A big very, busy shopping centre in South Manchester. It has a huge food court (more like a ship haha) and lots of stuff to do, in addition to shopping. I would only go once every several months because it's a very crowded place & can be too overwhelming. Avoid going on half term & Xmas period.

It's always worth a visit, but it's always busy. Expect to be dodging people the whole time, and you can be prepared.The pushchair/stroller/kids-cars rental is great if you expect to spend 4+ hours, but they are a little big for some of the stores. You do have to return them before they close and to the same location as pickup, so factor that in amd you'll be fine.Lots of stores, lots of food. A good day out

More than just a shopping centre, this place is a whole experience! I've been here several times and always found it an enjoyable, if often hectic, day out. I love the flamboyant architecture with its ceiling frescoes, classical statues, spectacular water features, profusion of palms, and an ornate glass lift beneath the dome. There are three large stores - John Lewis, Selfridge's and a new M&S in the former Debenhams - along with many big high street names such as H&M, Next, Boots, Waterstones and New Look, and lots of smaller high-end fashion boutiques, jewellers, perfumeries and homeware shops. There's something to suit all tastes and pockets. I've always found the malls spotlessly clean and tidy, and they're also very accessible, with lifts and escalators between the two levels. There are cookie and ice-cream stands, juice bars, plenty of seating, and well-kept toilets throughout the centre. The spacious food court, resembling the deck of a cruise ship (with a "sky" that changes colour throughout the day), is surrounded by a wide variety of fast food outlets, and there are good restaurants and eateries of all nationalities, from Thai and Mexican to Italian, Greek and American, in imaginative themed zones. I try a different one for lunch each time I visit. There's a cinema, bowling alley, amusement arcade, sealife centre and Lego exhibition. Loads of free car parking, with disabled spaces and EV charge points, and a Metrolink tram service between the TC and Manchester, with trams every 12 minutes. There's enough shopping, dining and entertainment here to fill several days. I love this place and will keep coming back!

This place is just so beautiful and lively. It has everything under one roof. If you're visiting for the first time, make sure you have at least 2-3 hours even if it's a window shopping spree. All the biggest brands, the best and massive food court, it's the best in town. A perfect place not only for shopping but also if you wanna celebrate your special day like birthday or an anniversary as there are a lot of options to choose from right from gifting, to which cuisine one should dine in for. Have fun. Make sure to visit the Trafford Palazzo too.

I was at the Trafford Center on Tuesday and Thursday. It's a very nice modern shopping center just outside Manchester. You can reach it by tram from Manchester City. You have to change at Deansgate for the tram to Trafford Centre. I think the shopping center is very modern and beautiful. It is very large and there are many shops and also various restaurants. If you are in Manchester, you should definitely go there. There is even free parking.

We went to The Trafford Centre by red line tram from Deansgate. Within 15 minutes.There are many shops with a huge foodcourt. Talking about shops, not really interesting in terms of value buy. No big brands are here. The only few known brands are some clothing like Zara, H&M, Selfridge, John Lewis, Boots etc.The foodcourt, The Orient, surrounded by a round shape of food stalls, with centre stage are all the seats. Please note that this is a self cleaned table food court.I wouldn't spend time again to come here for shopping. I would rather focus on city centre.

Busy as always, but the Christmas lights and stores are always fun. Has some good food places a nice selection but not the type of places you?d crave for. It?s good all round, for family, for shopping, for games, food or if you want to watch a movie.

The Trafford Centre Manchester was built in 1998, and has over 200 shops and restaurants,It's located just outside of Manchester city centre, so relatively easy to get to.They have a giant dining hall, which has restaurants to dine in, as well as quick service restaurants to grab and go.Chances are if you go you will end up coming away with buying something;)There's a fair outside the great mall (centre entrance) which is quite busy.Plenty of parking, however parking will be a but of an issue when it's a holiday/sales are going on. (We visited te 27th Dec, and it took 30min+ to find parking - obviously this is an exception, but be wsrned)After getting parking, then you can easily spend a good few hours there.Primary has a giant super store, as does M&S, and other stores, such as JD, Next etc (there are a few flagship stores here as well)

Trafford centre manchester is awesome especially around christmas time with all the lights & decorations. The whole scenery & architecture is beautiful. A fun day out for shopping all year round too. Going shopping there is a really exciting & fascinating experience. You have so many shops & big brands to choose from. Lots of places to have a meal & have tea or coffee in the food court. Definitly a brilliant day out for all the family & lots of bargains to be found too. Its one of the best places to shop in manchester

The greatest mall I visited in Uk , it is huge and has all my favorite shopping destinations and lots of dinning options.Also there are many entertainment destinations within the mall like Cinema, Lego and sea life and much more.They always also hold many special events and installations throughout the year. I last visited during this festive season and the whole mall looked magical with all the decorations and lights. Bathrooms are always clean and tidy which is a major plus point!

A must go in Manchester for a day out! Has so many choices for shopping, from branded to non branded shops, lots of eateries, lifestyle shops, perfumes- an area where kids can enjoy and lots of parking outside. Good for a whole day out, but go after payday ?

The Trafford Centre in Manchester is an absolute gem for shopping, dining, and entertainment. The vast selection of stores, delightful eateries, and diverse entertainment options make it a one-stop destination. The architectural beauty and spacious layout enhance the shopping experience. However, during peak times, it can get quite busy, affecting parking and crowds. Overall, it's a must-visit for anyone seeking a varied and vibrant shopping experience in the heart of Manchester.

Stunning shopping centre and really a marvel for the eyes. It was my first time and the variety and effort that is present in the architecture is astounding. Such a beautiful experience and leaves such a positive impression on the city.
