Valley Retail Park - Croydon

Great for food but no shops for women. It was great when Outfit was there. A Zara or h and M would be fantastic. We went there for Wingstop

Valley Retail Park is a well-organised and easily accessible shopping destination that offers a straightforward and enjoyable retail experience. I recently stopped by to pick up some flowers for the garden, and as on previous visits, I found everything laid out in a logical and intuitive way. It’s not the kind of place where you’ll waste time wandering in confusion – the clear signage and sensible layout mean you can find what you need without hassle.

The garden section in particular is well-stocked, with a good variety of plants and seasonal flowers. The staff were polite and available when needed, though I didn’t require much assistance this time. It's also worth mentioning that this is not my first visit to Valley Retail Park – I’ve come here several times over the past couple of years, and it consistently delivers a smooth shopping experience.

Parking is ample and conveniently located near the entrances to major shops, which is a huge plus when you're picking up bulkier items like garden supplies. In addition to gardening needs, the retail park offers a solid mix of household, fashion, and electronics stores, making it a good one-stop location for a range of errands.

While it’s not the most glamorous shopping centre, Valley Retail Park excels in practicality and efficiency. You come here with a purpose, and you’re likely to leave with everything you need – no unnecessary stress, no crowds. Whether you're after a few DIY bits, new clothes, or just like me, some plants for the garden, it’s a dependable place to shop. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and want a no-nonsense retail experience.

Huge store. Plenty of selections on offer. Some staff helpful. Some not so helpful. Plenty of parking. No customer loos. Fast food outlet and ice cream van outside. McDonalds and Burger King just down the road if you prefer.

We went bowling at Tenpin, which is a great place to take youngsters in the holidays. They provide alternative entertainment if the kids don't want to bowl. They also provide food and drinks for both young and old. My only criticism was the noise volume. This couldn't be helped because I went on a bank holiday and the place was crowded. All in all we had a lovely time

Valley park has a good section of shops all in one place. From sports shops to furnishings if you are hungry a few restaurants are around. plenty of parking and if you need the toilet, a few of the shops have them in the store. Can get very busy from time to time. Worth visit.

Good shops but parking can be fiddly on busy days. In recent years it seems a lot busier than before. Only reviewing as review request from google popped up. The Google questions that popped up for me to answer relating to park and store are just ridiculous. I don't even understand what most of these mean because it is US English and not priority items. And also if you had to look online for that info you'd simply check the store's website. I'm not answering any more of these nonsense questions unless they simply relating to parking or access.
