Car guards are delusional (they think they employed by the Traffic Police Department but have no basis for rules that they try to enforce). After waiting ages behind a bakkie who had a driver that had no idea where he wanted to park or which parking space he was waiting for/targeting, I tried passing him to peruse the parking for a free spot when I was rudely confronted by the bakkie driver asking where I thought I was going. After the fool couldnt understand I want to look for a parking space (like the looking-for-a-parking-spot system works everywhere in the country), I then tried to access the parking from the opposite side of the complex when the car guards stopped and harrassed me, forcing me to open my window to shout at me and insist that Im driving in a one way and that once I park, my tyres will be clamped. They insisted there is a queueing system being employed and that I must wait my turn to look for parking. When asked where the signage is indicating the use of a queueing system is or where the road signage of a one way is, I received no answers and instead harrassed further with threats of clamping my tyres. If you going to use the shops/restaurants in this building complex then use the underground parking where there are no car guards. Even though totally nonsensical, if these rules was to be enforced, the centre management must put up the necessary legal road and complex signage indicating no overtaking, one way and queueing system, etc. Or ask the car guards to stop harrassing visitors as they are not trained Traffic Police officials.

We found the Mall Security Staff and the P+P Staff very helpful and on the whole the shopping trip was pleasant. Pity that some people before us were stock piling as there were very little fresh veggies left on the shelves, which is not the norm for P+P.

Beautiful modern designed mall. Not too many shops rented out yet, potential to improve. More rental space available. Some very expensive shops, but also the good old faithful franchises available.

The Pick n Pay is to die for the set up the shopping experience and the quality of goods is just right and priced right.Fit24 gym is a wonderful stress reliever all you need after a hard days work.

Review №32

Very sad to see that landlords would rather have empty shops then lower their rentals...it could be a lovely centre if all shops were occupied..What happened to Woolworths opening that enticed other business to sign leases as this was a huge draw to the centre..

Lovely buildings and the different shops are great . How ever the open air parking is a nightmare and takes forever and it sometimes very very slow witch adds to the inconvenience. Also the lack of ATMs is a bit frustrating as access to cash and ATM serves are useful.

Review №55

Wonderful little Mall. Parking above ground can be a frustrating as there is only single lane flow and one exit, so if people pause to wait for a parking traveling a few metres can take a couple of minutes. There is plenty of below ground parking off to the right but then you have to take a lift to ground level. Pavements currently hazardous in wet weather, but this is being addressed. Friendly Pick n Pay with amiable owner and staff. Also includes One Life Church upstairs. Atmosphere should be vibrant post Covid. There are currently no ATMs in the Mall. Use the FNB at the nearby Shell Service Station.

Unfortunately, this centre, while aesthetically pleasing, is not all that functional. Its opening was delayed by many months. Confirmed tenants to the centre never materialised. There is nothing here that one cant get down the road at Cascades, or Liberty Mall.

I loved it! It is still new and a number of stores still need to open but the potential is promising. The security guards were very helpful as we did find the under cover parking a bit challenging our first time *blush* as the exit is not well sign posted for someone who hasnt been there before but like I said its still a work in progress with a lot of potential.

A Pick n Pay with a difference. Everything in the Bakery, Deli and Butchery is fresh, apertizing and well presented. The selection of fresh salads at the salad bar is my favourite. Generally friendly and helpful staff all round.

I love that I have a Pick n Pay to stop at on the way home. Parking is an issue. Never used the underground as it seems like a hassle and I refuse to pay. Not a clever design at all. Shops inside the building hardly get customers. Theres no cover, so if its raining you get wet, a lot of water on the walkway.
