“What a lovely friendly gem this is. We booked this as a one night B&B during our South Downs walking holiday. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was lovely ( I judge by the quality of the sausages, they were great). I would certainly highly recommend staying here, we were sadly unable to experience their cream teas mainly due to our own timing of arrival and departure. It's a lovely friendly village and we'll be coming back at some point.”

“I recently telephoned Shoe Gallery for sizing advice for a pair of Joseph Cheaney Jaxson 11 boots as I couldn't find any near home in Newcastle. Great advice, beautiful boots and so comfortable from day one. Also a very good price with free next day delivery. Thank you.”

“We took our grandchildren to the Christmas afternoon tea experience today & it was fabulous. It was so well organised. Tables were prepared for each booking with name badges & food already in place. Father Christmas & Mrs Christmas visited each child & they were given an age appropriate gift that our grandchildren loved. The food was pitched just right for both children & adults & we all had a great time. There was also a later photo opportunity with Father Christmas by the Christmas tree. We'll done to everyone involved in making this such a great event.”

“We set an appointment as we were feeling quite overwhelmed with the amount of items we would need to choose, and the information we didn't know (first time parents ). We were so lucky to have had Cynthia meet with us! She was organised and methodical in her approach, as well as so patient with our million questions! We also appreciated her approach to providing us with advice as we weren't met with the typical sales-y way of just trying to direct us to get whatever is most expensive; instead - she asked us about our lifestyle and expectations/requirements from the items we were looking to buy and provided her input based on that. We're not going to buy the items today, but know that when the time comes, we'll be coming back to this store and asking for Cynthia specifically!”

“Clean spacious store, lots of choice, good prices. Great location in central Brighton.”

“Dropped into Café Coho in Brighton just before closing, and despite it being near the end of the day, the welcome was still warm and friendly — no sense of being hurried out the door. I ordered a strong flat white, and it was exactly what I needed: rich, full-bodied, and clearly made with care, even that close to closing time. The café itself has a clean, stylish feel without trying too hard — relaxed but with attention to detail. The staff were attentive and polite, and there was a sense that they genuinely cared about the quality of both the coffee and the customer experience. It’s easy for some places to switch off as the shutters go down, but not here. That level of consistency says a lot. I’ll absolutely be back again when I'm next in the area, whether it's for a slow sit-down or another quick pick-me-up. Highly recommend if you’re after proper coffee and a professional, no-fuss service in central Brighton.”

“Outstanding Restaurant I had the pleasure of dining here on a Friday evening. The first thing I was so impressed with the menu great choices for vegetarian and meat consumers alike. I started with scalops which I shared with my girlfriend and the portion was ample for two. Then I had pork belly. My girlfriend had the beef. Every mouthful of food was absolutely superb. The staff are friendly helpful and proactive. Even the drinks were first class. I cannot wait to return. Not overpriced too”

“I swung in here yesterday to find some whiskey. They were sold out of what I was looking for. The gentleman behind the counter helped me anyways and wet out of his. I didn’t catch his name but he was at the till at the back of the store around 6pm on July 26th. Thank you. I’m going to make sure that I send my friends to your store and that I come back. Thank you for being kind.”

“Bought a lovely pair of leather boots with 75% discount. Amazing value. It would appear to be short staffed, but the Staff that are available are attentive, polite and friendly and work very hard”

“A great shop that was sorely missed by a brief absence. A wide range of gadgets that provide a place to shop for people that have ‘everything else’. Friendly staff that can demonstrate most of the gadgets for you and can advise you on complimentary purchases. Conveniently situated in the Arndale, well worth a visit.”

“Amazingly helpful staff who looked for a top that I lost earlier in the day, They are always really helpful and friendly and positive. I always have a chat at the till and they always engage with me and make me feel like they wanted me to be there and they’re always really complimentary about the stuff that I bought. Always a positive shopping experience. Ericka”

“Staff were super relaxed and kind. Paying was quicknand easy. I reccomend it to anyone looking for cool/ interesting items/toys.”

They stock some of the best brands which I know I can buy elsewhere but I will always go back to The childrens carousel for the personal service. 5 stars is not enough!!”
