  Always a great place to shop or just a nice day out with friends who like to shop too. Great choice of cafes or coffee shops

  Amazing service at the East Midlands store!I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Millie Hall and her colleague at the East Midlands store. They were absolutely amazing! Millie went above and beyond to help me and is a true credit to the team. She is such an asset to Barbour and to all of the customers who walk through the door. Thank you so much for the fantastic experience! 😊

  The only reason I visited is that it has a Tesla charging station. The shops are your usual run of the mill variety but it does have a food court. No bars or restaurants so nothing to do in the evening.

  There are some good bargains to be had there, and some not so cheap stuff as well. Ample parking and decent food outlets. All the shops are under a covered walkway, which was handy today. The public toilets are well maintained and clean. Not a bad day out for shopping.

  Designer Outlet East Midlands is a really enjoyable shopping destination if you like a mix of branded stores and a relaxed day out. 🛍️✨ It may not be as massive as Cheshire Oaks, but it still has a strong range of well-known brands that can easily pull you in for more than you planned. From fashion to footwear and lifestyle stores, there’s enough variety to keep you browsing for hours without feeling like you’ve seen everything in one quick loop. We tried to cover most of the outlets during our visit but deliberately left a few for next time which honestly feels like a good excuse to come back again. 😊 It’s one of those places where you don’t feel rushed, and you can actually enjoy the experience instead of just ticking stores off a list. The visit was even more special because it was my wife’s birthday shopping trip 🎂💐 and she genuinely had a great time exploring the stores and picking out things she liked. That kind of relaxed, happy atmosphere makes a big difference to the whole day. Parking is another big plus 🚗 there’s plenty of space, and finding a spot was quick and stress-free, which already sets a positive tone before you even start shopping. When you need a break, the food court comes in really handy 🍔☕. It’s a nice place to sit down, recharge, and get your energy back before heading out for another round of shopping. Overall, it’s a place we’d happily return to again 👍 easy to spend a few hours, good variety of shops, and a comfortable layout that makes the whole experience enjoyable.
