Clacton Shopping Village

Pleasant experience, shops well laid out around a square, plenty of seating, 4 eating outlets. Was rather disappointed how small it is. I came many years ago - at least 15 & I'm sure it was bigger with more specialist shops as well as a lot of chain stores. I know some of the bigger ones no longer exist, but before it was worth making a 60 mile trip both ways specially to go. Now if I had made a special trip, even of 10 miles, I wouldn't have felt it worth the journey. Some if the shops ie Claire's Accessories, The Works & Home Bargains seemed just the same as the High Street version, with no discounts or outlet. M&S rather disappointing too, not very big, with very few outlet items.

Great shopping village with a variety of shops. The M&S outlet is brilliant and we managed to grab a few bargains - there is also a great clothing store here with a wide variety and good sales, looks like ex-stock from other businesses, but at a great price. Recommend a visit

Clacton Shopping Village has a good range of stores including, M&S, Home Bargains, Pavers, Card Factory and Greggs. There is loads of parking and the layout of the shops makes it easy to find the ones you want to visit. For us this is all just 10 minutes in the car, but worth a visit as part of your day out in Clacton if you come from further afield.

A nice selection of shops, with pretty much something for everyone. Not that large, but still worth the visit.
Easy to find with plenty of parking.

Shopping at M&S, Choice, Home Bargains and The Works was great!
We thought we’d grab a bite to eat at Heavenly Coffee and Cake - bit of an expensive mistake!! They got the order wrong, didn’t know what things came with and in-cafe music was good: Adele’s first album, but too loud and it was difficult to have a conversation with someone across the table to me! It’s good… but it’s not right!

A great little gem of a shopping spot. Bargains at M&S outlet, B&M for everything else.
Wonderful Denby store, good mix of shops for, sports wear and outdoor clothing , perfume, furniture, then much more, grab a coffee from Costa and a hot snack from Gregs to refuel. Popup Christmas store for the next few weeks.
Lots of safe parking and a regular bus route with a bus stop located in the parking area on other side of the road.

Went to Heavenly coffee & cakes at 4:20pm today for a drink and cake, as advertised open until 6pm. They said take away only and when asked why, they said it will take them that long to clean up and shut everything down! Never known a coffee shop before to refuse customers almost 2 hours before closing due to cleaning.

Good place to go shopping I love coming here for a walk around and some lunch at Costa or Greggs, or even subway. Toilets are always clean when I visit.
