Advantages: Free to park, lots of shops and decent entertainment sections too. Disadvantages: Gets busy at weekends, some very expensive places to shop and eat.
NOTE : I have re-written this op almost completely as I felt I had more to add (and I'd already started it before realising I did it already - DOH)
The TraffordCentre may well be the shoppers idea of Paradise (Moose perks up her ears.) Opened in September 1998, and just a stones throw from where I was living at the time, the massive centre took shape on top of previously overgrown waste ground in Davyhulme, Manchester.
The TraffordCentre is among the largest shopping centres in Europe, but it has more to offer than just shops, as I’ll explain later.
Before I go on I’ll say two things which make me qualified to write this op, firstly I’m a shopaholic, and secondly with the centre on my doorstep for 3 years I used to go there amazingly regularly, so I know it pretty well. As a result I’ve reviewed it ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of The Trafford Centre
Advantages: Wide range of shops, plenty of places to eat, easily accessible by Public transport Disadvantages: Can get very busy, especially in the school Holidays & at Xmas

I must admit that the TC gets VERY busy in the school holidays and have recently had their fair share of 'hoodies' invading the gaming part of the Orient but there are redcoats on hand to deal with any problems and offenders such as there are told politely not to come back.
I would generally stay away in the School holidays and around Christmas and Sale time - not only does the TC get very busy but Traffic Jams build up very quickly (I'm only telling you that cause the traffic jams stop me from getting home from work on time!).
It's a great shopping experience and a good day out - you definitely do need a full day top get around all of the shops.

I have been in the TraffordcentreNando's quite a few times so thought i would share my views on the place.
The Nandos is located just inside one of the main entrances in the Orient area where all the restaurants and bars are located. It is on the ground level and is to the left hand side as you walk in. The restaurant now even has more tables outside of the main building since they refurbished the TraffordCentre to make more room and this was much needed as this place is always so busy at weekends that the queue to get a table is always long out the door. When you sometimes see the queue it can be quite off putting as it seems it will be a long wait but as the branch in the TraffordCentre is quite large there are always tables becoming available so the queue actually moves quite quickly!
The food:
