    We normally avoid shopping malls, but on a blustery winter's day made an exception. Busy! Good car park, including plenty of electric charge points if you need them.

    Awsome place to visit. Weekdays you find less people on streets but during weekend you find many people out for shopping. Very good planning and construction.

    Bristol is a highly rated shopping destination (2nd in the country?) And it's not difficult to see why. I only live in Cardiff and my visits to Bristol have been enjoyable, convenient, eco-friendly (came by train) and inexpensive. There is a large shopping area and more importantly lots of small shops and a very commendable market named after me! Thanks Bristol!

    Nice shopping centre. Got everything you need. Lots of choices to find somewhere to eat. All the toilets are clean and the bins are never full. Prefer this to Cribbs Causeway even though it's free parking there. πŸ‘

    Such a concrete jungle. But amongst the new multi layer precincts I found an old department store used for arty independent sellers almost like Glastonbury style eco stalls. A breath of fresh air. Parking quite pricey and emission zone could cost for older cars. Use park n ride.

    Best place in Bristol to walk around There's lots of restaurants, toilets, cafes, clothing stores, accessories stores, you name it. Great and quite affordable. It is a tad bit expensive but mostly okay. The cost depends on the store. Amazing mall. Would come again. 10/10

    Clean and crowded. Can shop for branded stuff for expensive to affordable prices. Don't forget to grab a bubble tea from Bubblogy.I wish there could be more places to get photocopies for a reasonable price.

    Large shopping area...with all the main stores, numerous small stores, arcades all you need if your a shopaholic.

  • 5/5 Shawn S. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 77 reviews
    This is a dual shopping centre with good parking, public transport and in my case wheelchair accessible. The Cabot Circus is new and trendy with the galleries providing an alternative less popular but the post office is located here. Also the third largest Primark is located outside the Galleries. All giving value for types of pockets. The images are from the old M&S store which is now Sparks and is full of pop ups from recycled to alternative fashion. Cafe is ££

  • 5/5 Lil_miss_57 3 months ago on Google β€’ 67 reviews New
    Fabulous place to go shopping. They have all sorts, your usual mall shops as well as some local and independent stores too. Large number of places to eat, loos on each floor, fab.

  • 4/5 Abazuom S. 1 year ago on Google β€’ 54 reviews
    I went to willow Brook for a little shopping but I was surprised alot by the activities for children going on there. Not sure of the Starr time but when I asked they said it was only for that day and was finishing by 9pm They had a whole Christmas thing going on which was so nice. They had different dress up cartoon characters from grinch to smurf and others. I did sing and dance along to the good music playing and the staff working there were nice. As for the shops, they were so full as it was days before Christmas but the decorations around were lovely

  • 5/5 Kevin W. 10 months ago on Google
    Great place to shop, plenty of food halls, which are not over priced, prices to suit all budgets. I must admit that the security team are more than happy to help you find your way around, also they are approachable and very friendly. I would recommend this place to everyone.

  • 3/5 Daniel A. 2 years ago on Google
    Good variety of shops in the middle of town. Shame it’s taking up space of indies though. Despite that there are a lot of shops that don’t appear anywhere else in Bristol to make some of the corporate nature more palatable. It looks beautiful in here at night though, very underrated spot aesthetically.

  • 5/5 Digital R. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant place to go for a day out or shopping!!! Nice variety of shops all around. Plenty of choice for restaurants and places to eat at Cabot Circus. We noticed there was a cinema too, although we did not use its facilities, so we couldn't comment on it. Lots of parking space within the actual mall, although it was a bit tricky to get to, specially because of the traffic around. Overall great place for rainy days with lots to do.

  • 5/5 Yasumy V. 2 years ago on Google
    Good choice of shops. Classic city centre shopping. The literal centre of it all has many little bits to it. Our little lad loves jumping from colour to colour on the writing on the pavement. Great idea and nice sentiment.

    Visited Bristol for the day. Really liked the shopping centre. It had a wide range of shops. Clean and loved the zen music playing from the speakers on the way in from the car park. Made you feel very relaxed. Would definitely visit it again.

  • 5/5 Creep e. 1 year ago on Google
    A very good selection of shops and interesting places to eat and drink, give the place a go

  • 5/5 Rahul N. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely enjoyable space (I'm a bit biased as I'm living close and enjoying it a lot) with a great selection of brands and always filled with events (pictures from 2021 light festival)

  • 5/5 Jennifer C. 11 months ago on Google
    Great shopping centre. Easy parking, plenty of places to eat, all major shops.

  • 4/5 Can SΓΆnmez (. 2 years ago on Google
    This is my local shopping quarter. Loads of shops and nice places to eat (and nice shops with stuff to eat, Hotel Chocolat normally gives out samples), plus more niche tastes like a Warhammer shop. Clean and modern, though it can be busy. Some shops are empty at the mo, I guess because of the covid/Brexit double whammy, but not enough to impact the vibrant atmosphere.

  • 3/5 James C. 10 months ago on Google
    If you're a fan of dead malls, design straight out of the late 80's and things slowly falling apart this is the place for you. Long, long gone are its best years. So outside of the odd shop this place's charm is really just as a short cut. Though the post office is useful... So that's nice.

  • 3/5 Andi 5. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a great place for shopping. The X'mas market was quite big but it does get very crowded. The decorations were lovely to look at and the mall is huge! Be prepared to queue for food venues. If you spend the day here, the river is lovely to walk down to

  • 5/5 Mark O. 9 months ago on Google
    This shopping precinct is one of the best I have walked into if not the best. No matter how many places and shops I went to I was not bored in Bristol and unlike most City Centers further south the Shops in Bristol are open and the City Centre is Absolutely Packed with Customers.

  • 5/5 Amelia p. 7 months ago on Google
    A good place to shop high street brands and designer and get nice food. Clean and near lots of cool things. Always have some entertainment going on.

  • 4/5 DEVAN T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great! So many different thing that everyone will love. Many different varieties of styles many food and drink places,clothing electronics stores and shoes many many more really enjoyed although you will need alot of money because there r just so many places that u want to go!

  • 4/5 Tyler G. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 13 reviews
    Quite clean, good selection of stores and easy to navigate. No problems during the night either to account for. Less E-Scooters would make it a lot better, had my foot run over three times there but that's a generalised issue.

  • 5/5 Muzzamil L. 2 years ago on Google
    Great selection of shops & cafes, accessible by bus & largely pedestrianised. There are also plenty of essential services based here, and the vibe is also very good. They have done a good job making an otherwise dodgy area of Bristol into a useful space. Shops cater to all budgets & there are plenty of outdoor activities here for your entertainment

  • 5/5 Carlos E. 2 years ago on Google
    Great shopping experience. Good food places, COVID safe on most shops.

  • 5/5 Suga S. 2 years ago on Google
    Love shopping here, competitive prices and everything you need. Helpful security staff and nice and clean.

  • 5/5 Jason B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place plenty to do, shop, eat & have fun. Great cinema, easy parking

  • 5/5 Mark H. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good multi-level shopping that is a covered outdoor environment. Good range of shops, cinema and restaurants.

  • 3/5 Zizi S. 2 years ago on Google
    Lot of tacky people smoking and sitting on the floor, but nice shops. We had to come out of this area as the smell of urine was horrendous, but the indoors are clean and nice shops.

  • 3/5 Sam P. 2 years ago on Google
    Only came for the cinema delux, and some food. Not really interested in any of the retail here and all the restaurants are very similar (burgers, chicken, more burgers and grill). The Xmas decorations are up..... I think. Big creepy Santa is the main feature, other than that it's a bland shopping space with little draw. On a positive it was very clean and tidy and the Β£3 parking after 5pm is good.

  • 4/5 Steven M. 2 years ago on Google
    Its fine but busy. All the shops are close by and there is a big selection of stores. Only 10 mins walk to it for me- so it is quite convenient

  • 4/5 Matthew P. 2 years ago on Google
    Too busy this time of year and can be a tad expensive as well. The atmosphere is really good, it's a shame about the enforcement officers waiting to pounce on you at any moment... Kinda makes you want to shop somewhere else less monitored...

  • 5/5 Serge R. 2 years ago on Google
    Busy, but convenient place for shopping. Good choice of shops. Under roof, so bad weather is not a problem.

  • 4/5 Gary C. 2 years ago on Google
    Lots of restaurants to choose from but only letting in limited numbers so you have to book most of them in advance. We ended up in five guys & food was lovely

  • 5/5 Shaun L. 2 years ago on Google
    Brilliant shopping quarter. Really helpful people. Great variety of shops. Love Bristol.

  • 5/5 Ralph B. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved it Christmas market , house of Frazer, costa coffee always tops, teatime in Coal very pleasant, the only sad thing was a visit to M and S who are closing down soon looked like they already had Men's section was bare, rest a bit shabby really hence 1 star lost . Went to the Cinema first time in over 2 years Wot 2 years 😳. Watched West Side story loved it gritty but quality .

  • 4/5 julespopy 2 years ago on Google
    Very cute lovely stalls ✌🏽😊

  • 2/5 Daniele P. 2 years ago on Google
    Most of the people no waring face covering masks, very disappointing during these times. Especially on those stalls where food handlers were talking onto the food without much attention. Very down side on that. Overall decent Christmas market with nice atmosphere. Pricing little bit razy on certain products. Hot dogs go anywhere from Β£6 to Β£10 and nothing special and very basic as personal opinion... More products selection would be beneficial for the market as most of the products are repeated within stalls... I would definitely fancy to have more choice!

  • 5/5 Ben C. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome shopping centre! Lots of good shops to choose from and kept very well. The centre has some unique architecture too, looks great!

  • 1/5 Ian T. 2 years ago on Google
    Tried to exchange a Christmas present for a different size. Boots completely unworn, proof of debit but without the receipt that they never emailed out I was unable to do so. Always get a paper copy. Sham of a shop.

  • 1/5 World Service S. 2 years ago on Google
    Shopping center.OK but multiple road closures giving diversion after diversion on walk from train station make it a wait to 2023 to when it is walkable. Why councils don't consider closure permits in the context of other applications to close roads is beyond me.

  • 5/5 Tracy H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great. Christmas market was on....very festive.

  • 5/5 Tony J. 2 years ago on Google
    Very busy not many people waring face coverings.I haven’t been here for 16 months and wonder what crisis (Covid)however it did look great.

  • 5/5 Chris W. 2 years ago on Google
    Bristol Cabbot Circus is amazing place. So many shops and restaurants to choose from you won’t go wrong. Been coming year every year for last 9 years. Great experience and would recommend to anyone thinking of visiting,

  • 3/5 Zeno Zen (. 2 years ago on Google
    There Is a lot more potential for the stores and restaurants.. I wish they were a lot better when it comes to everything ! Restaurants expensive and they don t deliver the experience. Stores with nothing revolutionary in the fashion industry. Amazing view.

  • 4/5 Benoit D. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a nice start to a visit to Bristol. Cabot Circus car park is ideally located, ant the shopping centre is very well integrated with the old centre, with great atmosphere and lot's of places where to eat and drink ! Great for a full day in the city!

  • 5/5 Charlie S. 2 years ago on Google
    If you cant get what you need or grab a bargain here,you aren't looking hard enough. At the moment the Christmas Market with its artisan gifts and food is definitely worth a look.
