Store Layout and Design

Pros:

  • "Tills are spread out on every floor so it makes it easier to pay."
  • "Liked the touches of having sitting areas with charging USBs and plug sockets, located in corner of each floor."
  • "Very big store; recently opened. 5 levels, improved layout, bright & attractive lighting."
  • "Spread over 5 levels, there is men's sections, 2 floors of women's clothes, a baby and children's floor and then the top floor there is a huge home section and relaxation area, stocking yoga items and much more."
  • "Nice sitting places with the cafes and you can refill your water bottle at the refillable water stations."
  • "More like a department store, very modern and spacious."
  • "Visited Primark High Street Branch Birmingham. Everything was well placed."

Cons:

  • "The store itself could do with a good clean and the positioning of most of the clothing lines are scattered not featured."
  • "Very big store I got lost in here and had to ask for help finding my way out."
  • "The only thing I didn't like was clothes mixed around everywhere and in all the wrong places, it made it very hard to figure out the price of some items and looked a little messy."
  • "It could really do with seating on all floors for partners waiting for their other halves to try on 1 item in 15 different colours."
  • "A map on entry would be handy and more staff definitely needed the whole store was so disheveled and untidy."
  • "Things seemed to be scattered about in ladies section, very difficult to find bikini bottoms to match the top as they weren't on the same rail."
  • "But they could maybe arrange and manage everything better, at peak hours it just looks like a flea market with the clothes taken off hangars and some on the floor as well."

  • "Staff are nice and friendly."

Cons:

  • "Awful, dirty changing rooms. I have never seen anything like it - full of litter and food items - staff standing around doing very little!"
  • "The staff on the till are not polite, they say the total price of your goods and no hello or have a nice day."
  • "The employee(woman) who attended me was extremely hostile which surprised me because the customer service has always been excellent."
  • "Staff on the shop floor are just the most unhelpful people you could wish to meet."
  • "The lady at the -2 fitting room was very rude."

  • "Absolutely super awesomely place to shop for your clothing and footwear especially if on a tight budget."
  • "This new one though is much cleaner and neat. Clothes were well presented and not looking like a jumble sale."

Cons:

  • "Nothing extraordinary. Just another primark and to be honest ive been in better stocked ones."
  • "Very disappointed. For all the space in store there isn't a lot of choice."
  • "Clothes on racks needed a good ironing, poor quality fabrics, poor finish on most items and packed to the rafters."
  • "Was told it was the biggest but in truth it's not, Gregg's takes up most of one floor."
  • "Hoped that the biggest Primark in the world will also have a lot more stock that wouldn't be found in other primarks but most of the stuff they have can easily be found in other primarks too."
  • "I was disappointed with the Disney section as there didn't seem to be much choice there."

  • "They even have boyfriend/husband corners sofas excellent to have."
  • "Superb well designed superstore in Central Birmingham. Prices easy on the pocket excellent quality and value."
  • "There is a cafe, a Disney cafe, a barbers, a beauty salon and even 'boyfriend/husband sofas' in corners of the floors."
  • "BIG!!! What can I say, situated over 5 floors with a cafe and multiple entrances and exits at different levels, you will surely find what you need here."
  • "The infrastructure and the interior is very trendy and beautiful."
  • "Offers lots of options for clothes, home base and also has a Gregg's inside!"

Cons:

  • "This Primark store hasn't got a public bathroom."
  • "Closed gents toilets so big queue to use the disabled."
  • "However, what i don't understand is why one of the doors in the ladies toilet by Greggs, on the floor above the men's section is spoilt."
  • "The toilets are so filthy, I'd rather have my bladder burst inside me than use the toilets."
  • "One of the ⭐ milk shakes literally tasted of actual milk with no flavouring, think it should have been mint."
  • "Cafe closed so used the second floor care which was terrible."
  • "But to be threatening a customer his badge should be stripped."
