Review of Primark Stores
10 May 08, 13:22
Not like a jumble sale 
I love Primark and regularly go to 3 - this one, Coventry and Birmingham. Not surprisingly this is the smallest of the three, but for me the best. It is never overcrowded or messy (unlike Birmingham which is madness). If they were all like this it would be bliss

Review of Wheatcroft
28 Apr 08, 19:30
Special all year round 
...but extra special at Christmas. Wheatcrofts have great gifts and decorations as well as the usual garden stuff. The stock seems to turn quicker than at some places too, so good to go browsing at the weekend

Review of Cafe Nero

Start the day bright 
Very friendly staff at this coffee house chain. Always busy, but they always have time for you. They have papers and some pretty good background music, so all in all a pretty good place to while away an hour or so

Review of Virgin Active

Good faciliities....but 
This gym has everything you'd ever need...except for care for it's customers. When I cancelled my membership over a year ago now it was just about to get a new manager so I would still say give it a go. Let's hope the people now live up to the facilities

Review of Hobbycraft
20 Apr 08, 19:52
Standard fayre 
Maybe I'm being harsh because this chain store caters for loads of different hobbies and I have just one - card making and I find it pretty limited and quite expensive. The stock also doesn't seem to turn that often either. It would be nice to see examples of work on display and workshops happening in store. Maybe they do run workshops, but if they do I've never seen them advertised. Just could be more imaginative I think

Review of Jean Station

School Uniforms for Rugby Schools 
I don't think there are any Rugby school uniforms you can't get upstairs at the Jean station. They sell everything from badges and tie to plain black trousers and blazers. The other stock is standard jeans and tshirts, which they seem to have regular sales on

Review of Etcetera
20 Apr 08, 17:02
You won't be able to resist 
Great baby gifts, quirky cards, unusual jewellery, the only stockist of Radley bags in Rugby....what else can I tell you. The only problem is that whenever I go here to buy a present for someone else, I always end up with a little something for myself too!

Review of Pink
20 Apr 08, 17:00
This shop is now sadly closed 
Just in case it's just about to reopen in another location I thought I'd let you know that it had some great interesting gifts that you wouldn't find anywhere else. A real shame if it is closed for good.

Review of Abraxas Cook Shop
20 Apr 08, 16:57
Bliss for kitchenalia freaks! 
Everything you could possible want for your kitchen. Great choice with some really unusual things and designs. I particular like bright silicone spoons etc and if you do too, you won't be disappointed. Probably also the only place in Rugby to get Le Creuset..

Review of Old Smithy
20 Apr 08, 16:54
Great pub food 
The Old Smithy is simply great for food. The menu is particularly good for carnivores and even sports a drawing of a cow so you can see which cut comes from what bit! The fajitas are as good as you'd get at a specialist Tex Mex place and the steak and ale pie is just heaven on a plate!
