You can't get 70% of the RRP Everyday, but you can in Gloucester!
Set in the heart of Gloucester’s historic docks and artfully restored victorian warehouses, with waterside cafés, bars, restaurants and outlet stores overlooking the 1827 Gloucester and Sharpness canal, Gloucester Quays is the perfect place to start exploring the cathedral city.
All the ‘must see’ attractions from the gothic cathedral to the National Waterways Museum are just a short walk away from the Quays. However, with over 50 outlet shops offering up to 70% off the RRP on stylish fashion and homeware, plus a whole menu of tempting dining options, it’s easy to while away the hours simply discovering everything Gloucester Quays has to offer.
Here’s a flavour of what to expect...
From starting the day with flat white and a fresh pain au chocolat or taking a well deserved break after perusing the top brand labels or exploring the vibrant waterside, the Quays have all tastes covered.
Near the iconic ‘Welcome to Gloucester Quays’ arch, eateries like Bill’s or Caffè Nero, are open from early until late, with the expert baristas at Costa ready to grind you a perfect coffee any time of the day. Other mouth-watering eateries include PizzaExpress, Five Guys, Nando’s and Wagamama. Plus, from craft beer to cocktails and pizza to peri-peri chicken, dinner and drinks are served at Portivo Lounge, TGI Fridays, Brewhouse and Kitchen, the Coal Grill & Bar and Italian favourite Zizzi.
Or just give in to sweet temptation at the ‘pop up’ vintage Cookie Dough van before finding a table in the Great Outdoors dining space and simply watch the world go by.
Even with all the tasty distractions on offer in the Quays, most people just can’t wait to check out the outlet shops to save up to 70% off the RRP on the latest ‘can’t miss’ collections.
With irresistible finds at stores like Ted Baker, Calvin Klein, Joules, Radley London and Barbour to All Saints, Adidas and Jack Wills, it’s almost impossible not to leave with bags full of desirable labels. And now that Hobbs and Raging Bull have joined the who’s who of stores, there are even more reasons to browse for longer.
Plus, at the end of the summer holidays, a visit to the Quays is high on most parents ‘must do’ list, as the big savings on ‘back to school’ essentials at The Works, Asics, Nike Factory Store and Clarks really add up.
Gloucester Quays is also home to one the most popular outdoor markets for miles around. For many years now, on the first weekend of every month, clued up locals and eager foodies head to the Orchard Street Food and Craft market. For delicious local produce, homemade cakes, pastries, savoury treats and unique handmade crafts there is nowhere better.
And that’s not all, as film fans can catch the latest movies and tuck into freshly made popcorn at the Quays’ state of-the-art 10 screen Cineworld.
Plus, Gloucester Quays is just 10 minutes walk from the city centre, or a short taxi ride from the station, and if you are arriving by car, there is secure 24/7 parking for over 14,000 cars.
A memorable day discovering the city of Gloucester starts and ends at Gloucester Quays.
