I recently came back to Milton Keynes after living abroad. The centre has changed for the better…read more It's remodeled in parts but has kept its old look and feel. I want to praise the centre for its amazing mother and baby facilities. It's so clean. I love the breastfeeding rooms with the privacy curtains. I love the fact I can breastfeed my baby and my son can use to the touchscreen game while he waits for me. This is such a help for shopping with two children five and under...thank you!

The MK Centre has a shop for everyone. From clothing to restaurants, books to games, adult toys to…read morejewellers. You should dedicate your day to shopping, as there are so many to visit. I've noticed the premises is always kept clean and there's rarely any rowdy or offensive behaviour. The market has some bargains, you can find the odd great summer dress for £5. It's open every day except Mondays and Wednesdays. It gets crowded on weekends, but that's to be expected in any City shopping centre. You get the odd bird flying around, too. Also, I'm not sure what the fountain is now, there used to be a gorgeous fountain near Nandos and it's been covered over.

Fairly good size mall, seems upscale-ish. Atmosphere - 3 stories Fairly new mall, indoor/outdoor spaces. 20 restaurants/bars, from casual to fine dining. Main restaurant attractions would be the ones on the rooftop terrace. Cinema, 24 hour gym, etc. Events are held here too - see website.

As you would expect, its all clean, well maintained but unless you are used to it, it was a bit confusing, signs weren't brilliant in large crowds.

I am not a make up buyer. I wear it only rarely myself, and haven't the faintest clue about how all…read morethe shading and colouring and stuff works. But Mum wanted make-up for her birthday - a very SPECIFIC make-up - and the younger sister does not drive, so I was sent off to House of Fraser. Entering, it looked very formidable. Lots and lots of stands, all selling different brands. I wandered, feeling rather intimidated, until I finally plucked up the courage to ask someone wear almost makeup was. They weren't sure, and a quick consult took place before she directed me towards the Clinique stall. The lady at the Clinique stall was nothing less than wonderful with my inept flailings. Different products were explained, and when all I could remember about shades was that a 3 and an 8 might have been involved, she patiently did a Well, is your mum's skin darker than yours? Darker than mine? until we had the right stuff. Thank you, Clinique lady, for being patient when you likely wanted to strangle me. I ended up with three make up items for £44. That would have been a price to whimper at, except they were doing an offer which meant I also got a huge bag of samples (really, HUGE) and some body lotion and hand stuff. That is, apparently, why the younger sister ordered me to go - they do do good free gifts. I can't say I'd go again for ME, because it looked far too girly a shop, but for gifts certainly, and the customer service in there was absolutely great.

It is technically outside but there is a cover over it and it is very warm once you get inside - but it can be a shock from the centre:MK. There are a number of cafes here also and a couple of places to eat all reasonably priced. It is a nice addition and if you are in the centre:MK is it worth walking that bit extra around here.

From bed linin to plates, from shampoo to hankies, from alarm clocks to pen knives.... it really does have everything.

The goods are cheaper than most other department stores and so for that reason alone are worth a browse!

Again, the staff are very helpful and clearly a lot of effort has been put into the quality of staff. Beatties is in Friars Square shopping centre and is close to a large car park which helps.

It is a small to medium sized store but will order anything in.
