Shop Variety

Pros:

  • "Vast variety of shops inside and outside Shopping Centre."
  • "Nice variety of shops in the town centre. Mostly the cheaper end of the range, although there is a Marks and Spencer and a small Sainsbury's."
  • "It has every range of product. Everything and I mean everything. Household, groceries, electronics, telecommunications, banks, foods, spa, saloon, post office."
  • "Its actually a good shopping centre that has all the popular shops that I usually shop at. Like the poundland, h&m, tk maxx and super drug."
  • "This is a reasonably good shopping centre with wide malls and a good variety of shops."
  • "It contains the usuals of Boots, Costa and Argos, but there's also a very large H&M with quite a good selection."
  • "Has a OK selection of shops Argos, W H Smith's, Boots, H&M, Tk Max, Pound land, Costa, Greggs, Next, Sainsburys, Marks and Spencer and lots of others."

Cons:

  • "Sadly there aren't that many shops worth visiting in the centre! Many have closed down and replaced by tacky shops selling cheap, outdated clothing."
  • "Outdated and dowdy compared to modern Shopping Malls."
  • "Too many quality shops, and yes I mean Wilko as their selection and prices beat the majority of shops!, are closing and if replaced, replaced by low quality furniture shops and nail/eyebrow bars."
  • "Now its tired and old. H&M, TKmaxx, wilkinson and good old M&S are keeping this place going."

  • "Lewisham Centre never fails to give me a feel good. Very clean."
  • "The shopping centre actually well looked after. There is rarely any trouble, which is surprising for Lewy, but the security are really observant."

Cons:

  • "It felt dirty, and outside it was full of nicotine where people were smoking in the entrance making it hard to breathe."
  • "The cleanliness was a disgrace the floors felt sticky and grimey lots of spilt drinks and the walls were full of marks and general grime."
  • "Centre is full of homeless, smells of cannabis (not good if you have young kids with you) beggars and dodgy looks individuals or groups that make you feel unsafe if you’re with vulnerable people or family."
  • "The outside market is truly unique and horrible!"

  • "Had to use the public toilets as I was desperate (I usually avoid such places) and it was disgusting, unhygienic and poorly cleansed."

Accessibility & Convenience

Pros:

  • "It's got a big car park and within a walking distance you see hair dressers and even mechanic workshops and car dealers should you want to spoil yourself with a new car."
  • "Local parking and wheelchair parking with wheelchair accessibility to the shopping center also."

  • "Great transport links including buses trains and DLR."

Cons:

  • "It closes too early, at 6:00 P. M."
  • "Only down fall is the parking. On Sundays it's £8 for the whole day but £1.40 On a Saturday for the day."
  • "The BIG negative is the parking. Now that everyone had big cars, the parking damages the tyres as its very narrow."
  • "However the car park is very expensive, I usually goes to buy veg, fruits from stalls outside and spend maximum 20 minutes and I need to pay £1.40 on week days or £2 weekend (all day)."

  • "The security staff were amazing today when my 3 year decided to disappear from Shoe Zone and reappeared in Poundland."

Cons:
