    It is always worth popping into The Works as you never know what bargains you may stumble across. Whilst not stocking the latest titles, you can always find a decent range of authors in their 3 for £5 section. It isn't the biggest Works branch by any means, but always seems to be well stocked and staff are always on hand to answer any questions you may have.

    Good bargains on the two for £10 range. My mum bought two paint a squishy and paint a rock for her great granddaughter for Christmas. They had lots of choice for all ages and interests.

    Hit and miss for whether you can find anything you want, but when you do it's always at a hefty discount on RRP. Staff have always been great.

    As a wheelchair user it's horrendous to get round. I'm often pulled backwards while my husband moves things. Today it was giant canvases stacked on the floor. Every aisle is blocked by something somewhere. Staff saw me, they asked if they could pass me something I replied with I want to shop myself thank you. They didn't offer to move things for me. I couldn't get to some of the things I wanted. I had to go to the checkout the wrong way.

    Just come out of your crystal peaks store at 12.28 even though the staff could clearly see me at the counter waiting to pay she decides to carry on fiddling with the books this was after she'd had a conversation on the phone about some one bringing her purse from break, not a work related call, I left the goods on the cou8and left I won't be coming back

    Use this shop often always great value for money and staff normally very nice and helpful went in other day and wanted some colouring canvases piled so high couldn't get the one I wanted a member of the public came to help me and sent the lot crashing down, a member of staff came across and was extremely rude to me gave me a proper telling off even though it wasn't my fault

  • 5/5 True N. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice to see plenty in the shelves, the shop is very crowded with stock and when you combine that with people it is difficult get round easily without a bit of a jostle but that aside it is worth a look because there are bargains to be had here, among the stationary , books or art supplies, nice shop and helpful staff

👍👍 This branch is really good with a lot of items variety. Chloe was really professional and nice, she helped me choose a suitable face moisturiser which is not an easy task, but eventually we were able to find the right one that is working extremely well.
