Westside is not that guy
This mall has great accessibility by car and public transport alike. The architecture is modern and inviting with bright walls and floors. But the layout is confusing, and the lack of boards or useful sign doesn't help. After exploring all the stores on all the floors you'll realize one thing. As an average consumer there are about a handful of stores where you would buy anything. All the others are partly stores which you will never have heard of and others are high end names with big price tags. So it seems Westside tries to be something more than it actually is, a shopping centre for the average person. The food options are also evidence of this. Most of them have two things in common. They are overpriced and underwhelming. Which is a shame considering the variety of foods they have. Apart from shopping and food, Westside includes a water park and cinema. The incident of 2011 when parts of the ceiling came crushing down on swimming guest in Bernaqua is still in the minds of people. So it is a difficult recommendation to make. The thing which saves Westside is its fantastic Pathé Cinema. Many people see Westside as a cinema with extra services. You can watch every new movie in different languages. There are plenty of halls with comfortable seats. The whole premise adds to your cinematic experience with beautiful statues and creative lighting.

Read moreIts big, it has a lot of shopping options and its spacey. The whole thing is monderen built and really great. There are different options for food, clothes and groceryshops. From expensive to moderate to quiet cheap. The cinema is first class and theres a aqua park. Haven't been in there tho. Parking lots are provided and if you go to watch a movie in the cinema you're giving the option of reducing your parking ticket price. The only thing they are lacking is a utility store. So if you're looking for screwdrivers, a new windscreen whipper or a new garden hoe, then this is not the place you should go. Apart from that it has everything even some electronics stores. Great place...
