St Johns Precinct Mall (Shopping Centre)

St John's really cannot be missed or avoided as once you are in town it can be seen from absolutely everywhere.

Never in a million years would I have thought of doing an op on St John's precinct. But after coming across several somewhat negative reviews on the place i wouldn't be able to sleep without giving people the opportunity to read what St John's shopping centre is really all about.

<<<<LOCATION>>>>
St John's Shopping Centre is located in the heart of Liverpool, in a central location of the main shopping district in the city - familiarly referred to as "town" (even though Liverpool is a city. lol) Its official address is:
125 St George's Way
Liverpool

St John's really cannot be missed or avoided as once you are in town it can be seen from absolutely everywhere. The outside of the building is painted green (earlier episodes of brookside will show the centre in the opening themetune). If for some reason the view of the building is obstructed, by other shops for example, the Radio City tower which forms a familiar part of Liverpool's skyline, stretches out from St John's and can be seen from any part of the city and further.

<<<ACCESIBILITY>>>
It is absolutely the Easiest place to get to as virtually all public transport ends its journey in the city centre. The bus station actually faces the centre as well so you really have no choice but to walk past it when you get off the bus. All of the train lines in the area pass though Central Station which is a 2 minute walk from St Johns. and as you come out of Lime Street Station there is actually an underground walkway which leads you into St John's.

<<<<Opening Times>>>>
Monday - Saturday: 9:00-5:30 although some of the smaller shops do not open until 10:00
Sunday: 10:00-5:00
Public Holidays: 10:00-5:00
In the weeks before Christmas the shops are open for late night shopping on a Thursday until 10:00pm

<<<MY ST JOHN'S>>>
No trip to town would be complete without going to St John's. in fact, for most of my generation it is the sole purpose for making the trip to the city centre. "The precinct" as it is warmly known, thrives on the young population of the city. It's cheap clothes shops are always stocked full of the latest fashions. In fact i would gladly say that these cheap, no named shops set the fashion among the young people of the city.
When a girl says she needs to go to the precinct for something you can almost instinctively head for STORM without asking where she needs to go. There are several Storm stores in the city centre. They pave the way to the newest fashions in the city and provide them at the lowest prices to be found. for me Storm IS, the purpose of St John's. heehee. In recent years some competitor stores have come to be. these include those such as BU, Space and Smartell. It must be said that all of these shops stock near enough the same clothes but this ensures that if one shop doesn't have your size then one of the others will.

<<<DOWNSIDES>>>
The toilets are dated. they are clean and relatively well maintained but they could do with refurbishing.
The queues for the Food Court can at times be ridiculous and the space for queuing is limited and cramped.
Higher wattage bulbs wouldn't go a miss as sometimes the centre looks really dingy.
the market SMELLS OF FISH!!!!!!! enough said!!!!!!

Really though, as somebody who has lived in Liverpool all her life and has relied on the precinct for clothes for all important occasions it really is a good shopping centre.
