Meadowbank Shopping Park — Attraction in City of Edinburgh

As a lot of other people have said, the descent shops have now moved (or been pushed) out, ie TK Max, M&S, basically the only places I'd go and take a browse. Center otherwise filled with pound stores galore, selling all the same things..and of course groceries, which is essential, but, doesn't make for anything unique going on here. Shame that they say they're diversifying their shop range to bring in a tenant mix, but to me it seems all meadowbank shopping centre managers have done is significantly narrow it 😅 There's absolutely no 'leisure' here. Esp for the older folks who used to enjoy a browse of the home and clothes items. So basically, get in, get out.. essentials.. tick! Good one stop shop for all yours cleaning...

It's OK for what it is. It's right in the middle of town with reasonable parking. The shops are all a bit samey. The M&S outlet is being replaced with Home Bargains which will accompany poundstretcher, poundland, B&M and TK Maxx to make an unholy alliance of discount stores. Additionally you have a large sainsburys and a Mecca bingo Hall, and both the KFC and Costa sit in/drive thrus. It's a good place to hunt for a bargain and there's a charity shop attached on street level. There's plenty of buses available nearby that serve the local and wider area, but no taxi rank. Sainsburys offer toilets, as does the Bingo Hall, but for food you're looking at a short walk to Abbeyhill for anything more substantial than...

A gym using three spaces that should have been used for retail (hence the name Meadowbank retail park) a bingo using three spaces too. Seems rent coming in is more important than becoming what you claim to be. Meadowbank 5 mins down the road means two gyms in the same street. This retail park has gone from mediocre to pathetic. Two supermarkets and cheap tat shops with an overpriced coffee shop/drive thru. First rent time here in a while and can see absolutely no reason to return in the near future. TK Maxx now at the fort. Clothes shops at the fort. Phone shops at the fort. Takeaways at the fort. Restaurants at the fort. Parking on match days available at the fort. Meadowbank “retail” park...
