great classy place to go... 
When I first heard about this place I thought it was a stationers. How wrong can you be!
It's a classy restaurant/bar that offers up something a little bit different to the usual which make it a great place to go with friends . Things like the glass floor are just a nice touch!

good night guaranteed (once you've found it...)
Every time I try and get to this place I get lost, but once you've found it you're in for a good night! They book some great acts to appear and put on special nights which are well worth popping along to as well! What I love about this place is it doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is - a damn good entertainment venue!

Review of Matalan Discount Club Cash Carry)Ltd

the 'new' Primark?
You know Matalan - the large chain store of discount clothes, some of it good, some of it not so much - well this is one of those! It's a huge warehouse of a place that you could frankly get lost in (if it weren't just a large metal square box). The staff are unhelpful and look at you blankly when you ask them a question, and for some reason you need a Matalan card to buy anything (though when they ask if you have one and you say no, they give you another one, so go figure...). That said, I've bought some good stuff from Matalan over the last few months - might it become the new Primark once more?! Hoefully not, I want it to stay my little secret!

Review of JJB Sports

poor sports store 
JJB in Poole is pretty chavtastic much like the rest of Poole, in particular the Dolphin Centre. If you live in Poole, try heading to Bournemouth for your shopping as you'll find it much nicer.
I've been to JJB in Poole a couple of times and found the service awful. It's got the same products as some of the other stores in the area but served with a grimace.

Review of JJB Sports

not as good as the town-central one... 
This JJB Sports is on an out-of-town retail park, so the whole store feels a bit like a massive warehouse. This store also sells bikes and gym equipment which the town cenre store doesn't. Sadly you can be left around waiting for a while as the staff always seem busy or reluctant to help whenever I've needed anything...
It's alright I suppose but I wouldn't go all the way out to this one if I could pick up something in town...
