    I actually liked this place because of the plentiful number of small independents like the Canvas…read morePrinting Company, the London Camera Exchange shop, Sonner Toys, Quiz Clothing as well as the usual suspects like Primark, Next, Lush and H&M. They had nail bars, a Turkish cafe, a Boswell's cafe, an eat all ya like Chinese/Japanese/Thai place charging £20 fixed price for food. It's also where the Starbucks is located that charged me 5p for tap water - the 5p was allegedly for the plastic cup when they were coming down with ceramic cups. They've driven my gold membership business from Starbucks since. I'd guess mine is at least £1,000 spend annually. There's plenty of chargeable parking here and we found one common theme driving around England - is not a parking friendly country and especially not a disabled parking friendly country. Local authorities starved of funds from central government crooks now fleece their communities at every turn and charging for parking on roads is just another income source. This is despite the fact that drivers already repeatedly pay for roads over and over through road tax, by paying for extortionate road fuel taxes and in general taxes are robbed here too. In fact Portsmouth centre had a surprising number of independent nail bars; most of which were staffed by Asian folk.

    The Cascades is a meduim sized shopping arcade in Portsmouth town centre. It boasts shops such as…read morePrimark, Claire's Accessories, Thorntons, Carphone Warehouse, Hawkins Bazaar, Accessorize, Fabric Land, TK Maxx, M&S, Evans, Woolworths (at present!), H&M. As well as having a Starbucks and an O'Briens for snacks and refreshments. There has recently been a refubishment, which now means there is space upstairs for a 'Food Court'. This mainly hosts a Subway, amongst other small eateries. There is a car park to the rear of the Cascades, which meakes for perfect parking to reach it. Quite pricey for parking, but close to the shops!
