Cafe Thorntons

It's about an hours run from Retford. Plenty of space both inside and in the stores to get around on our powerchairs. If you like to shop this is a good place to go. We found all the staff were very helpful. We had fish and chips at Harry Ramsdens in the food hall (would not recommend) food was very dry not nice st all.

A small designer outlet with a limited number of stores that can be quickly explored. I particularly love the Le Creuset outlet here, where I can always find my favorite items at a more affordable price, and the staff provides excellent service. At this outlet, it's possible to purchase branded skincare products at a lower price compared to retail shops, and there's no need to worry about buying counterfeit goods. There are also restaurants here, and every visit gives me a sense of traveling (since I always make sure to visit this group's outlets when I go to Japan). Overall, I am satisfied and will definitely come back.

**Review: Designer Outlet East Midlands** Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Designer Outlet East Midlands offers a refreshing blend of upscale shopping and leisurely strolling. The layout is expansive and well-designed, inviting visitors to meander through its myriad of branded stores. While the brands and collections on display are enticing and cater to a range of tastes, I often find myself more inclined to window shop than actually making a purchase. The ambiance is one of its strong points. Whether you're a serious shopper or just looking for a place to wander, the outlet provides a pleasant backdrop for both. The wide pathways, coupled with the architectural design, lend a sense of openness, making even peak hours feel less congested. Although I may leave more times than not with empty hands, the experience of exploring and the occasional indulgence in window shopping is worth the visit. It's an ideal spot for those who appreciate the allure of designer brands but also enjoy the simple pleasure of a leisurely walk amidst chic surroundings. In conclusion, Designer Outlet East Midlands gets a commendable four stars. It seamlessly melds the world of high fashion with the casual air of a shopping stroll, making it a destination worthy of revisits, even if it's just for the ambience.

Location Spot on Right next to M1 and than A38 towards Mansfield side. Comes to outlet shops to be honest regular shopping I think mostly people do it from NIKE M&S and ADIDAS. People mights used others as well but what I have experienced I am giving you my review. In Food court not plenty options as they have only pure English food. Plenty of Parking spaces available including Disabled and drivers with Children. Overall it’s not bad place to visit but they should expand the shops

A nice designer outlet retail park that is dog friendly, is clean, has a large car park and is very modern and decorated well. The park has toilets, multiple restaurants and some nice shops which offer some great discounts and prices. The shops that particularly were great were the Nike store and the Haribo store, all of which had some large discounts off the usual prices. I wish there was a few more shops here, but apart from that enjoyed my time here.

East Midlands designer outlet. We drove from meadowhall to here to find a good bargain. The place is nice it’s look like new just a year or two just guessing. I observed that there’s some buildings still under construction. There’s a lot of parking spaces and shops they have M&S and more. They have food court. Toilets are clean. We didn’t stayed long as we’re on our way back to London. But diffidently I’m going back here probably more shops open by then. By the way the parking is free.

I really like this place. It is a nice place to stay and very clean. What I like most is that it is a friendly dog. This is the first time I can bring my dog inside the shop and I can buy nothing to worry about my dog leaving him outside. I enjoyed it so much as my dog enjoyed it. Also the staff are very friendly. There are too many sales and offers. Definitely I am coming back. There's a big car park and it's free.
