Cabot Circus Shopping Centre (Bristol) Reviews

Coming from a small town I was thrilled to move to Bristol and reach my full shopping potential! There are many great areas in Bristol to go shopping but I have to say that Cabot Circus is my favourite as it has something for everyone and lots for me! It's a new centre built using wood, metal and glass so it looks really fresh ...  Read the complete review

Hi, my name is Ruth, and I'm a shopaholic. Well, that maybe a bit extreme, but I am a massive fan of shopping and spend time quite regularly in and out of clothes, beauty, bric-a-brac and food shops. I recently moved to Bristol for University and now get to regularly experience the joy of shopping that is Cabot Circuc. Cabot ...  Read the complete review

Until late 2008, Bristol really struggled in the shopping stakes. Having lived there for several years, when I then used to come back and see friends from time to time, it was an even bigger shock to the system to remind myself just how badly shoppers were catered for in Bristol. Years earlier, an out of town development at Cribbs ...  Read the complete review

My local 'town shopping' is pretty pants to be honest and I much prefer to take a short trip up to Bristol. I usually go to the mall, but since Cabot Circus has opened I haven't really been to the mall! Cabot Circus is basically a new(ish) shopping centre in the middle of Bristol, near / in Boradmead. Unlike the mall it ...  Read the complete review

So Cabot Circus has just celebrated its 1st Birthday and its better now than it ever has been. The amazing architechture is starting to fit into the centre better with the surrounding areas having had a makeover. Although some stores have closed down, a couple due to the recession and a couple just because the stores havent been ...  Read the complete review

Shops: A wide range of shops including some more 'high end' and designer shops [including Harvey Nicholls] as well as the more usual clothes shops, gadget ...  Read the complete review

Cabot circus is definitely impressive. A pedestrianised area all under glass rooves and bridges. The ground floor is mainly clothes shops while the top two floors being mainly restraunts, cafes and entertainment places (cinema, minigolf). The shops consist of well known high street brands and a few upmarket jewellery and accessory shops. ...  Read the complete review

I am Bristol born and bred and live within a 10 minute drive of Cabot Circus shopping centre but I am not yet convinced or impressed by it. Previous to building Cabot Circus, bristols shopping areas consisted of the galleries and broadmead area which housed the usual high street names such as debenhams, house of frazer, ...  Read the complete review

Cabot Circus is a pretty impressive building and is good fun to wander around. It is a major development for the centre of Bristol and it has changed the face of the previously shabby shopping area. There are lots of major designer shops to choose from and lots of places to eat. As you enter the city on the M32, Cabot circus and ...  Read the complete review

I was so excited to have Cabot Circus being developed in my home town. While Bristol was already quite good for shopping, I felt that it was getting a bit tired. Well, my excitement was definately worth while. Cabot Circus is great. It's got some great shops, admittedly some that I can only dream about being able to buy ...  Read the complete review

I got back from the wondeful Cabot Circus about one hour ago, and I have got to say, I was majorly impressed by the sheer scale and magnificence of the whole place. The indoor/outdoor (not sure what to call it really, it's just a giant place with hoods over it in some places!) shopping centre is linked to the nicely laid out ...  Read the complete review

After living in Bristol as an actual building site, stunted traffic and anticipation for god knows how long... The arrival of le cirque cabôt! - was it worth the wait? Well its very swanky and posh looking and has a strange mixture of indoor and outdoor in fact I still haven't worked out which it is. I guess it's kind of a semi heated ...  Read the complete review

Being a student in Bristol, having a place like Cabbot Circus nearby is a great advantage. The place is new and modern, and boasts a wide range of shops and serivces, for all groups of people, from pensioners to students. A stone throw away from the happening area of Bristol City centre, whether you want to go and watch a new ...  Read the complete review

The first thing that strikes you about Cabot Circus is its stupid name. Shame on the people that used the word 'Circus' to describe a shopping centre. How would the Moscow State Circus feel if they were renamed 'The Moscow State Shopping Centre'? You can see my point. The first time I walked into Cabot Circus I was blown away ...  Read the complete review

If you live in the South West/West of England there's a good chance you've heard of Cabot Circus, the latest all singing, all dancing shopping centre which opened just in time for the Xmas rush towards the end of 2008. *Where is it?* Cabot Circus is located close to the end of the M32 which is linked to the M5 and M4. ...  Read the complete review

I came here about 4 weeks after it opened, after hearing about it on the news & radio. As i pulled into the new multi-story car park i was impressed by the amount of parking spaces, and even more so because there are so many parent & disabled parking, in most car parks there are never enough parent / baby & disabled ...  Read the complete review

Since Cabot circus opened I have been there almost religiously every weekend. I'm not sure if this is because I need things or because I just like the atmosphere. The centre is almost totally covered by a vast glass roof. This doesn't only look great but protects you from the elements and seems to have ridden of the pigeons ...  Read the complete review

Cabot Circus opened in Bristol in September 2008 amidst much media hype, having been ten years in the making, but does it live up to the hype? -Location- Cabot Circus is located just off the M32, which is adjoined to the M5 North and South and the M4, so it's reasonably easy to get to by car. The car park is literally ...  Read the complete review
