Having a fiance who stays only 5 miles down the road from this shopping centre is fantastic. Its not like your typical shopping centre where parking is limited or in most cases non existant. The best part about the parking is that it is FREE all day everyday!.
Braehead is based on the outskirts of Glasgow between the Govan area and Renfrew for those who are unsure of its location.
The shopping centre itself boasts most of the high street shops such as Marks and Spencer, Boots, WH Smith, Woolworths, Sainsbury's and many more but to name a few and the centre is open late some evenings aswell(some shops within may vary closing time)
The shopping centre also has a food court located upstairs and if memory serves I believe there is a downstairs also. The food hall contains fast food places such as McDonalds, KFC, Pizza hut, a Cookie shop! (yum yum....) and a bakery shop. Located next to the bakery on the ground floor is a small circular ice rink which you may use although I am unsure of the cost of this. One of the good ideas is now parents can hire out push cars in which their child can sit in the car as they are pushed around the centre, I believe they cost a couple of pound per hour.
Outside the centre there are also some other superstores such as PC World, B&Q Warehouse and I think its a Scottish Power store and just across the road from the PC World is a large Ikea store which has 2 floors and a creche should you wish to shop without your kids harrassing you!.
Overall I would give the Shopping Centre 10/10 for its general handiness and also for its parking. I also heard rumours that Braehead is also set to expand sometime in the near future aswell as the Ikea superstore.
