Don't get me wrong, i quite like the chantry centre, as although it does have its failings, at the same time it does not try to be a destination but merely a place to shop which is what it is designed for! There isn't a cafe every other store, the only places to get a drink or food are grouped together away from the other stores.

With an almost tacky appearence it is to easy to want to stroll on past, but taking look inside you can be pleasently suprised by the nice quality costume jewellery and accessories they sell. Nicer quality than that you find in most high street chains, and still at a reasonable price, it is easy to get carried away! They do some cool jewellery stands in the form of a minature dressmakers doll! The staff are quite laid back but welcoming and polite whether you buy or just browse.
