This is a relatively small H & M in Southend High Street, a new much bigger store is currently being fitted out in the Royals due to open Spring 2009. This will be a welcome relief as the current store has no wheelchair / buggy access to the first floor where all the women's clothes are. It is virtually impossible to carry a buggy up the narrow winding stairs, so no shopping in there for us Mum's!
Having said that for small store the range of clothes is good, both for children and babies (downstairs) and women. The staff are pleasant and helpful although at busy times the queues can be long and slow with only 1 or 2 tills open. There is also a good range of accessories including underwear and hair bits and pieces. read more
