Less of a stupid retail omission when you realise that it's to point you in the direction of the multitude of seated ares in their varied eating establishments where you will feel obliged to part with more of your hard-earned...

I haven't been in yet, but I was keeping my fingers crossed that we might've gotten a Fuddruckers in the food court. They are the bestest burgers ever.



I've heard a lot of bad stuff about the burger place, and that makes me sad.

With regards to the parking, it's only £1 for up to 7 hours according to the pay machine but the barriers have been kept up since the centre opened, so I haven't had to pay yet. The rates on the machine say £1 per hour though.

UnionSquare - Car

btw - Parking is £1 per visit after 6pm. not used it yet.
"You can also park for just a pound between 18:00 and 06:00 at College Street car park."

i like the travel map
UnionSquare - Travel Map

Last night I saw two lassies getting asked to leave a seat, I think because they were eating "outside" food? Seemed a bit ott attitude wise but the security guy had apparently spoken to them before so maybe that explains his mood.

what a heap of crap i'm on about today, off for lunch.
This surprised me also. Perhaps they believe they will benefit from the customers who use the parking but surely considering the scale of the project it would have been more sensible to have some form of indoor walkway from the rest of the shopping center.

Have to admit I expected it would be a bit bigger after hearing people claim it would be 'the biggest in Scotland'.
