The Arcade

Broadmead, Bristol City Centre

The Arcade is a landmark Bristol shopping destination located in the heart of Broadmead.

With origins dating back to 1825, the historic arcade has served generations of shoppers and today remains an important part of the city's independent retail scene.

Since 1985

Carter Jonas has provided retail lettings and lease consultancy advice at the property, acting for successive ownerships and supporting the long-term success of the scheme.

Positioned between Broadmead and The Horsefair, with prominent frontages opposite major retailers including Primark and Boots, the arcade benefits from strong pedestrian footfall within Bristol city centre.

The scheme comprises more than 20 retail units, predominantly occupied by independent businesses. Retailers within the arcade include specialist jewellers, watchmakers, key-cutting services, cafés, beauty operators, hairdressers and card retailers, creating a unique and varied shopping experience.

Over the years Carter Jonas has completed numerous leasing transactions and continues to provide strategic lease consultancy advice, including rent reviews and lease renewals. Through a detailed understanding of the local retail market and the property's long history, we continue to help maintain the vitality and appeal of one of Bristol's most characterful shopping destinations.
