The John Lewis Norwich store was previously known as ‘Bonds’, a name under which it traded for 122 years. In-keeping with long-established values such as quality, service and fair pricing, the store offers a high quality shopping experience over four floors from its central location.
Along with the excellent electrical, homeware, perfumery and clothing departments, which feature own-label goods as well as top brands, John Lewis offers those little extra touches that make shopping pleasant, easy and accessible for all. The store has linked multi-storey parking with a discounted rate for shoppers, an on-site 250-seat restaurant and cafeteria - 'The Place To Eat' (the crêpes make an excellent, filling lunch!) as well as the new Espresso Bar (perfect for coffee and a slice of cake and you can take away as well), a gift list service (ideal for weddings and christenings) and a Parents Room for Baby changing and feeding. There is a delivery and collection service for larger items (or if you simply want to come back later to collect your shopping).
Each department has expert advisors available to assist you when making your purchasing choices – imagine personal fashion advice from a trained fashion advisor or furnishing and nursery advice for getting those important touches absolutely right. All these services are free* and a consultation can be booked through the store.
Open Mon-Weds & Fri 9am-5.30pm, Thur 9.30am-8pm, Sat 9am-6pm, Sun 10.30am-4.30pm (10am-10.30am for browsing).
