The staff here are very chatty and helpfull, make you feel like you can just walk round and look and not have staff on your case. The shop looks very colourful and good selection in different colours and all set out very well. I brought four items and just came under £13.00 and this is for my holiday, and includes 2 tops and 2 bottoms. It is well worth the money. Lets hope that this shop does not close down.

Ah The Galleria, a staple of my miss-spent youth. The shops here are average to pretty rubbish…read more(though they do have a massive Waterstones) and you'll only get one or two of the big name high street places. I never really went shopping here because, while it has a fair number of shops, it never really has anything that you want or need. Guess that could be just me. The cinema is where I spent most of my days, chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool and watching some films after school. The cinema is average price with student discount and with your standard of sugary rubbish to enjoy while watching a film. The cinema screens themselves are good, the Digital screen is awesome, but the chairs and leg room leave something to be desired. It can get quite uncomfortable if you're a tall and are in a packed screening, but this rarely happens here, which is a other bonus. All in all a good place to while a way a fair number of hours with friends or that special someone.

I had seen the Galleria so many times from the road, passing under it, and been curious. Was really…read morelooking forward to visiting it but it is a souless place. Although it looks huge it takes hardly any time to go around and has nothing to recommend it in the way of differnt shops. They are the same as any high street. A large open area in the centre was laid out as a furniture vendoes. The stuff was ugly..even tasteless..and overpriced. Quite a few restaurants..untried but mostly the usual chains. The only saving grace, for me, was a pleasant cinema complex where we went to see Stardust. So much anticipation..such a disappointment.

There is all the basic stuff like cheap dishes, ugly keychains..everything you would expect. What is interesting about this place is that there is an Internet cafe upstairs. I found this rather interesting ,catering to the Pound shop market so much. A good idea, all around. One really good bit I almost missed...this shop has a pretty small soap section but they have Schwarzkopf mousse for 1 pound. I use it for the front of my hair.

Founded in 1993 by myself and (at the time) very scarce amount of volunteers. The Peace Hospice…read moreShop formerly SW Herts Peace Hospice is one of the many ways that the Hospice raises money in order to give the in/out patient care free of charge to the patients and their families. It has been my pleasure and misfortune to know many patients over the years of the Hospice, and now have family in their inpatient unit. I cannot believe in 20 years this store is flourishing with great items donated by the people of Radlett and the surrounding areas. In the last 14 years of my departure from England the Hospice shop and the volunteers (some I still remember fondly) who are still there run the store as cleanly and pleasantly as the legacy we worked hard to bring. This is not your average charity shop. Featured in an early episode of Little Britain this is a must for anyone visiting Radlett if you can brave the parking.

Perfect for basic things like shampoo and conditioner, they do some of the more expensive brands for much less than it's competitors (Boots/Superdrug- I picked up some John Frieda conditioner for 5 quid less than the same product at Boots) It's truly a jungle of inexpensive goodies and i'd definitely recommend going here for gifts- they have bath and beauty sets on offer and lots of perfume that looks far more expensive than it is. The staff were really helpful and friendly and had a really human quality about them- YES we actually had a real conversation (maybe a normal thing outside of London but still took me off guard). Our cashier was mega-efficient and really knew about the products he was selling as well as their place in the store. A cheap lovely version of Heaven for bargain-hunters!

This store sells discounted NEXT clothes, normally out of season or ex sale items…read more Unfortunately what is on offer is a bit hit and miss and does require some rummaging and can be quite limited. You can't really go there with a certain product in mind as you would come away disappointed. If you go with an open mind and are happy to look for bargains then this would be OK. Unfortunately the store doesn't have any changing rooms and there are signs up asking you not to try on clothes in the middle of the store. The other negative point is that they don't give monetary refunds if you return things that don't fit and you are given a credit note instead.

You can either pay cash at the check out counter or in the self checkout basket section which might be 3, 4 or 5 tiles. This changes all the time - apparently the tiles have 'problems' according to one of the staff. Customers are being asked to use the self scan service which works well if you pay by card. If you pay cash then you must queue - WHY. The customer is already doing everything and gets penalised because they pay cash. TESCO wake up to the real world, not everyone has a card !!!!!

They hold alot of instruments all of which are well presented instore. The staff are very knowledgable and willing to help with both beginner and professional musicians alike. I would say that the price of stock is reasonable but by no means cheap. You're likely to find a better deal online but I would highly recommend popping down and speaking to an advisor - you really should have it in hand before you buy any instrument. Recommended.

You can find everything from brilliant pies (Raven's Den in particular), awesome cheese (Lincolnshire Poacher and others), fresh veggies (Earthworks and others), fresh fish and meats... not to mention cupcakes and other sweet treats! We usually start by getting a coffee for the husband from the vendor with the mobile coffee bar (the machine is in the back of his van), and then wander the markets and end at the Merchant for a cup of tea for me. As long as there is a rainbow biscuit on the way even our toddler is happy.

I loved that everything was put in paper bags, not plastic. I read that the market has been around since the 9th century, which I loved knowing. A short walk down the hill brings you to beautiful neighborhoods with cobblestone roads and the huge cathedral. It's a lovely area overall.

To me, there's nothing like wandering the aisles of bright shiny department stores and spending lots of money on things I don't really need. Sadly, there are no Targets or Walmarts here, so I had to find another place to relieve the spending itch. This ginormous Tesco is perfect for that. Aisles and aisles of goodies to peruse. Lately I've really been enjoying their selection of Easter candy. The store is mainly a grocery store, though they do have clothing, electronics, household items, etc. I drag my husband here once a week for grocery shopping and am always impressed with how low the prices are. This place is always a madhouse, which I guess can be expected at one of the largest Tesco stores in existence. But it sure does make me feel at home!
