    I called in this branch of Marks and Spencer while in Stoke on-Trent, and considering it hasn't…read morebeen reviewed on Yelp in way over 8 years, infact it hasn't been reviewed on Yelp at all with the last review for this place being written on Qype, once is definitley needed. I called in here for a quick walk around and to pick up some Hand Sanitiser and to look at the gluten free sandwiches, while doing some work in Stoke ahead of the By-election. This store is located in the city centre of Hanley, one of 6 towns in Stoke On-Trent including Stoke, Hanley, Burslem, Fenton, Tunstall and Longton. As I recall this is one of two stores in the city and the oldest. The store is a decent size, but does seem a little old-fashioned at times and left our when it comes to being refurbished and modernised especially when comparing to other branches such as those in Manchester and Birmingham to name a few. The staff seemed quite nice, and I was pleased to pick up two bottles of 50ml Hand Sanitiser for £1.50, which was a saving of 50p across the two bottles. The range for gluten free was satisfactory, although much poorer than other stores such as Manchester. Overall, this store is okay and a nice brand to have in Hanley, but still the store lacks the feel that other branches have, so sadly seems slightly poorer hence warrants just two stars.

    This is a big Marks and Spencer store. It has pretty much everything women's and men's clothes,…read moreunderwear, home stuff, food, kid's stuff and a cafe/restaurant. It is over three floors all easily accessible by escalator or lift. It is laid out really well with a walkway straight through the middle with plenty of space. This is good because the store has a multi-storey car park, and is popular with shoppers in general, not just Marks and Spencer customers. The large gangway means the foot traffic from cars to the shops moves well. The store as a large food section and has pretty much all a supermarket should offer only it's pretty posh and pretty pricey. However, if you do a big food shop you are able to collect your shopping from a car pick up point which is more convenient than battling the multi-storey with your trolley. The car park is a pay on foot and is well laid out, but there are only three pay machines spread out across the levels so if you leave at peak times prepare for a massive queue.

    The Potteries Centre is the main shopping centre in Stoke-On-Trent. It was formerly known as Intu…read morePotteries until the parent company went into administration. The mall feels like it has so much potential, but that potential is wasted. There's such a large number of empty units now, and this is shown in "The Hive" with a row of closed restaurants which look like they've been empty for years - right next to Nando's and the Cineworld cinema. There's also a large amount of space in the mall which seems unused, including the pretty balcony, which just should be bustling. The staff around the mall were friendly, and they did try their best to offer assistance, although their knowledge of the local area could have been better as they struggled to recommend a supermarket nearby where I could buy essentials, including milk, to take back to my hotel. There's a small number of stores located here, nothing too exciting but certainly OK for a smaller city. Ann Summer, HMV, JD Sports New Look, Superdrug, Quiz and WHSmith have locations here, including all of the major mobile phone networks. The mall closes at 6 pm between Monday and Saturday, too, which does feel too early for a city. 2* - It feels that other than the rebrand, the mall hasn't changed for the better in years, and it's just depressing and declining.

    It's not bad but for a smaller city, but missing most of the bigger brands you'd expect to see in…read moresomewhere like Westfield or Trafford centre, such as h & m, and berksha. There's a few cafes to eat, which are ok, nothing standoutish. I think the recent addition of The Hive - which has lots of new restaurants and a cinema - will be the start of the potteries getting better. All in all, it's ok for a weekend shop, but if you're looking to splash the cash, head to one of the bigger cities.
