I'm pleased to offer a much needed review for this store, as it sadly has gone without one for a length of time which would be exactly 7 months on Tuesday, considering this is a city center location and one of the busiest shops on Queen Street and in St David's, I'm surprised to see this. My local branch of Primark in Manchester has in a way put me off the brand alltogether, being such a big store filled with huge queues and just smelling and feeling cheap, and sweaty, but this store feels nicer than that, and is still a decent size and still follows a typical layout which one would expect from a Primark, a large clothing company based in Ireland. They did stock a decent range of stuff here especiallmY y in the mens department on the -1 Floor, and there are multiple other floors as well, as far as I'm aware there are 4 floors, with kids clothing on the top and the ground floor having an enterence onto Queens Street and also into the St David's mall. The staff also seemed quite friendly, at the till and also in the store, trying to get the lifts moving as quick as possible. The signal throughout the floor can be a little poor, but for a large store with a basement, this has to be expected especially with my poor signal from O2. My server also didn't mind me paying with lose change, and it did seem quiet enough, as in short queues to do that and even made jokes about it. Overall, this is a decent branch of Primark, a typical Primark in a way and deserves a solid three stars. read more

See all

I too love Primark but will now only ever go in this store during the week because its just far to stressful on a weekend, or in the school holidays. There is never enough space to have a good look at what's on offer unless your willing to go to war with a handful of other determined shoppers and then when you find something you have to wait ages to try it on and even longer to buy it. Yes this store is huge, and full of all the usual bargains. It has an especially large section of accessories and sun glasses at the moment. Is it worth the stress? Not always. Primark please, please open another store in the city centre to take the pressure off this poor place! read more

Primark - Women's Clothing Near Me - Cardiff, CRF

I love primark, always have such amazing things for such cheap prices. This store is huge, is nice & clean and is very easily accessed. Only issue with this particular store is the staff. Were quite rude to me when i asked to be pointed towards a particular section. The lady i asked was particularly passive aggressive towards me and made me feel very uncomfortable. I suffer with anxiety regardless so that situation set me off a little. I'd go back for the fact i like primark as a whole, just would not count on the staff to be kind and respectful. read more

I checked out the Primark in Newport not long before my trip here and while I was disappointed, my friends were saying how Cardiff's Primark was so much better. I made a mental note and on my way home, I passed by this shop and thought - "Hey, why not?" I needed a new warm winter coat anyway and I'm far too frugal to spend £70+ on one so I decided that with Primark's reputation of being cheap cheap cheap I decided to give it a browse. ~ Atmosphere: No joke, this place is HUGE. Which basically means that the variety is just as good. Anna T is definitely right though - the one downside is that depending on when you come, it may be really hectic. ~ Customer Service: I'm not a huge fan of Primark's customer service normally. Unlike some other shops, I don't really think that these employees are the people to go to for say, fashion advice. But they have plenty of check-out counters to handle the large amount of customers so despite the hectic atmosphere, queuing up doesn't take too long thankfully. ~ Clothing: They had a massive coat sale on and I imagined to snag a really elegant WARM coat for £10! Seriously - £10!!! I've never experienced such an amazing deal before. For that price, I definitely expected it to be a flimsy coat that isn't warm at all. Wore it out to frosty freezing weather outside and was plenty comfortable. --- 4 stars for such an amazing deal. You bet I'm going to be making regular visits to Primark now to see if I can find something else that cheap and lovely. read more

I can just compare this primark with the ones in my city over and over again... The whole experience is the same, yet visiting this store and the store in my city is quite diffrent. But why is that? I have been in the Queens Street Primark several times shopping for diffrent things. On any day or any time, the store was just a gigantic mob of people. Fighting for their clothes. It was like on a battle field. Women speeding through the store checking out clothes and throwing them everywhere when they didn't like it. Just walking around was a pain, because you only had a very small gap between all the people... If there was one. This store is definitly not for men! Don't let your girlfriend take you there! It's a trap!!! Send her there, and go eat burger in the meantime. Otherwise your day or even worse your week is destroyed! read more

My favourite thing about this Primark shop is the sign up in the window explaining their continued strivances towards betting the conditions of their overseas workers. Most people who shop here, however, couldn't give two hoots abut that kind of moral ambiguity. But it makes me feel a little bit better. If I was after a nice new outfit, I would never go to Primark as my first port of call. But if it's basics I'm after; a simple t-shirt, underwear or pyjamas, then this shop has my vote. Although it can be busy, heavily so, that's not the main problem I have with this store (and most other branches). It's the fact that there is so little respect for the store from customers, that they somehow think it's acceptable to fling clothes around willy-nilly. Neat piles become seething cesspits in a matter of moments. This either says something about the customers in Primark, or Primark itself. Most likely both. read more

When it comes to Primark I'm afraid I really can't agree with Laura.I find the place to be absolutely hellish, and my experiences at this store have always been ones of misery. For starters there are always tons of clothes all over the floor (do you really want to wear something that has been trodden all over?). Secondly this place is massive, you could be looking for ages before you found something you liked. But what annoys me about this Primark the most is that on the weekend and school holidays it's always packed, the queues are inevitably long, and despite it's large size I often find myself feeling rather claustrophobic. Sure the clothes are cheap, and there is a big selection of them available, however personally I wouldn't mind spending a few extra pounds if it means I never have to enter this store again. read more

So apparently Bristol has the UK's largest Primark. Whether this is cause for joy or dismay probably depends on who you ask. The place is rammed during every minute of every opening hour, yet non-Primark shoppers seem generally vehemently opposed to this sartorial behemoth. On the one hand, it's great to be able to buy basics this cheap (and pick up the odd excellent designer rip-off). Primark makes fashion accessible. On the other, the "wear it, bin it" binge-buying habits it encourages are unethical, unsustainable and just plain wasteful. Its homogenised stock is turning the nation into an army of identikit fashion victims trussing themselves up in the trends of the moment without heed to what suits or flatters. Ok diatribe over, everyone pays Primark a visit or two. This particular branch is exceptionally well-stocked and great for picking up basics and work clothes you're reluctant to shell out good money for. So by all means pay a visit, just make sure it's not on a Saturday afternoon (hell as a consumer paradise) and that you save some pennies to buy an interesting, original piece you'll wear forever somewhere else. read more

Since its move from the backstreets of the Hayes this store has become an overly busy chav heaven! There is a wide variety of items on sale but the quality isn't good and they aren't big on ethics either! The only positive really is the price, you can get a jumper for as little as a pound sometimes, but the whole store just reminds me of how throwaway our society has become and I generally try to avoid the place at all costs. read more

This store is huge and has a great selection of clothes in all categories. It can be untidy with shoppers who've rummaged through the piles of clothes on display but thats only to be expected. Staff are helpful and even though its always busy and queues are long - it never takes too long to get through the checkout! Bargains galore but dont expect amazing quality! Cheap and cheerful. read more

B4 you buy that expensive clothing item check out primark, they have almost identical stock at a fraction of the price, many times ive been to primark and seen almost identicle to what I have purchased at a much higher price elsewhere, you have nothing to loose. read more

Primark in Cardiff is a brilliant place to shop because the clothes are cheap but gorgeous!!They stock everything from tee shirts to handbags,all at good prices. The only drawback is its a very busy store with really long queues,so be prepared to wait. read more

I asked people the other day where their favourite place in Cardiff is and 4 out of 10 said; Primark! Now, I'm not overly fussed on huge chain stores like this, always paranoid I'd be wearing the same thing as the next five people. But come on Primark is so so cheap you'd be a fool not to have a wander around this huge version of the store. Beware, it is certainly not for the faint hearted, there's a lot of buggies with a further attached twelve toddlers to each parent. There's also a lot of hooded creatures skulking around. A little intimidating I find. Also, don't expect to go in, find what your looking for and leave. That would be a miracle. You'll end up finding about twenty things in the same amount of seconds with the attitude of; 'it's so cheap it would be rude not to!' So, when you eventually get to the till or should I say queue for the till you end up with around three hundreds items that you don't really need and will probably never wear. But hey, its a bargain right? All the staff look like they want to top themselves, I've never come across such a miserable, one-toned, slumped bunch in all my years of trawling for bargains. But its so busy and so warm you cant really blame the poor blighter's for wearing unapproachable frowns. Also; one more word of warning the lovely brown bags Primark give you with your purchases are quite partial to allowing the odd hanger poke through. I endured one particular incident where my brand new smalls or not to smalls just to add to the massive blush that appeared on my face were scattered quite nicely up Queen Street. A bit like a smutty Hansel and Grettal trail!! read more

Everyone is a fan of Primark really - although going to different stores can be pretty hit or miss. When Primark stores are small, they tend to only have the worst of the stock. It is excellent, then, that this shop is so big. It is four floors - the below ground level is for men (this normally has the smallest queues so if you're thinking that the queue for women looks too long, just go downstairs - you'll get some evil looks from the men, but you cares really). The ground and first floor are women entirely and the very top floor is a mix of shoes and children. (Please note that this might change because this store is in the middle of renovations right now.) The service is never particularly great but you go for the cheap cheap cheap prices, don't you? And because it's so huge you will almost definitely find something you like, read more

I love Primark! Unbelievably cheap, you can pick up some great bargains. Fashionable clothes & shoes. Frequently changed always up to date with new styles. Most sizes available at all times. read more

Primark is cheap and chearful with a variety of designs that are always on trend. They also sell shoes, underwear, accessories, nightwear and swimwear. read more

Primark is located on queen street and is spread over 4 floors. Its got alot of stock which is frequently changed. Can get abit messy in there but you can grab some real bargains! read more

My girlfriend always drags me around here for at least an hour as this store is so big. Its always messy with clothes everywhere! Everything is very cheap and you could probably buy the shop for under £100. I have however bought a few things from here which I really like. read more

Primark is very cheap, keeps up with the latest fashion. Quality of clothes is great although it can get very choatic and messy because everyone throws things around to get what their looking for. read more

good place for a bargain but because of this it gets so busy and spins me right out! Mums with prams barging their way through without a care made scrabbles at the tables of clothes. Not for me! I like some tranquility when im shoppin, i dont do much of it, and when i do, i like to shop have a quick look and leave. Not have my miond blown and feel all mental in my head by all the crazy crazy shoppers, and crazy escalators that always seem to be going in the wrong direction! If you like a few bargains have a peek, but the few good item that are there ar'nt worth the mind frazzle! read more

Primark Cardiff is amazing! Its huge and spread over 4 floors! It has everything you could ever want from basics to the latest fashion trends at very low prices! Id definately recommend Primark! read more

Depsite being very cheap, the quality of the clothes often lacks anything to sing about. That being said, it is ideal if you need an outfit quick. The shop (like the fashion industry as a whole) is more female orientated, but there is a men section, on the bottom floor with the home section too. The shop is often messy due to the way people search the rails/displays. The staff don't have time to be friendly, as the ques are often very long. read more

This Primark is huge it is split into 4 floors each floor having something different on it i.e cildrens clothes, ladies wear etc.. This is actually the biggest Primark that I have been to and they have so many bargain clothes to choose from at cheap prices. I especially like the children's clothes there as alot of them you don't see at the smaller stores. When I went there I didn't actually find it that messy compared to some that I have been to. They also have a lot of footwear for sale at the moment it is mostly the ugg boot style boots. The only negative thing I can say is that there is always long queues to buy stuff. read more

I love this place - you can spend £20 and come away with an entire outfit even down to the shoes! This new primark which has three floors of awesome cheapness is a great improvement on the last one. I have friends who will travel here from Bristol as they don't have a Primark yet. On the weekends it is manic - the queues are a mile long and its jam packed full of people, i would suggest going in the week instead. read more

Clothing is always very cheap here, even if it is the latest fashion. Always busy when ive been there. Always needing to squeeze past people, the queues on the tills are also massive, needing to queue for about 10 minutes sometimes. The store is nicely laid out, but clothing is often found on the floor and dirty because people pick something up then deciding they dont want it either dump it on the wrong display or drop on the floor. read more

This shop sells a huge variety of clothes, from cheap joggers and t-shirts, to pretty dresses and skirts. There's also loads of nice shoes and jewellery available too, not to mention their huge selection of underwear! Everything is very reasonably priced. However, it is usually busy and queues are often longbut I would say it's worth it. Also, this Primark store is relatively tidy compared to others I have visited in Birmingham and Swansea. Staff do a good job of cleaning up after manic shoppers. :) read more

Great for basic supplies. Obviously cheaply made but what do you expect at the amazing prices. Surprised at some gorgeous designs. You have to spend some time here to make the most of a bargain shopping spree. read more

I don't think you can really fault Primark when it comes to cheap clothes. There are some negatives but these are outweighed by the benefits. I buy a lot of clothes from primark. I buy my main pieces such as a nice pair of jeans at a more expensive shop but for everyday wear to go with your nice pieces, Primark is the place to come. I buy a lot of jumpers, cardigans and little vest tops there. These are styled on clothes from other shops and you can usually pick up a bargain that looks very much like something you'd find in topshop for 3 times the price. Brilliant! There seems to be a misconception that clothes are badly made but I certainly haven't found this. The clothes are good quality and if they don't last as long as clothes from other shops, they are so much cheaper, it doesn't matter. Shoes and jewellery can also be good buys here although I don't rate the homewear, it seems a little cheap looking. Primarks downfalls are it is so unbelievabley busy! I get very stressed in there at peak time and lothes are piled everywhere, it's like a jumble sale. If you go at a quite time though it's fantastic. Primark tends to stay open half an hour later than most shops- a perfect time to visit! read more

With a huge range of cheap yet gorgeous clothes, Primark is a definite stop for shopping. If you just need a plain vest top or t-shirt, then spend your money wisely and get one from here. Also, this shop is bursting with beautiful clothes that look near to designer! Their shoe and bag ranges are huge, and they have plenty of good quality clothes for the office. My only criticism is that it's always SO FULL! And it's always full of prams. read more

I love this shop as its probably the only place in which you can buy 10 tops & still have change from a £20 note. Great value, good quality clothing at very low prices. A busy store & probably one of the citys most popular. read more

A good value low price clothing store for man & women with friendly staff

seriously, it may be cheap but if it doesn't break before hand it will shrink in the wash. spend a little more get a hell of a lot better. plus if your wearing primarni everyone knows it already so they know ur cheap read more

I find that the bedding is excellent quality. I always purchase mine from Primark. They always have what I need. Though it is a pity that the Homewares/Textiles dept is rapidly shrinking in the Cardiff store. It won't be long before it disappears completely which would be a shame. read more

helpful staff. lovely shoes and accessories. clothes could be in bigger sizes. good quality for prices. can get messy and untidy and very busy read more
