Ooooh, I LOVE this shop. You could easily wander in first thing Monday morning and not come out…read moretill Wednesday lunchtime. There are rails and rails of clothes from the 1920s onwards, a men's section on the third floor and oodles of linen, accessories, hats and suitcases. Even old, working sewing machines, buttons and fabulous Vogue patterns from the 1950s. Just when you think you've seen everything, there's another nook or cranny just waiting to be explored. The only heartbreaking thing is that in many cases, the sizes are just too small for most people today. A consequence of changing body shapes, I suppose. But if you are a size 16, then prepare for a long rummage to find something your size. I know, I've been there. But if you look like Christina Hendricks, there's every chance you could leave looking like an extra from Mad Men or like you've walked from the pages of The Best of Everything. Now, the only thing is to find Don Draper.....

The market centre is home to the largest covered market in Europe, by that I mean it has a roof..no…read moresides. Then again it is a real find as markets are rapidly vanishing all over the country. So you can browse and bargain in comfort. There are over 300 stalls here, selling everything from fresh fruit and veg, textiles, fish, cheese and vast collections of 'stuff', so you are sure to find something you like. The market has a 700 year old tradition for fine quality, and I would recommend the Red Leicester cheeses, the Melton Mowbray pies (I am told are wonderful) and all the fruit and veg seems fresh and is sold off cheaply at the end of the day. For football fans go to Gary Linekers Dad. Not the name of the stall, but Gary Linekers family have run a fruit and vegetable stall here for a fair few years. Aptly called 'Linekers Fruit and Veg stall', come here to buy fresh products and also to pay your respects to Gary's daddy. A few bric a brac stalls have now crept in..you may find that wonderful find but I doubt it. Some wonderful fabric stalls selling really well priced furnishing and clothing fabrics..often as cheap as wholesale. With over 300 stalls, everyday the market offers a variety of fresh produce and bargains.

John Lewis & Partners in Leicester is one of the two anchor stores in Highcross, it has access to…read morethe mall via the upper level and it is also across the way via street level, it is in a fantastic modern building and the store does look good from the outside. It is probably one of the best department stores in the city of Leicester, over four floors with toilets on three of them, there is also a cafe on the upper floor as well as a small yet decent technology section. I do feel the store could have been staffed a little more throughout the store to maintain the good levels of customer service one would expect to find from a John Lewis Partnership location. There are slightly more services at the Birmingham location which isn't too far away on the train but for a small city, it isn't bad at all, and I do feel this store structure and presence makes the Highcross mall better as a whole. 4*

This place stocks materials for loads of other crafts as well, if you like making cards or soft toys or your own clothes you will find something useful! It's a really fun place to browse if you like little bits and bobs for making things and would be a great place to take kids and get them interested in creative activities. If you don't do any crafty stuff you could still go in and talk to the staff, they're always ready with very helpful tips and advice.
