anyone been to East Mids designer outlet?
Visited Oatcakes & Milkshakes for lunch today after 1pm....very busy and spoke to a staff member who told us to order at the counter then they will sort tables out.
Stood in the queue to find people just walking in behind us and taking the spare tables !! Order and got a table but it took around 30 minutes for the food to come out (its only Oatcakes !!)
Food was good but by only having one chap doing the savoury food and 2-3 people doing the milkshakes and freak-shakes it took the shine off the visit...Will probably go back as a sunday brunch trip....
Last time we were there we didn't spot the sign telling us to order and pay before we'd sat down. I'm glad it's remained busy though.
We were also in town today, had lunch at the soup kitchen - generally town seemed busy, which is always good.
So good to see new shops openingBee and bean on mill street is coming along and the little dessert shop looks all set to open.
At last!
Somewhere in town where you can get a coffee

Got any more news on this wonderful scoop @cotty1974 or was it in fact ill-informed, scaremongering bullshit?Heard today primark are pulling out of Stafford due to extortionate rates of Stafford council (will they ever learn)....
Staffords shocking effort at a modern shopping centre is going to be left in tatters and their failure to move with the times will soon see the new riverside centre littered with empty units just like the town centre.....watch this space

Packed? Really? All of it? Perhaps they are really moving, then?I went into Primark this morning and it was packed, as was the whole shopping centre
Interesting article! No wonder Handmade Burger Co. & Byron are hitting difficulties. £10+ for a burger & then your fries/sides are extra. No chance!
