The Regent Shopping Centre in Kirkintilloch is not quite as big as I had hoped! It looks great from the outside, and the website seems to promise a lot, but I was a little disappointed when I found myself in there.
First things first, the Regent Centre does have great parking facilities. There is a car park at ground level, as well as a roof top car park - so there are generally always plenty of places to park. Oh and PS, they're all free!
The main attraction really is the Tesco that lives on the first floor of the centre. It's quite a big Tesco, and will fulfill all your general food-related needs. Although you will find a selection of newspapers and magazines - there are no CDs or DVDs in this store.
Downstairs is a little more of a disappointment, aside from a Superdrug, a very small Boots and a few card shops, the centre has quite little to offer. There are one or two individual clothes shops, but they didn't excite me very much at all!
Overall, the Regent Centre looks nice, and is great for the parking and the Tescos - but perhaps don't expect to get very much else from it! read more
