At the heart of the borough
Rotherham Town Centre is at the heart of the borough, providing an attractive, compact location.
The town centre is home to a mix of high street favourites, independent shops, cafes and bars, as well as a bustling indoor and outdoor market and award-winning Tuesday street market.
Our many independent businesses offer products not found in mainstream shopping centres and malls, from fresh local produce to boutique clothing and handcrafted gifts. Perfect if you are looking for something different.
"Some of the retailers I thought, honestly, were better than some in the heart of London." — Mary Portas
