Step away from the chaos and opt for the uniqueness of the Royal and Morgan Arcades. With a collection of over sixty independent shops and places to eat, you will always find something special tucked away within their walkways.
ROYAL AND MORGAN ARCADES
Cardiff has fast become a major player as far as European capital cities go. In an ever-changing, frantic-paced world, it's reassuring to know that the shopping arcades remain timeless yet have upheld that rare quality of juxtapositioning contemporary retail offerings with the bricks and mortar of past centuries that all add to the special quality of Cardiff city centre.
The arcades were built at the pinnacle of Victorian trading and were the start of the City Centre's thriving business economy. Wander through them and you'll find shops brimming with fashionable brands, handcrafted clothing, gifts, shoes, accessories, children's clothing, quality home furnishings and all with a distinctive taste of Wales and an eclectic group of traders and merchants whose individual businesses play their part in bringing together the modern influential capital that we now know, yet with its roots firmly placed in Welsh history. Combined, the Royal and Morgan Arcades offer you a special shopping experience where you will find genuine personal service and a rich mix of shops and cafés with a reputation for individuality, to suit all tastes, ages and budgets. So, come in from the cold, savour the atmosphere and discover some real treats.
Fred & Grace's in the Morgan Arcade showcases a wide variety of designer European clothing for children aged from newborn to 10 years, whether for everyday outfits or for a special occasion.
