ABOUT

From its opening in 1991, West Orchards has been at the heart of the city centre shopping, offering a wide choice of retail outlets with major high street names as well as independent outlets. With a 563 space car park, over 40 retail outlets and their new food destination, CANTEEN, with public toilets, baby change/breast feeding and disabled facilities on level 2. We have ATM machines located on the ground floor, it is easy to see why the centre is such a success.

Open 7 days a week with extended hours at Christmas, West Orchards is the one stop shopping experience.

Accessible Shopping

There is flat level access with automatic doors from Iron Monger Row and Smithford Way. There is also flat level access from all car park levels with automatic doors, in the Blue and Yellow corners. Inside the centre, there are two main lifts in the atrium, from ground floor to level 5, and a lift located near Footasylum to gain access to The Link Mall.

We are happy to say you can pick up a free sunflower lanyard from Auntie Annes on Level 1.

These lanyards are to be used to help our shoppers who have a hidden disability. Who may need a bit of extra support whilst shopping.
By wearing your lanyard we wont know your individual disability- but just tell us what you need, whether that be extra time at checkout or help packing your bags. We want to help you have the best possible experience whilst shopping with us here at West Orchards.
We are here to help, just ask.
