Westgate Shopping Centre

There is plenty of free parking. Easy to find a spot. Close to the shops. bit busy on weekends.

Aa much as I like the variety here I was bothered by the tight roads and is just me or does the area feel empty and dirty?? Also paid public rest rooms was a new thing. I’ve never seen that before in my life. People at PB Tech are always accomodating and Look Sharp has a lot of cool stuff! The BK served me cold fries and they replaced it so top notch!

Easy to find parking always, plenty of shops inside and around the mall too. Great options for food as well.

I'm in the vicinty of Westgate most days. It has a good selection of shops, many outlets with good bargains to be had.nTwo areas of discontent.nThe management keeps taking away parking. At certain times of the day, it's impossible to get a park near where you want to shop. Example outside the AA . There's now yet more parks being removed for retail space. What's the use of more shops if you can't get near them?nMy second complaint is outside space for sitting/eating. There are many worker's who want to leave the office/shop and enjoy an outside space to eat their lunch .nI think a bit more planning in making Westgate a more user-friendly space is needed.

Received a $50 parking fine for accidentally parking in what I thought was a normal free parking spot near Woolworths/ the chemistnThe signage that said this area was paid parking was quite far from the parking spot, hanging on a perimeter fence and was white writing on a black background. It was on the perimeter fence that was backed by trees etc making it blend in. This did not stand out at all and I did not see it.nnRight out in front of the parking area is a large and brightly coloured Woolworths parking sign with an arrow. This was easy to see and I thought it was letting me know there was additional parking in that direction.nI would not have parked there if I had known I needed to pay as there were multiple free parking spots available at that time. I was very upset to come back from my grocery shop 30mins to a $50 dollar instant fine.nnPlease learn from my misfortune and check your surroundings for paid parking signs. They seem to be deliberately difficult to spot.nAs a result I won’t shop in this area again and will warn others about this misleading parking scam too.
