The fresh market-style foodhall includes a “showstopping” bakery that offers a range of baked bread and pastries. Customers can also grab a barista-made coffee or iced drink to enjoy while browsing and select items from a cheese barge and dedicated flower and wine shops.
Additionally, the store offers two floors of womenswear, menswear and kidswear as well as a beauty hall area.
Lipscombe said: “It’s been such a fantastic morning and we have been so excited to show customers what the store looks like now.
“Having Tom Allen join us has given the whole team a massive boost and I want to say a big thank you to our customers for their patience over the last three months – we are so excited to welcome you back.”
