Shopping

Norwich, where independent stores stand beside high street favourites

Whatever you are looking for, be it shopping for the family or friends, last minute gifts, the back to school rush or simply treating yourself to retail therapy you will find everything you need in Norwich.

The presence of major high street retailers is seen in our regional flagship stores from: John Lewis, Marks and Spencer, and Primark located around Gentleman’s Walk, Westlegate and St Stephen’s Street. With two shopping malls – Chantry Place and Castle Quarter plus small retail parks across the city.

And if that isn’t enough, there are dozens of independent shops for something different. Make sure you get around: the Norwich Lanes, the Cathedral Quarter and Magdalen Street. These areas are rich for vintage, collectables, art, fashion, lifestyle, boutiques and more. As are The Royal Arcade, Upper St Giles, Elm Hill and Timberhill. And who could forget our incredible independent department store – Jarrold.
