Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 22 January 2009

A family run long standing department store in central norwich. Perfect lay out with great cosmetics rang on the first floor, ground floor toilets and china and coffee house. Book selection well kept and ample staff to assist you. Sales are very good in this store and I always manage to get gifts for loved ones in here. Everything you need under the 1 roof excellent.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 19 November 2008

In my opinion this is one of the best department stores in Norwich, It is really large and goes over 4 floors. They sell everything you could imagine, even some strange items that you may not find in other shops which adds to it’s oldie worldy atmosphere, if you know what I mean.
They have an excellent toy department, based on the 4th floor and a great arts/crafts department. The toys are however a little expensive, but you will pick up some unique purchases. The ladies clothing department is quite extensive and includes designer brands. They do however offer some great bargains if you are quick in the sales.
The is also a cafe on the top floor, which offers a range of hot and cold snacks. Also there is a smaller cafe in the basement.
The staff are smart and professional and are really helpful and well trained in customer service, which is good to see.
A deffinate for a browse and a coffee.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 19 November 2008

As far as I’m aware this is the only independent department store in Norwich.

Sells a whole range of items, from books, to shoes, to arts & crafts. Also contains the only MAC make up counter in Norwich.

Some items can be a little pricey, but you get what you pay for as everything they sell is good quality.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 19 November 2008

Jarrolds could only be a more traditional department store if John Inman and Molly Sugden popped up over the perfume counter. But that’s what makes it great. Jarrolds is a Norwich institution and you’ll find a great spread of brands and departments inside. the new Mac (make up, not computers) store add on is great, as is their sports shop just across the street.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 18 November 2008

This is Norwich’s flagship store. I love roaming round it, expecially at Christmas, and searching for goodies. It’s a general department store in the heart of Norwich. They stock clothes, books, gifts etc. and there is the stationers nearby for the more specialist things you are looking for. Typical for Norwich, the staff are friendly, helpful and seem proud of where they work and what they represent - a fantastic British city.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 16 November 2008

Jarralds is a real throwback to the department stores of old. Just about anything one could ever need can be found under one roof, all laid out and displayed in a manner that is refreshingly unique. You’d never mistake the interior for a Ikea or the like. Prices tend to be a bit steep, but the sheer variety of products, from clothing to toys, more then makes up for it. Personal favorites are the deli in the basement and the cafe on the top floor.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 15 November 2008

A great department store, the pride of the city.

Famous for their Xmas window displays that glisten and sparkly with anamatronic animals.

Their lower level and main entrance leads you in to the hub for cosmetics. It’s a bit overpowering with all the scents in the air.

There’s an interesting fish tank on display with tropical fish swimming sponsored by one of these companies.

When you have battle through the invisible fragrant mist you will come across the books and magazine section.

They have a hairdressers inside as well as a great art section on the top level.

I’ve got some really happy memories of the toy department as a child.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 15 November 2008

A “proper” department store right in the centre of Norwich. Jarrolds is a family store retaining its independence which in itself deserves your custom! Downstairs in the basement you will find a fantastic deli, quality home wares, cooking equipment, gifts from branded houses such as Wedgewood, Royal Doulton and the like. Other floors offer shoes, clothes including Windsmoor, The White Stuff, and a bridal department, books books and more books, perfumes, MAC cosmetics, furniture…....the list goes on!

Right at the top is one of the best toy departments in Norwich - perfect for Christmas shopping!

Staff here are well trained and friendly - The Jarrold Family believe in providing a service to their customers and that is something that is never lacking.

One of the few remaining independent department stores. A wide selection in an historic building, includes several restaurants and coffee shops. Has a molton brown franchise.

Review of Jarrolds Department Store from 2 October 2008

Jarrolds is a beautiful department store set across 4 floors I think. It is in a stunning building and the corner stone of shopping in the city. Selling everything from kitchen wear to stationery, books and bags it is a wonderful place to wander round and admire,

My favourite department is the art and craft department upstairs, it has everything a crafty girl might ever want or need.

A bit pricey at times, its always still worth a look! And the coffee shop is lovely.
