House Of Fraser

There’s a very wide variety of designer (and/or expensive) shops all under one roof. While there are some bargains to be had, it’s cumbersome to have to check each of the separate designer areas to check them out.
For example, if you are looking for a blouse, there is no section of blouses; one has to go through all the different little “shops” to get an overview.

Good items and variety available…but not affordable… quite expensive though quality is good…

Pros House of Fraser is situated in a great location in Reading’s Oracle shopping centre, next to the Riverside. The store is laid out over three levels and is huge- it stocks a wide range of goods, from clothes to homewares, and even has a Yo! Sushi on site. The goods are good quality, on average better than in comparable stores like Debenhams and John Lewis, and there are quite a few designer names. I have always found it easy to find sales assistants, and found them polite and courteous.

Cons Because House of Fraser stocks quality brands, you do end up paying more. I tend to go during the sales when you can end up finding some great bargains.

House of Fraser at the Oracle Reading has the best quality of all department stores in Reading IMO.
The designer clothes selection is the best of any shop in Reading.
The store is huge as you might expect.
Home department on the ground floor has everything. the furniture is beautiful. there is a cafe and a newly opened Yo Sushi! diner.
great shopping experience…if you can afford it.
