W H Smith, Grays

Average WH Smiths store in Lakeside shopping centre. Stocks books, stationary, magazines, DVDs, CDs, chocolate, sweets, gifts, art supplies and more.

I find that WH Smiths doens’t have such a wide range of books available as Waterstones or Borders (there are branches of these in Lakeside or on the retail park). The stationary and art supplies tend to be quite expensive but there is a large range and they stock some beautiful photo albums and craft items.

This has always been the traditional store to visit for back to school stationary and supplies!

This is one of the many stores in lakeside shopping centre.It has 2 floors to it and has everything you would expect to find in any branch of w h smiths. You can buy lottery tickets here as well. They have some fantastic book signings here and these include the likes of Westlife. It is pretty much the same as any other WH Smith in that it sells the same but the customer service is great here and it never gets too busy so cues are low. A good W H Smith.
