The quality of goods has always been first class, and they are always easy to deal with. Brendan Is always more than accommodating when it comes to delivering the goods, in most cases delivering in the evening as it suited me better because of work. His store is an aladins cave and well worth a visit.

Downstairs, you can buy anything from sweets and toiletries to handbags, toasters and artificial flowers! Pop upstairs and you can browse through a good selection of furniture, lighting, pictures and more! Only downside is if you have young children with you, there is no public lift, so you either have to ask someone to mind the buggy and carry your youngster upstairs or give upstairs a miss. Their seasonal department towards the rear of the groundfloor changes from gardening in the spring/summer to halloween/christmas in autumn/winter. Always loads of choice no matter what you are looking to buy.

There are clothes for children up to 10 and adults but nothing for in between (so much for keeping a loyal customer base). I go into this shop a lot but can never be bothered with the hassle of shopping in it. If I want Next clothes I go to a bigger store or their retail outlet at Junction One.

Although i really like next clothes this store is very small and cramped - i much prefer the next…read moreClearance in Antrim Junction One. The ladies stuff is downstairs in this store and the men's and children's is upstairs. Although a well lit, clean shop it is definitely too cramped to cater for what Next has to offer and you get the feeling that there isn't even a small amount in this shop that can be found in the catalogue. The staff don't always seem too friendly or willing to help much. Located in Fairhill shopping centre so no problem with parking.

The M&S is ok and it is likely they are their so called flagship anchor but I'm not a fan of having…read moreto pay to car park just to be able to shop. There are the usual suspects in terms of tenants H&M, EE, Boots, etc but what I have come to dislike immensely is that like others places they charge disabled persons to park. It often takes these folks longer to get in/out of their vehicles and slower at shopping so they are being financially penalised because of their disabilities - this ain't my type of society and reflects an insatiable greed I find really distasteful. I won't return to subsidise greedy bastards.

A little pricey but you get what you pay for and they always have something that you'd love to buy. Stock changes often enough to prevent everyone wearing identical clothes to you but not so often that you don't feel up-to-date. They also sell vouchers so you can drop big hints to relatives and save their offence when they knit you a lovely present.

They have really trendy clothes, handbags, shoes and accessories in here although they can be quite expensive. The best time to go would be sale time when they have rails ranging from £5. They also have a large men's section in this shop. It is a well lit shop with good space and good fitting rooms :) The staff can be quite helpful (apart from the odd few). As it is located in Fairhill Shopping centre there is no problem with parking :)
