! You can get hold of some real deals in there, The discount bookstore is one of my favourites, the majority of books in there are from just £2! And with christmas coming up you can get hold of Mall vouchers that are useable inevery store in the Mall,so you cant go to far wrong as there really is something for everybody. read more

I remember when the Castle Mall shopping centre was built in Norwich, it was a very exciting thing to happen back then. I also remember it took quite a while for the shops to get established. Now it is full of various clothes shops such as Bay Trading, H&M, Mothercare, new look and many more. It also hosts a great Argos and early learning centre as well as sports shops, sandwich shops, card shops, stationery and many more. It is great to be able to shop in a Mall especially when the weather outside is not too good. The Castle Mall used to be really busy, but because it was always a very spacious shopping centre it coped well. however, since Chapelfield opened Castle Mall is a little quieter and this makes it more of a please. There is also parking which includes Mother and baby and Disabled spaces. All in all this is a great shopping centre to wonder around and offers a brilliant atmosphere. read more

The Castle Mall is the original shopping mall in Norwich. It was build in the 1990's and I remember it was the place to go shopping when it first opened. Today it's still one of the best places to go shopping in Norwich although there has now been another shopping mall built in the city. The Mall hosts a wide range of shops including these - Mothercare, Boots, Superdrug, Argos, Birthdays, Virgin Megastore and many more. It also has a cinema called Vue which is based on the upper levels. There is also a few shops to stop by to have a quick snack or something to eat. Some of these shops have been here since it's opened such as Boots but there are continuously new and different shops opening all the time. There is plenty of parking here and being a parent like myself I find it handy to know there are wider spaces designed for families with children. They also have a parking level especially for disabled visitors too and this is based on shop level. They also have a nursery here too but personally I've never used it. read more

The Castle Mall has shops inside for all sorts of people. If you are a mother in need for some toddler toys, Early Learning Centre is right for you. If you are into fashion and clothes, New Look, H&M and Mad House. If you are into sports, Sports World is good for you too. The Castle Mall offers a wide range of shops and eating places. It was built about 15 years ago, the Castle Mall is in really good condition and incorporates 2 car parks and a multi-screen cinema. read more

i love the Mall - the car park is great value, it has almost everything you need, it is busy but not so much that you cant move. there are loads of new shops open and loads equally that remain. there are plenty of eateries to choose from - in the food court or dotted around. a wide range of shops and coffee/tea shops for a pit stop. not as birght as chapelfield, but it is older and underground predominantly so you would expect that. my favourite shopping centre in norwich, caters for everyone. read more

Not so popular since the opening of Chapelfields, but the Castle Mall is still a great place to go. I find the layout can be a bit confusing because it's on several levels. Unfortunately a lot of the popular shops have moved to or near to Chapelfields but the Castle Mall does have the new addition of Zavvi which is replacing the Virgin Megastore. read more

This I have to say is looking quite dated in comparison to the new chapelfield complex. However advertising is good, parking also good, central location. Have noticed lots of stores closing down prob not a good sign. Needs more toilets also on every level. Noticed some escalators not working there recently either. read more

i dont know why buit i still prefer castle mall to chaplefield, it just seems more welcoming. all my fav stores under one roof.
