Wheelers
is
a
Loughborough
institution
and
will
be
a
store
that
I
have
always
loved
spending
time
in,
it’s
impossible
not
to
rate
this
store
highly
hence
the
5
stars,
however
-
I
visited
recently
and
things
have
changed
dramatically.
The
staff
who
are
absolutely
lovely
tell
you
the
moment
you
walk
in
there
is
more
variety
online
and
that
the
boxes
you
are
walking
around
are
due
to
deliveries
coming
in
/
orders
going
out.
They
ask
are
you
fine
to
browse.
All
good
customer
service
-
I’m
not
questioning
that
at
all.
The
problem
is
that
telling
customers
about
your
online
presence
sets
them
on
edge
-
they
have
made
an
effort
to
come
in
person
to
look
at
the
amazing
items
on
sale
but
it
doesn’t
feel
like
Wheelers
anymore.
I
felt
uncomfortable
walking
around
what
felt
more
like
a
back
office
to
a
thriving
empire.
I’m
thrilled
the
business
is
booming
online
but
they
seem
to
have
forgotten
the
locals
who
have
been
coming
for
years,
long
before
the
website!
I
used
to
come
here
with
my
grandparents
and
we
would
be
there
for
ages,
always
made
a
purchase
and
always
used
their
coffee
shop
upstairs.
I
get
it
-
times
move
on
and
of
course
with
covid
they
had
to
move
online
to
stay
afloat.
I
get
it
and
I’m
glad
the
business
has
survived
where
other
retailers
haven’t
been
able
to.
I
just
felt
compelled
to
let
you
know
that
the
shop
just
doesn’t
feel
welcoming
anymore,
if
I
wanted
to
buy
stuff
online
I
would
-
but
I
like
to
visit
shops
sometimes
too
especially
local
independent
ones.
I
don’t
imagine
the
shop
will
continue
as
it
is
as
it’s
used
more
for
an
office
/
distribution
hub
but
thanks
for
the
years
of
pleasant
browsing
and
customer
service
please
don’t
forget
the
local
community
who
helped
you
to
become
what
you
are
today!
