Not a shoe shop that would please Carrie Bradshaw (you won't find high heels let alone Manolo…read moreBlahniks here) however Rowberry's really is one of Swansea's premium shoe stores!

Very cute kids clothing, but the women's stuff is too pastel for my tastes.read more

The Quadrant Shopping Centre is great as it is indoors and with our lovely welsh weather it is nice…read moreto be in from the wet and cold. There are loads and loads of shops in the Quadrant like HMV, Game , W H smiths , Clinton cards and Debenhams. It can get pretty packed out with shoppers at peak times and especially with the run up to christmas. At christmas there is usually a lovely christmas tree with lots of decorations which make it look really nice. The shopping centre always looks clean and tidy and you will always find a cleaner pottering around.

The Quadrant is like many indoor shopping centres across the UK. It mostly houses chain stores like…read moreHMV, Clarks, WHSmiths, Faith and so on and so forth. Shops you find in every town in Britain. The Quadrant itself is quite pleasant though, it has a predominently glass roof which allows it to be very bright and airy inside. There's a gallery cafe which looks out on to the main concourse of the shopping centre which is great for people watching. The bus station also comes out of one end, so finding it is very easy, and also you won't have far to carry bags to get a bus. Or even to get to your car if you choose to park in the NCP which also adjoins the Quadrant. You can also get to Swansea Market via an entrance in the Quadrant. The largest store by far is Debehams, which is a large department store and takes up almost an entire wing of its own. ANECDOTE: I was sick on the doors of Debehams one Christmas as I was shopping for presents and very rapidly came down with a virus. There are public toilets (free) upstairs which are clean and well maintained. The buidling is decorated according to the seasons, and a large Christmas tree is the focus during the winter.

I couldn't have been happier with Rowberry's. This was only the second place I'd been to look for a…read morewedding dress, I wasn't actually expecting to find anything, just maybe get an idea of what I wanted. Me and my mum picked out a few dresses and the sales assistant chose a few based on my preferences and I found the perfect dress. The assistant was very helpful in getting shoes and accessories to help me achieve my vision. The seamstress made all the changes we needed and I felt perfect on my wedding day.

Went to Rowberry's in Port Tennant for my first attempt at buying a wedding dress and it nearly put…read moreme off buying one at all! I don't want a strapless dress and managed to find about two that were in this category, tried them on but decided they weren't for me. While my mother and I then tried to leave the sales lady got quite stroppy and told me I needed to change my ideas or that I would have to sew a jacket onto a dress because nowhere would have what I wanted. Needless to say this is not the case. Also while we were standing there being castigated, the ceiling started dripping on us!
