Shopping Experience
Pros:
"The array of shops placed in neat rows, side by side."
"Once inside you find an array of big brand retailers on two floors, well laid out for an overall shopping and eating experience."
"The retail is brilliant and littered with both classy and familiar brands and great food outlets."
"There’s a good amount of shops and restaurants, all in the pricier side though."
"A great selection of shops and restaurants and can be a great day out with kids on a rainy day."
"The shops are too expensive for my liking but walking around allows you to see some of the original features of the building which are lovely."
"Great selection of shops. The building has been remodernised to a very high standard."
"I love the urban mixture of old architecture design here. The mall is so open, which is not crowd usually."
Cons:
"The only negative? As you walk away from this experience, you are greeted to the real world across the road."
"There’s a great selection of shops and restaurants and can be a great day out with kids on a rainy day. The food court is smart however it doesn’t offer good selection of food."
"Nice selection of stores, a shame a big part near the bus station still undergoing constructions and the area is a bit shady at night."
"The food court is smart however it doesn’t offer good selection of food. I really feel that it’s a great idea that can really get improved."
"I didn’t care much for the largely high-end mall, which was very busy in the days between Christmas and New Year."
"Lots of money spent on creating this new shopping mall. Vast space with shops & restaurants. Industrial/ modern feel. Shops leaning towards the wealthier / select client."
"Lots of big name fashion shops with no shoppers."
"Expensive but great to see the place back in use after decades of talk."
Architecture and Design
Pros:
"I love this newly renovated and repurposed iconic power station."
"What they have done to this building is simply amazing! The now stunning Battersea power station is a newly built village."
"Such a unique building. A former power plant, one of the biggest in Europe, the inside transformed into a modern shopping center."
"Stunning structure with a lot of areas to sit, enjoy very good food and plenty of options to shop around."
"Well what a magnificent achievement to turn this historic power station into a shopping experience."
"Totally blown away by the renovation of Battersea Power Station."
"It is literally a mall, but the way they have used the power station into a mall is interesting!"
"Fabulous building keeping a bit of English engineering history alive."
Cons:
"Horrible. The power station building was a majestic, crumbling masterpiece. It was probably only ever going to be saved my some seriously deep investor profits, but sadly the result of that is a soulless and dystopian shopping centre surrounded by fishbowl apartments."
"Visited to see the work they have done on the place. It looks impressive from the outside but inside, it's a rather soulless and overpriced shopping mall with label boutiques and expensive eateries."
"First time I've been back here since it opened as a Shopping Centre. Spacious, seems to have a variety of shops and retail outlets here. Toilets are nice, new, clean and spacious too. A lot of options for eating and drinking around here and generally just a nice place to spent some time."
"Industrial icon restored as a defining feature of Londons skyline : plenty of shops, chill areas, food options and overall a nice place to spend your afternoon at. Make sure to check the exhibition about the past of the station and it’s redevelopment."
Food and Dining
Pros:
"The food court is found on the top floor where there is an amazing range of themed vendors food coming out the kitchen."
"Lots of options if you have deep pockets. It’s great that the Apple Store is in here and all vegan restaurant Clean Kitchen."
"Loads of designer shops and we ate at (le bab) absolutely gorgeous kebab style food."
"Great selection of bars and shops, would recommend going to the arcade for food as you can choose to sample the best dishes from all the vendors."
"A great visit for all the family."
"It’s brilliant how they have converted a power station into a shopping mall with top brands yet keep the power station units."
"There are plenty of shops and restaurants within the building as well as outside whether it be on the riverside or the land side."
"Great shopping centre, good choice of shops and restaurants inside."
Cons:
"There’s a great selection of shops and restaurants and can be a great day out with kids on a rainy day. The food court is smart however it doesn’t offer good selection of food."
"Lots of big name fashion shops with no shoppers. However struggled to find a seat in the food hall, something wrong there!"
"Expensive but great to see the place back in use after decades of talk. The lift 109 was cool although the immersive part was a bit lame and the time in the history area is not long enough."
"It’s just not a nice place to be and as a Londoner it makes me really sad to see."
"The arcade is a great food court. The flatbreads alone are worth a visit for. Outside there's a Dishoom too."
"The mall’s surroundings has stunning gardens a cute cafe and it’s conveniently located next to an Uber stations."
"Not fully filled yet but getting there. The shops are. Mixed bag as it's mostly high end stores with no one in them and the cafes and Uniqlo being packed."
"We went to the Battersea General Store and bought lunch then sat by the Riverside walk."
Accessibility and Location
Pros:
"The lifts that I hear are worth the trip just for the views alone!"
"Easy to get to by train and bus."
"Easy to get to just a few stops on the Northern line from Euston station."
"At its peak, Battersea Power Station was supplying a fifth of London's electricity."
"Fabulous concept, stunning building and bustling vibe!"
"You can visit this place by public transport, if you are driving you could use the New Coven Garden Market which is like 10min walk from the mall."
"The Battersea Power Station tube station is very close, so I highly recommend visiting this place."
"Easy to get to, just a few stops on the Northern line from Euston station."
Cons:
"Parking very limited and can take ages to get a spot."
"The area is a bit shady at night but the mall itself is great."
"The food court is smart however it doesn’t offer good selection of food. I really feel that it’s a great idea that can really get improved."
"It took 30 minutes to try and navigate from Battersea Park Station to Battersea Power Station and there was very little sign posting."
"The toilets were dirty and no hooks to put your bag. Very disappointing for a new development!"
"Parking costs quite reasonable for a couple of hours visit and it was easy to find spaces on a Friday night."
"Parking was not horrendously expensive. £15 for 4 to 6 his I think. Shane they don't offer it free at weekends if to pay for the lift experience."
"Took AGES to find The Arcade. We came to The Arcade during its opening weeks and the food was fantastic. Food wasn't so good this time, but the service was very fast."
