He was lucky I was in a good mood and did not want to start confrontation for his ugly behaviour in front of my child... he is an extremely bigoted person as he made me very uncomfortable with his rude antics...people like him made this world really unpleasant place for black and ethnic minority people...

I love this place…read more It's massive, the biggest B&M I've ever seen. There is even a huge garden centre at the back and parking so you can transport all your wares. I really like B&M though the products to tend to be a little inconsistent. They always have a large range of non perishable food and the things they do have are around half the price of the supermarket alternatives and in many cases cheaper than the pound shops round the corner. The things that impressed me on this visit was the sheer range of household/kitchen implements for big names like Tefal or Kenwood at very low prices. I would dare say that the range is even better than you'll find in IKEA. This particular store had larger items like TVs, heaters and even Silentnight beds. They also seemed to have a huge amount of halloween things this time, way better than anywhere else Id seen. I ddn't get to see the gardening area properly but from the outside it also looked huge. If you want to follow the deals I'd recommend looking here http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/bmstores.co.uk Generally this this place is a bit of a revalation and even better its close to where I work! Good times!

Picked up a toilet seat whilst i was there. Went to fit the toilet seat today and there are pieces missing, and one of the bolts does not fit. Clearly a faulty return that had just been put back on the shelf. No doubt when I return they will be apologetic - but its just not good enough. Their lack of knowledge, incompetency etc. costs their customer wasted time, and money. Shop there if you want this kind of service

Went back later the same day because 1 of the gold fish seem to be unhappy so I thought may i ought to add some toys/decoration but the same person told me their just getting used to their new environment. He could have easily just sell me some decoration but he didn't which I appreciate and I will go back this week to get two more goldfish :)

There is a lot to choose from at Growing Concerns, including a decent herb collection and plenty of wall growing options for most of the locals who I am sure don't have acres of garden space. Let down a little by the staff who seemed a little like the hibernating plants and devoid of much excitement or indeed information. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as I intend to head back there for more supplies over the coming months. Its got a cute little set-up right on the edge of Victoria Park and has an extra gate onto the canal so if you're strolling you might pop by.

The selections they had were plentiful and the staff was helpful and knowledgeable. Finally, weeks after the rain, we decided to return here and pick plants. We bought a smorgasbord of trailing flowers, herb plants and tomatoes. Its great! They even accomated us to do out planting there since we have no place to plant at home. They even provided us with tools to do the planting. As for their location, it is conveniently located just around the corner from Victoria Park and next to Regents Canal. Overall, we are happy to have found Growing Concerns.

The prices are quite reasonable for the great quality they have. The roses are as red as blood and are so touching. I also like the fact that you can have your flowers delivered to your door which means they are even more fresh as they are brought there straight away rather than you; maybe branching off somewhere.

I got the salad box with salt and pepper tofu Sunday afternoon and had it for lunch today, Monday.

I stopped by for coffee and it was fabulous, made even better by the fact they accept card for a payment is low as £2. I also love how any of the plants you see in the shop, you are able to buy. I really can't recommend this place enough.. I felt instantly calm and soothed as soon as I stepped in. It's simply the perfect place to spend a lazy Sunday.
