I often visit this convenient shopping centre near my home for all my everyday needs, including groceries, fresh meat, toiletries, and other essential items. It’s a small but well-organized hub that caters to most of the daily necessities without the hassle of crowded stores or long lines.
The shopping centre features a few notable stores such as a Morrisons, Farm Fresh for fresh produce, and Top Cellar, a popular wine shop. Additionally, there’s dears pharmacy for medicines and health products, an ATM for quick cash withdrawals, and a post office for mailing needs. Several other small stores are also available, making it a one-stop-shop for most errands.
One of the biggest advantages is the peaceful environment—usually not crowded at all—which makes shopping more comfortable. Parking is plentiful, with ample space for commuters, and the location is quite accessible from nearby areas like Muirhouse and West Pilton. Most stores open early in the morning and stay open until 9 pm, providing flexibility for different schedules.
Cost-wise, the prices here are significantly cheaper compared to the central parts of Edinburgh, especially around the high street. This makes it an economical choice for regular shopping trips. Also, within the shopping centre, there’s a pub—perfect if you ever want to relax with a drink after a long day of shopping.
