We got to experience it during the Christmas holidays, which was nice for sight seeing. It opens at 9 am on weekdays, and the outside doors opened to the public about 5 minutes before. Many of the stores open soon after. The 3rd story consists of a variety of restaurants, all of which were closed that early in the day. Instead, quite a few coffee shops were open, including a lot of Costa's. The center of the mall consists of elevators and a set of escalators. Even at 9, there were quite a few people working and browsing.

West Quay is big, with over 80 stores and over 50 cafes, bars, and restaurants. There's even a movie theater and bowling alley. Best of all, it was conveniently located next to our hotel.

The department store always looks clean and tidy and the staff are friendly and attentive. As you will expect from a large department store of this calibre, prices tend to be on the more expensive side but this is reflective in the quality of the products on offer and the customer service you receive. The restaurant on the top floor is a nice touch and a great place to chill-lax after a busy day shopping!

Customer service was really nice, Elemis skin care section was nice, cosmetic had nice choice and SP was very helpful.

Over all our favorite store.

My husband and I shopped at this particular TK Maxx in Southampton one time. An employee was at the entrance, and she politely allowed me to enter despite my causing the alarm to go off. (I guess that the disposable razors that I had purchased previously elsewhere had set off the alarm?) I looked mostly at the women's clothing and handbags. The brands were more local and regional (e.g., Dune handbags) rather than American, but the moderate quality and reasonable prices were similar to what TJ Maxx stores have.

The location consists of multiple stories, with each section having a dedicated clearance section. All prices are clearly marked, and include taxes (which somewhat compensated for the prices being in pounds). My wife got a good deal for a blouse (5 quid), that she wore multiple times on our cruise. Going on a multi-day cruise with just carry-on luggage (allowing us to be nimble as we explore), means only light weight clothing that is easy to handwash/air dry. TK Maxx (just like its sibling Marshalls/TJMaxx in the States) is great place to pick up heavily discounted clothes that fit that bill. It's also fun to see what fashion and brands a foreign country is selling...in this case, it was similar to what we are able to find in the States (along with similar prices). It was a self checkout and we had no issues using our US bank issued card. Learning: TJK changed the name to TK Maxx to avoid confusion with a British retailed called T.J. Hughes.

Tesco Home was a flagship new market idea for Tesco with the store concentrating only on homewares and is a wonderful idea, and often very packed out. Parking is plentiful and as its free, everyone uses it. Free for 2 hours with parking attendants there all the time its quite good! Also frequented by the youths with they're show-off cars of an evening, so not the place to bring a learner driver!

West Quay is an indoor shopping mall. My husband and I shopped here one time…read more The mall contained several dozen stores and a few dozen restaurants. Some brands were local, and others were non-local. I am from the U.S., and some stores and restaurants here are also in the U.S. Therefore, I felt most interested in the non-US brands such as Marks & Spencer. This mall is also supposed to have ice skating, bowling, and movies, although I did not participate in those activities.

I have very fond memories of this mall because when I used to work on ships, this was where I would…read morecome to hang out when docked in Southampton. There was reasonably priced food, wifi, and I could get a little shopping in. This was 15 years ago. Glad to see 15 years later, this mall is still kicking, and they have really built up this area a lot more. They still have a nice mix of stores, although some of their kiosks are gone, like their Whittard's kiosk. The food court wasn't bad, although I did notice a couple places were empty. There is still wifi, although that's less of an issue now. And they still have the M&S, thankfully. If you're going on a cruise, and have some time to kill, I think this mall is a great stop, especially considering there are other things in the area too if you get bored with the mall. There is another mall in the area, but that one is a little more empty, whereas West Quay still seems to have a crowd.
