Visited 09/03/2021 11am Fantastic help from a member of staff named Rachel. The new self serve machines can be a little confusing, however Rachel was swift, polite and professional in helping me with my package. Too bad the same can't be said about the manager (I assume) who was loud, rude and more than happy to insult her staff underneath her breath. Very unprofessional and according to other reviews on here this isn't the first time she has been like this. What a shame.

J. C.

Fantastic Staff and always made to feel welcome in the WHSmith store in L1. I must visit this store twice a month, and am always greeted with friendliness and politeness. This is not apparent in a lot of retail establishments these days. If you are looking to be cheered up, whilst shopping for stationary, then this is the place to go if you are in Liverpool.

WHSmith high street store with a busy Post Office upstairs. Tip: stamps can be bought/printed off the Post Office self-service machines to avoid long queues. I think there is a mail box downstairs near entrance. McDonald's coupons are usually given out with any purchase, also available at the WHSmith self-service tills. Small fridge unit contains a limited range of chilled drinks. Note there are NO sandwiches/meal deals at this store. O2 Priority items usually available at this store if you get there early.

W. Q.

Is what it is

J. R.

Good location and good for magazines and papers. No good for book selection. Only a relatively small shop though. Friendly staff.

S. M.

Quite disappointing. The most interesting thing was the post office at the top floor. The store did feel a bit cramped and lacked books such as revision guides and textbooks. If you're looking for the basic then this is fine, but expect to be disappointed if you're looking for something that's a little unusual such as a specific textbook.

(Translated) Everything is great in it, many drawing tools are available Notes of all shapes, types, and sizes There are also some computer equipment, such as a mouse, an iPod, and some accessories. There are postal services, not one office, but many, so this service is not crowded, and you will not wait for long. It consists of two floors, the upper floor is as shown in the pictures And on the ground floor you will find some snacks. In terms of hygiene, very clean, sterilization stations are at the entrance, and you must wear a muzzle. The staff are helpful and the prices are from average to expensive. Deserve 5 stars (Original) كل شي فيها رائع، عدة الرسم الرسامين كلها متوفرة المذكرات بجميع الاشكال، الانواع و الاحجام ايضا هناك بعض المعدات الخاصة بالحاسوب كالماوس والكيبود وبعض الكماليات. توجد خدمات البريد، ليس مكتب واحد ولكن العديد لهذا لا يجود ازدحام على هذه الخدمة ولن تنتظر طويلا. تتكون من طابقين، الطابق العلوي كما موضح في الصور والطابق الارضي تجد به بعض السناكس. من حيث النظافة نظيف جدا، ومحطات التعقيم في المدخل، ويجب ان ترتدي الكمامة. العاملين متعاونين والاسعار من متوسط الى غالي. تستحق 5 نجوم 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Plenty of Choice to pay for your goods, Everything Is Clearly Advertised. Not a lover of Automatic Paying Machines however is a reasonable choice in busy stores.

M. F. T.

Sadly even though the shop is in Liverpool it still sells The Sun. Plus, there are too many self-service checkouts and not enough staff for the items behind the counter.

A. D.

Poor LED lighting in shop. SMITH'S always looks a bit sorry for itself... But at least it's one shop that has remained in our high street.

J. D.

I regret that I do find this store uninspiring but it does provide a valuable service in providing a wide range of goods from stationery books sweets and sometimes post office franchises

A. G. (. R. M.

Decent store, but sometimes it's a bit difficult to find the items that you need. When you're in a hurry. Need serious merchandising upgrade.

M.

Half price books on the week of release,lots of choice,we need the shops,support them.

a. c.

Good range but expensive, it's always my last resort due to price but I couldn't find revision cards anywhere else

D. V.

Went the post office ( located upstairs) was waiting in the queue for over 10 minutes 2 staff on serving both was busy doing the digital photo and 2 on travel money if you can wait to go to another one do

D. F.

A good shop for reading material with an okay range of books and magazines. Stationary is also available with a decent range. Staff member was helpful in helping me to find something I was looking for.

P. C.

Staff are so helpful, lift being upgraded so they are assisting you using staff/goods lift.

M. E.

The staff at Bootle Strand are always happy & helpful, particularly Ian, Rachel & it's nice to see Sandra back❤

A.

That was quite, with an immense varieties of magazines, sweets, books and also the Post office is located there.

C.

Fast service on a Saturday, they have self service machines upstairs which are very quick and easy to use

A. M.

Books and all kinds of magazines..a good fast post office in one area.

A.

Pretty big shop with all the things you expect and a Post Office. Helpful staff.

g.

Great place to visit for books and post office above. With lift for easy access.

G. G.

A little messy if compared to any airport shop, but quite convenient just by a Post Office.

D. O.

With the state of the store, limited range and high prices, surely it is only a matter of time before this high street name disapsars

G. B.

A little old- fashioned now but I always seem to find what I want, plus a few unexpected bargains!

B. G.

You're asking me to write a review on a stationery store? So many pens. Blue pens, black pens, red pens, green pens. And that's just the biros. When you enter the magical world of the sharpie display the cornucopia of colours extends beyond the mere rainbow into the sublime

M. L.

Always able to get what I need. I've even got used to the Post Office being there!!

M. N.

Well presented shop with post office in-store very convenient

b. j.

Would like more staff on tills instead of being encouraged to self serve

K. Z.

There is a post office inside the WH Smith which is great if you want to send letters and parcels. Lots of stationary and pens to purchase. There is also an post office assistant to help with the many postal self service machines that are available!

R.

Mixed bags of goods sold by WHSmiths. This store also has a Post office.

Not the force that it once was. But handy for stationery and for some books.

A. F.

I use it for the post office. Queues can be long. Go with plenty of time.

E. C.

Classic Smiths, overpriced goods and a shop that looks like it may fall apart any moment. There are a good few self checkouts but they're very temperamental. The post office upstairs is convenient.

M. E.

Went for the Post Office. But good stationery anyway.

j. h.

It sells books, n papers and loads of chocolate by the tills.

K. M.

Small, but nice shop with a decent selection.

D. G.

We went in and got what we wanted from a small selection of items.

B. R.

Sill feels like they haven't moved in properly.

I. u. H.

Visited Post office where you can get your biometrics done...

R. T.

The post office is last it takes to long to get your money out

C. B.

It's ok a bit cluttered but comprehensive.

E. A.

Can be long lines but staff never stop so lines are always moving and extra staff can be called on in rush hours

J. D.

Hard to believe that upstairs is the main post office for Liverpool. Store lacks refinement.

J. B.

Lovely shop in the middle of liverpool one. Very nice selection of books and everything else you need. Has a post office on the 1st floor but can get a little busy some times.

D. W.

A bit cramped but well stocked & has a post office in it

A. D.

Nice selection but not what I was looking for.

J. S.

More reasonable prices than I thought.

A. G.

Good variety of magazines etc and stickers

S. C.

It's WH Smith, so it's a bit cluttered and there's a Post Office upstairs with everything you'd expect a city centre Post Office to have. We found what we wanted, avoided the inevitable chocolate and paid. Good but dated as a shop but.... It does have pretty much everything you know you're going to get in a WH Smith, newspapers, magazines, stationery, some books etc., etc. Can't fault it for what it does, save that the whole WH Smith offering needs updating. Please lay off the chocolate offers near the tills!!!!
