John Lewis The Place to Eat Highcross Leicester, I would not be surprised if this was the next store to close.

John Lewis The Place to Eat Highcross Leicester, I would not be surprised if this was the next store to close. Although the service in the cafe was good, the shop floor service is dreadful plenty of staff standing around chatting to each other rather disinterested in customers and just like M&S they don't seem to have stock and offer to order items on-line  for me. I certainly did not want to take that chance my mum has ordered a basic table and chairs from them and they have taken the money and give an estimated delivery date of one month away and if I wanted to shop on-line I would not have travelled to the store. The item I wanted from the electrical department was available from Amazon for the same price it arrived this 8 hours later and the computer gave me information about the product that the sales assistant could not give me. 🙁
