Getting better all the time. If you like Iceland, there is a new refurbished store, if like me you like Costa, there is a new costa and there is generally a short wait and a good offer / choice. The centre is small but mixed between names like Peacocks and WH Smith, as well as local / independents. The works have good little gifts and Poundland is best value for a quick soft drink n snack as always.
JD sports are really helpful, can order in but it's a nice little store that's never too rammed like city centre stores often are. Staff are great 👍 It's Northfield but it's increasingly a commuter belt town with value.
So Starbucks, McDonalds, HSBC, NatWest, Nationwide, many other big or popular value brand names for banking, eating and shopping are there in the shopping centre or the town itself including a weatherspoons and independent coffee house Cosy Coffee, just a short walk.
It's not a refined shopping centre or town but it's very functional and good value for your day to day stuff. A large Sainsbury ( hence some of the great foods that are fresh too buy) and an Aldi both with enough parking are really handy and a short walk from the shopping centre which has itself, ample parking and a car wash service with many lifts to ensure disabled access to the shops. Parking for an hour I think is as little as a pound!
Victoria Common which the shopping centre straddles and opens out into, all be it via an underwhelming pathway from the centre to the park/common is really great. If one of Birmingham historic public spaces. The centre being so close means you get to enjoy Victoria Common as a pitstop while carrying shopping or a great picnic venue with basketball, football as well as a children's area and loads of open space and a really good seating / table area. So that food and those books from Northfield Shopping Centre can be enjoyed in a great relaxing space. Not forgetting the adult learning centre and the library that boarder the Centre...

WHSmith...The Works & many more. Clean toilets * nice spacious lifts, although the two small lifts you catch from the centre of the carpark, the one doesn't work properly, the one closest to the main entrance, I would recommend the lift to the right. I was pleased to see hand sanitizers by the lifts, clear markings for people to follow...the staff in Poundland can be a bit grumpy, but on the plus side,its well stocked & has many...
Read moreI have been using the grosverner shopping center since I was a little girl I use to go with my mom and dad and my brother and I use to go with my mom when she was a child minder and she would take the minded children with her and then when I was growing up I would go to the shopping centre with my boyfriend many years after and then I would take my own daughter in there many times. Then I moved from Northfield /rubery to harborne and I still use to go every now and again on my own then moved. Then moved struck and people started shopping online,when people didn't have to wear masks I went to the grosvner shopping centre i couldn't believe how many shops had closed down but a lot off staff in the stores that use to be in there knew me personally especially as they were aware of my disabilities I wish the grosvener shopping centre was back to the way it was it was a brilliant shopping center I very rarely get...
