Our story
Since opening in February 2001, Gunwharf Quays has been the South Coast’s premier outlet shopping destination, offering a vibrant mix of retail, dining, and leisure experiences. The rest, as they say, is retail history…
Gunwharf Quays is set against the striking backdrop of Portsmouth Harbour, with breathtaking views of the Solent and the iconic Spinnaker Tower rising above it. Located in this historic maritime city, the centre blends modern design with Portsmouth’s rich naval heritage.
We’re home to over 90 premium outlet stores offering savings of up to 60% on high-street and designer brands. With more than 30 restaurants, bars, and cafés, there’s something to satisfy every taste, from relaxed al fresco dining to cocktails with a view. Plus, our waterside location makes it easy to combine your shopping trip with a leisurely harbour stroll or even a boat tour.
At Gunwharf Quays, we’re dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service. Whether you’re here to shop, dine, or explore, our Guest Services team is on hand to make your visit seamless and enjoyable. With easy access by car, train, or ferry, and ample parking facilities, we welcome millions of visitors each year to experience everything Gunwharf Quays has to offer.
