This newly opened Boots has replaced their longstanding store just ten seconds further down. I'm…read moreincreasingly confused about why the good people of Boots spent the time and money to make this venture - as it is seems to be exactly the same inside! You may think that every Boots in the country is going to be the same; generic, bland but ultimately useful. But you'd be wrong! This Boots is FANTASTIC. It's absolutely massive for a start so you're bound to find whatever cosmetic or pharmaceutical product you're after. And best of all it has the most helpful and friendly staff of any shop in Bath. Whenever I've been in, one of the shop assistants has been at hand to help me find me exactly what I'm after or recommend something new to me. This Boots also has a great range of cosmetics and perfumes which I've never seen in any of their other stores. My best buy here has been the new Prada perfume at £35 which was sold out everywhere else I'd been.

No doubt trying to capitalise on the recent opening of Westgate 'shopping centre' - quite literally…read morethe most pointless and film-set (as in Bath stone slapped over a makeshift metal frame) like collection of shops I've seen in a long while. Boots should have stayed in their original position, which was a much bigger store, and saved themselves a packet of money. The layout has been kept more or less the same, though, which is a boon, as I got to know my way around the other one pretty well when hunting for cold remedy and the like. It's just that I hate coming into Westgate. Bah.

This was our big Boots that was knocked down to build the Southgate development. The current main…read morestore is on Stall Street and is too small - awful to shop in at weekends, but OK during the week. Staff are really helpful, the stock isn't nearly as good as the old store and a third of teh store is premium beauty (because rich people shop in Bath, probably). Not much space for Christmas stock here, but you can still get your toothbrush and deodorant, and the pharmacy counter always has good advice.

Boots moved into this location around 2007 when the new Southgate development was planned in Bath…read more Initially I hated the new Boots; it wasn't significantly smaller than the old location but the items it stocks seems a lot less. Now I used to it, its not so bad! Staff are very friendly, they provide helpful advise and stocks are usually good on most items I buy. More recently they've put more shelving in the makeup section which makes it much more tricky to just get into the store; maybe the ladies like it but as a bloke, I hate having to dodge my way through shoppers just to get to the lunch section (sorry I've become a grumpy old man :) )

Boots is the pharmacy/health and beauty equivalent of a supermarket. It's got a pharmacy section on…read morethe top floor, with pretty much every medicine you could think of and well-trained staff. The ground floor has health and beauty products ranging from sanitary products to bubble bath to make-up. Pretty much all mainstream brands are in here and Boots own-brand products are often exactly the same as more expensive equivalent brands, but half the price. They do a small range of food and drink for snacks and lunchtime, which tries to be healthy, but is just the same as you can get in most high street shops that are trying to diversify into lunches. Keep an eye out for lunch deals where you can get a sandwich, snack and drink combo deal for a good price.

So off to Boots for some great smelly soap & shampoo - I like their Boots Brand Lilac fragrance the best And while you're there, pick up some water or some fun nail polish, or a 220v hairdryer.... or whatever Boots has it all!

Always worth checking out these offers as the points really do add up! This store has everything including a huge amount of makeup (a personal weakness). Check out the jemma kid range! The store is well arranged and their is a seperate area for the queue so it doesn't interrupt the rest of the store, there is usually a large queue in here but it never seems to take long to clear, they always have a lot of people on the tills in busy times.

All the essentials and toiletries through the middle section and perfumes and aftershaves on the right side. Great selection of almost everything in the store, the pharmacy has plenty of staff to serve you, the gifts are plentiful and this store is very good for sales after christmas etc. I've never not been able to find anything I've wanted in this Boots!

Because I wasn't familiar with the brands, I got the assistance of a young lady who worked in the Medicine Dept. She asked thorough questions to make sure she recommended the right one. Although I went for the Pharmacy this store was quite large. There were cards, snacks, sandwiches and drinks. There also was a large assortment of beauty, hygiene and toiletry products. Probably even more departments in the back that I didn't see.

She looked at me rudely straight in the face and blanked me completely and didnt bother to give me an answer. She just turned around to her colleague and pretended that she was speaking about someone else in front of me to her colleague. I am a person from a minority ethnic background and I just know the motive was pure racism. I didn't bother saying anything more because did not want to cause any DRAMA. I just turned around and walked away, this ruined my mood and shopping experience in Boots.
