    Hooge mall!!! Lots of shops here. I didnt get to visit all but I will definitely be back. We went to Cosmos for buffet, the kids went up to the arcade and had loads and loads of fun. I will definitely be back one day soon.

    A large retail and going out centre, with a cinema, eateries, a Sainsbury's and many retail shops. There is ample paid parking and good access by car, bus and train.

    A nice collection of hobby stores, kids attractions, supermarket, eateries a bank collectively make up the Brewery, along with a cinema and other stores. It has paying car parks disabled accesses and parking and is a decent place to shop. When it's busy, access and egress is very busy and can lead to alot of traffic.

    When it's not raining and during the day it's a lot brighter but these Christmas lights made the place look a lot more pretty. Like one of those American shopping malls where they actually bother to clean the place. Sometimes parking can be a nightmare but when you get a spot and find what you want... it's very pleasant. Quite close to home as well.

    The Brewery caters to a nice selection of stores, food joints and entertainment, from Smyths, Hobbycraft, TGI Friday's to Namco Funscape, there's something for everyone. Getting here with public transport, Romford station (Overground/TfL Rail/greateranglia) or via buses, 128/193/496 at The Brewery (Stop R/S). Not bad at all.

    Great shopping mall in Romford. Staff are friendly. They is plenty or parking available for a fee if over 2 hours. There is security onsite. Variety of different stores here. Movie theater, restaurants, clothing stores, banks, arcades and many more. Always busy and active place during the day. Movie theater is all the way up.

    Now the parking payment is card only. I was waiting to pay to exit but the person at the front does not own a debit or credit card when speaking the the person after calling for assistance all they said was need a card or go to the exit they will take your number and send out a fine in the post. (Not really full of Christmas spirit and cheer) You need to have an option for people to pay cash as not everyone owns a card.

    Brewery is a beautiful building complex that has many retail outlets including Cosmos, where we visited last Saturday for great night out. A very lovely pre Christmas evening.πŸ‘

    Apart from the casual spitting in the streets and odd stabbing here and there the place is actually quite handy, lots of useful shops, added bonus of sainsbury staff all smoking infront of the doors as you walk in is a lovely touch, gotta love that tobacco stench, what a welcome!

  • 5/5 Donna R. 4 months ago on Google β€’ 17 reviews
    There is very limited shopping and entertainment where I live and this to me is amazing. Parking is easy (except Sundays when it's free) love the shops and the entertainment facilities. Had my first date here almost a year ago in the funco arcade.

    We visited the Toby Carvery and then the Bowling Ally afterwards. The Toby wasn't too bad, a little slow on the service even though it wasn't busy at 17:00 on a Friday and the food could have been a little better. But the staff were freindly and welcoming. I would like to think that they would have more staff on at busier times. For bowling we were put in lane 15 which kept getting stuck and there were a few missing pins and a couple of rounds. We did complain and they put us on the lane 14 and gave us a free game token. The staff freindly enough but again, when it's gets too busy not too sure how the staff will cope. Other activities in the Bowling Ally include pool which are around 8 to 10 tables ( Didn't count) and an arcade. We didn't get food but the drink service was OK.

    A decent choice of restaurant venues here without having to travel too far. Decent value for bowling, arcade and cinema here too.

  • 5/5 Vanessa and J. 2 months ago on Google β€’ 13 reviews New
    The Brewery offers everything you could need, from shopping at TK Maxx, Entertainers, and Smyths Toys to fantastic dining options like Frankie & Benny's. With ample parking at an affordable rate and its proximity to Romford station, it's a wonderful, family-friendly destination in East London/Essex. You'll find all you need without having to venture to Central London.

  • 5/5 Shaz K. 2 years ago on Google
    Great 24hrs access carpark and shops to purchase from. Always see security and cleaners presence at major footfall points

  • 5/5 Dionne F. 4 months ago on Google
    Very handy parking here, as there are soo many shops to choose from. The parking system has changed. It works via number plate recognition, so still remember to visit the meter before leaving, as the barriers will not let you out.

  • 4/5 Barry M. 2 years ago on Google
    Free parking on Sunday and plenty of spaces nice and easy to move.about.tje high street and then into the liberty, plenty of pubs in the area

  • 5/5 Geoff T. 2 years ago on Google
    I quite like it there in a quirky sort of way I also like the bird wall and Zizzi restaurant upstairs I know one of the waitresses by sight there as well

  • 5/5 Danail M. 2 years ago on Google
    What ever you want to eat, you can eat. A lot of brands here.So that is not news for you. Just enjoy and spend your money here)))

  • 2/5 Carole N. 1 year ago on Google
    We attended a birthday do at Cosmo. First time ever in this place. My party found the place over rated. Buffet style dinning (which we did not kno it was going to be) is not for us! Food was dried out and lukewarm. Variety wasn't all that ... cldnt understand y some people were Pilling their plates upπŸ˜• saw a lot of wastage unfortunately. Mall was big tho ... other places to explore then😊

  • 4/5 Debbie E. 1 year ago on Google
    I don't go shopping in Romford much now as impaired mobility but its always a must a few weeks before Christmas, for the atmosphere more than anything else. Parking can be troublesome though, unless you get up very early. πŸ˜‰

    Despite there being a large car park blue badge holders aren't exempt, there are more shops which isn't clear until you walk through an alley at the side of the old gap store which is now a temp over priced xmas shop. Also there's a pie mash shop best avoiding there its called Robins, mash tasted like boiled potatoes pie was OK. Seating area plenty of it but if your like me and have a big bum you will struggle to sit. I should have taken pick sooner, mash was left couldn't tolerate any more of the bland taste.

    Great experience πŸ‘ the children had lots to do... Some of the machines had some in appropriate images of scandalously dressed women- which was a shock 😲 . There was lots to do.. fun day over all.

  • 2/5 James S. 1 year ago on Google
    This place feels run down and dirty. The loos were out of service when we visited. It's not somewhere I'd visit voluntarily but my daughter was going to another kid's birthday bash at Kidscape. She enjoyed it.

  • 5/5 Aroush & S. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing and fun place for kids

  • 5/5 Precious S. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a day out to celebrate a friend's birthday in Romford. From Cosmo to exploring the brewery. We had a blast. Food was very delicious at Cosmo World Buffet( so much to choose from) and restaurant staff very friendly. If you looking for a nice day out in Romford (London) then the Brewery is for you. It has everything you need, from food to entertainment.

    Browsing but unfortunately since Debenhams and other good shops have gone. Not much choice, disappointing. Thinking of now using Westfield... Shame but more variety.

  • 3/5 Jay J. 1 year ago on Google
    I went to Zizzi's for my birthday with a close friend. The drink I wanted was out of stock, as was my 2nd choice, but 3rd time lucky. The main I wanted was out of stock, so I had to re-select. I ended up with chicken pasta with a glass of rose wine when I really wanted chicken cooked with vegetables and a pint of cider. It was all ok, nothing to shout about.

  • 5/5 Michelle H. 2 years ago on Google
    Went to Namco Funscape.Been lots of times before.A great selection of slot machines,a few ride on machines I.e bikes and a virtual reality ride whichbwas extremely popular.This ride was Β£3 but well worth it and my son went on it twice because he screamed with delight as did every other child.They also have a bowling alley there but it's best to book online as they get booked up in advance so to avoid being dissapointed on arrival- be prepared!

  • 4/5 Vinniebabe 2 years ago on Google
    Loads of nice restaurants, tonnes of parking and an arcade, bowling alley and cinema for entertainment options. A hub and meeting place for people of all ages. There are plenty of shopping options in the surrounding retail park and town center. Easy walking distance to the station too

  • 4/5 Dylan F. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of great shops to choose from with entertainment venues as well as restaurants. Plenty of parking however you do have to pay. Cleanliness could be better but overall a great place too shop.

  • 5/5 Md H. 2 years ago on Google
    I only have one word to describe my experience at this shop: fantastic! The staff were very helpful and friendly. They were able to help me find the right size and recommend different styles that would suit me.

  • 4/5 kayode A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for entertainment, shopping and eating out. A good wide range of eating out places such as Cosmos, Pizza Express Nandos, Toby Carvery, TGF and Zizzi.

  • 4/5 Eugene B. 1 year ago on Google
