Vile young staff members with bad attitudes and rude to customers. I've just witnessed a lady being spoken to is a discusting manner!I feel a rethink on staffing is much needed.

Discounted book and stationery store stocking a decent range. The store is quite small and feels a bit cramped but there are some good deals to be had here.

Art, DIY, amusement and book related items at a relativly reasonable price and an appealing interior bursting with heaps of different products.

This is an awesome shop! I have bought many things from over the years here, and they have all been excellent products! Just yesterday I bought myself a Conspiracy Theories book and a crossword book for my mum. The staff are always polite and there are some amazing deals in this shop. It is located in the middle of the The Beacon (arndale) which is extremely helpful. This is an extreme hotspot for kids as The Works sell latest trends and toys. Overall, this is an amazing shop in a perfect location.

Two Haynes books for twelve quid! Fantastic. Would have been best part of fifty at a very well known High Street book shop. So Thank you the works. Well known book shop get stuffed.

If you want cheap and poor quality art supplies, then this is the place for you! If you are going to paint, then make sure you use higher quality products, the end result will be much better!

So me and my mates were hitting up the town (as you do). One of my fellow lads said "Oi bruv, wonit be a crazy idea to go to the works?" I was like Lets go for it! As we rolled to the The Works, they disallowed us from entering because I had a fat vape in my mouth at the time and was blowing wicked fat clouds. The employers looked at me like I was an alien or something. How dare they hold prejudices against vapers! If my gang wasnt their, I would of straight knocked them out isn't it. This store better be vigilante that one of these days I'm gonna come back and vape in their faces!!!

I was strolling in town, looking for some lovely Star Wars collectable books. I asked many townies where I could find some lovely Star Wars literature, and they all led me to believe that 'The Works' had a huge range of Star Wars goodies I could collect. As a 53 year old man I am, I suffer from eyesight problems. I sadly forgot to bring my Star Wars branded glasses to help me out. So therefore I went in looking for not only Star Wars products but also some assistance on findings these valuable items. Although when I entered I was not greeted by a employee but was left to shop on my own! So I struggled to find any kind of Star Wars reading material due to my lack of eyesight, furious at how I was treated I stormed out of the shop in a hurry! Although as I was leaving this establishment, a young working class male greeted me. He asked what I was looking and I told him 'For pete sake what took you so long'. I kindly told him I was looking for some Star Wars books, but to my surprise he had the cheek to turn around ask me what type of books does my son like! I exclaimed that I am a single man and I have no children and stormed right out of the shop in a great haste! I do not recommend this shop to any Star Wars fans alike as they treat you like you Star Trek (pardon the pun) fans. Good day!

Lots of interesting things to buy and a good selection of reasonable books to purchase.
