In my opinion it's not very well laid out, hard to find what you're looking for and with the, much nicer, Waterstones only five minutes walk away I'll go there if I'm looking for a book or to the nearby Clintons if I'm after a birthday card. But the main problem with this branch of Smiths is that it's relatively small size and cluttered layout means it gets very crowded - the aisles are narrow and you're constantly having to jiggle past people and apologise for bumping into them.

They sell a few DVD's/CD's, a few books, cards, wrapping paper, some stationery, magazines, sweets. They are the type of shop that sell a bit of everything, while specialising in nothing. I find this branch of W H Smith very cramped, particularly the magazine aisles. The queues tend to be long, and there isn't much space in the shop for people to queue so they end up queuing down aisles which makes navigating through the store even more difficult. I find it disappointing that they recently stopped their reward system, though I suspect that this may be linked to the current economic crisis that has crushed many high street stores in the UK.
