We ordered 3 carpets from Downtown Grantham…read more The first one was fitted a couple of months ago and is fine. The second one came a couple of weeks ago and after fitting we could tell that they had fitted a cheap underlay rather than the better quality more expensive one that we had been charged for, had to have the carpet taken up and the correct underlay fitted but the carpet isn't as well fitted now as the first one. The third carpet was due to be fitted tomorrow on the stairs. This evening Downtown called to cancel and reschedule for the end of next week. As we had removed the stair carpet today in preparation we now have 8 days with exposed gripper rods on the stairs. With 2 dogs and a child this is a real cause for concern. Very disappointed with Downtown service and needless to say the 3rd carpet will be the final one we ever purchase from Downtown, will be looking elsewhere for the remaining ones that we need.

Oldrids has been in Boston FOREVER. I can remember going to the cafe upstairs with my mum when I…read morewas little and having a ham roll and a glass of milk before spending my birthday money in the AMAZING toy department. Nowadays I'm not so much for the toys, more for the kitchen bit downstairs, which is excellent, and the perfume department. I went in a couple of weeks ago and had a look at some fancy shoes but the two women at the till there looked at me as though I was a bag lady and needed ejecting. I felt very, very uncomfortable. I think it was because I was wearing linen trousers and flip flops and my hair was a bit messy, but whatever it was, it was like that bit in Pretty Woman where the shoplady is mean to the prozzie. Anyway, Oldrids is a well stocked, well laid out department store, which on the whole is deserving of a visit if you're on a shopping trip and need some knickers or tights or makeup or perfume or a griddlepan, and don't mind paying a bit more for it, or if you just want a cup of coffee in a place where you can peek out over the main pedestrian bit and laugh at the chavs, but beware the grumpy staff is all I'll say. Just to clarify, I'm not a prostitute.

Great, spacious department store, with a lot of choice & a fantastic toy department…read more I haven't tried the restaurant, so can't comment on what has been written before! ;-) Very pricey for certain items, but well worth a visit (just make sure you check the price tag carefully before purchasing!)

Quite a large department store with loads of different departments to suit yourself and your home…read more The prices are quite high but the products are of good quality. There is a multi storey car park provided.

My monther in law likes this store so we normally buy chistmas presents for her from here…read more The store looks very fresh and inviting now due to a very major revamp. Now has a cafe upstairs, which is very spacious. They offer a free bra fitting service and the staff are only too happy to help. The clothes i find can be quite expensive, also some of the food items, but in their case you get what you pay for!!!!

The Marks & Spencers used to be the worst one I had ever seen - small and dinghy. However, it has…read morerecently been refurbished and they now have a cafe as well. Clothes tend to be a bit pricey but good quality - in the sales now they become a bargain. Food and wine is actually amazingly good. Admittedly it is not cheap but they often have offers on wine and the quality is definitely better than major supermarkets. I also like their fresh flowers although the choice in King's Lynn is not great. Staff are very friendly and helpful
