There are quite a lot of high streets shops in the tamed center but my review will be on New Look…read more On days where I feel like I need to have a little clothes shopping spree and I only have an hour spare I like to pop down to this New Look store because.... the store is open till 8pm, There are two floors, but I mainly venture to the first floor and visit the inspire range which is the wise range of larger sizes I've seen and shoes, there is normally a sale or some sort of promotion every time I visit, And there's a changing room on both floors. If you ever need them to hold a item for you they can reserve this for 24 hours, and I've never had to wait longer than 10 minutes in the queue at a busy time.

I had a good experience shopping in here. The staff were helpful and friendly and the environment…read morewas nice and calm. Definitely recommended

Quite unexpectedly, in an area dominated by large out-of-town style shops and car parks, Merton…read moreAbbey Mills is a craft and artisan food market, with cafes, a restaurants, pubs and a small theatre, all located in the historic buildings of the Liberty textile mill, alongside the River Wandle. The name reflects the location of Merton Priory, once one of the largest and wealthiest monastic foundations in England: Henry VI was crowned in the Church and Thomas a Becket was educated at the Priory. Following its almost complete destruction at the dissolution of the monasteries in 1538, only the Chapter House foundations survive, under Merantun Way. The area has been the location for textile mills since the 18th Century, with the river providing both pure water for the dyeing process, and power for the water mills used for printing and textile processing. William Morris had a factory here, but the Abbey Mills occupy the buildings of the former Liberty textile mills. They include a working water mill, one of only four mills left on the Wandle, and the only actually in working order. It now houses a pottery, but can visited to view the water wheel. Other businesses include a mineral and fossil shop, hairdressers, picture galleries and art/craft shops. At weekends there are more stalls selling crafts and artisan food stalls. The Office accommodation houses a range of creative and service companies. It is becoming quite a foodie stop, with two pubs, a bakers, artisan cakes, a delicatessen, two pubs, and several cafes and restaurants covering a range of cuisines. There isn't a lot of parking in the Mill complex, but it's only a short walk from Collier's Wood underground station, and Sainsbury's and the Tandem shopping centre have large car parks.

I've been to Merton Abbey Mills a few times now, and have always had a nice time. It is a pretty…read moreand somewhat bohemian retreat from South West London, a quiet oasis of calm and friendliness. There are a good selection of shops especially for gifts (great now in the run up to Christimas!) and as well as that there is a regular Farmers Market. I went there last Sunday and was a little late - by 1:30pm many of the stalls had clearly packed up and gone home. However I had an interesting discussion with a leather goods vendor and got to sample some cheeses and check out the pottery. Apparently you can sign up for pottery classes there. There are also a range of restaurants -- which I am rating separately in their own right. And in the evenings there are a range of live music and theatre going on, check out their website for their events calendar. One thing I would recommend doing, is to travel to Morden Hall Park and do the the Wandle riverside walk from there to Merton Abbey. Its scenic and about a mile and a half, passing by Deen City Farm on the way. A hit for the kids!

Dreadful shopping centre full of the usual high street stores…read more Something has happened to the attitude of the centre staff here and they are no longer the friendly bunch of old. As we left we saw the security harassing 2 NHS workers that were simply sitting on the bench outside. They were told they could not sit there as it was Shopping Centre property....???! Very nasty will not be visiting here again, not even to visit the cinema even though it is our nearest 'mall'.

Centre Court is a gorgeous little shopping centre in Wimbledon. It's literally right by the tube /…read moretrain station and the first thing you notice when exiting the station. This is a pretty bog standard shopping centre, there are a lot of shops but I've never been bowled-over by this place. There's the usual H&M, Marks and Spencer, Body Shop etc and a nice wee food court but unless you are local there is not point in visiting this shopping centre. Handy for Wimbledon locals, not worth it if you are just visiting, best go to the boutiques unique to Wimbledon just up the road instead.

Conveniently situated slap-bang in the middle of Wimbledon's High Street, and right next-door to…read morethe tube and train station, this is a spacious place to shop to your heart's content, stop for a coffee or light lunch or indulge in a pampering treat or two. There is indoor parking on two levels and cash machines also available, for added convenience. Shops include Debenhams (on both levels), Boots, Ann Summers, Accessorize, a mini M&S Food Store and a Tesco Express, plus a host of fashion outlets including Gap, H&M, La Senza and Oasis. There is also a food court on the upper floor and a terrace restaurant. Basically just about everything you could need, all under one roof!

They have New Look clothing store, Boots, M&S, so you could make this a one stop shopping deal. The mall is well laid out and very clean. Seems like the central place to meet in Croydon.

Now by now everyone has heard that Whitgift would soon be transformed into the new Westfield…read moreshopping mall! It is currently very hard to believe given that half the shops in this place now sit vacant and those that remain have a certain tacky vibe about it with a handful of bargain stores (don't get me wrong! You can find some real gems in these places) and because of how the lack of shops have driven many visitors away and the Westfield plans have been delayed in like forever, I hope that the new Westfield would bring back customers and visitors in droves. It's such a shame that the Westfield plans have been delayed as many businesses have moved out too soon in anticipation for it. Still, nothing beats walking down north end reminiscing about the good olden days because when Westfield finally arrives, gone would be the brown and beige floor tiles and the 90s feel that makes this Croydon shopping centre so unique. #LiveLifeLikeLDN

All feels somewhat temporary, but that said, that are gems to be found - you just need to look past the grim surroundings and ferret about; for example, for those more sylph-like than me, there was one "bit" that specialised in Nicole Farhi samples. The downside was, as many of them were "one-offs" or pre-production items, none of them had size labels on them. There are also a range of furniture, household, and toy sections, as well as clothing. Thinking of it as a quirkier ( and much better stocked - at least for the moment) TK Maxx. Happy hunting !
