    Only used this as a walkthrough. So took in the sights of Bedford. Some tidy areas, some not, but it does look like they are regenerating the town centre. It should look great once completed and all the scaffolding and footpaths/roads are restored.

    Inside is ok but the streets around look like something from the third world ... Alcoholics, Rough sleepers, Limbless beggars ... Very intimidating ... Makes me sad as a trip to Bedford used to be something special ... Won't be going again

    A vibrant shopping center located in the heart of Bedford. Clothes, pharmacy, personal care product, thrift stores, kids' stuff, there is something for everyone. My personal favourite is the Italian produce store selling cheese, tomato sauce and different types of pasta. It's fun to take a stroll and spend some time shopping here.

    It's a functional shopping centre. Very handy to walk around inside and pick up your lunch at Tesco or a coffee at Starbucks.

    It’s a nice little shopping centre but they really need some better shops.

    Clean and tidy, not so many empty shops now, quite a variety of shops

    Who doesn't love Greg's! For me, it's the roulette game side of things. Will it be hot, won't it!? The joy this brings me is great. The food is generic the same no matter where you go. But all in all, it's okay

    The Harpur Centre is a shopping centre in the centre of Bedford. It is a very short walk from the bus station and river and it is a bit of a longer walk from the main railway station. There are many chain stores within the centre including Boots, Argos and WH Smith. There is also parking above the centre so you can drive straight there. Part of the centre is in the same style as the traditional architecture which is good that they have adapted it rather than ignoring the local area. If you are in the area there are plenty of shops to take your fancy.

    You can find some good stores there, bit some closed and are currently unoccupied. There's a fitness, coffee shop, pharmacy, a few clothes stores, a couple of opticians, jewelry shop, a few smaller shops for all types of things, public toilets, you can grab some food too. It is not as big as the Interchange one or the Mall in MK, but yet, there are plenty of things to see and buy.

    It was fine, but the number of closed shops just shows that country is not in a good state.

😠 I will never visit again despite coming here for the last 10 years as a local. Legal and general be ashamed! You cannot shop for longer than 4 hours which when pregnant and wanting to stop for lunch in Costa with a friend to break up our shopping trip is quite easy to creep over the 4 hours. I had n...

😠 Beware of Parking fine. I have been visiting this retail park for years & didn’t realise it was a maximum 2hr parking limit. I really enjoyed visiting home sense, home bargains, popping into Lidl for their fresh bakery and then going for a coffee at costa! However, my last trip took me over the 2hr...

👍👍 A small retail park with a limited range of stores. Easy to get to with a large car park which is free to use for up to 3 hours. There are plenty of disabled car parking spaces, but there are no EV charge points here. Be careful of the speed bumps entering / leaving the car park as they are vicio...

🫤 Can't recommend it as a shop owner or as customer. The owner of the premises was rude and uninterested when I spoke with him. Premises were also HIGHLY overpriced, with no room for negotiation. As a customer, there used to be a surprising amount of small shops, but now there's 4 and everything els...
