What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Kasbah Center is a mixed bag, with many shops in decline but a vibrant nightlife scene. While some find it seedy and deserted during the day, evenings come alive with bars and restaurants. The adjacent church is a well-maintained highlight.
"Sadly and like many of the surrounding centres this centre is in a state of managed decline. It’s better than most with a central square that is clearly used in the evenings. The surrounding shops are terrible with the exception of the Dino express shop and the smell of cannabis wafts out of the complex. A radical rethink is needed but a bulldozer may be the best option."
Andrew Brown
"Used to love this place, but what a sorry state it finds itself in now. 80% deserted or burnt out, mainly populated by drunks, junkies and street beggars, plus flies, millions of them!!! Great shame but it's time to tear it all down and start again with something up to date. Only thing that has been looked after is the beautiful church."

"Some good bargains for drink and cigs, but tbh the place is a bit seedy. Dodgy looking lads loitering next to closed shops hard to tell if they were selling gear or were for rent."
