Penneys

This store is so much better than it’s Primark equivalent in Belfast, it’s well laid out, space between racks and tidy! Managed to spend about 90mins pottering about the 3 floors with my 13 & 16yr old daughters not once getting frustrated by the chaos. They were keen so buy a lot of stuff but both managed to come away with a full outfit each including shoes, a few extras and an outfit for their wee sister (2 bags full) for just over € 60

I like this Penneys so much better than the one on O’Connell! It’s a lot cleaner and far better organised, especially as the O’Connell branch undergoes its renovations. I’ll probably start going to this one.
I brought my visiting friend here (she had never been to a Penneys or a Primark) and she was understandably impressed with the prices. She bought a lot and was surprised at how quickly the prices built up!

Penneys is an Irish institution. They have a great selection of clothes and homewares for some of the best prices you will find in the entire country. I’d say almost every sheet, towel, and pair of socks I own comes from here. You can’t beat the prices and you can get t-​shirts, hoodies, and jeans year round which is handy if like me that is pretty much your standard attire. This location is one of the best as it is right near the Jervis LUAS stop and is surrounded by other great shops and a pedestrianised area. I would suggest though avoiding this place on the weekends, holidays, and tourist season as it can get extremely busy.

Absolute rubbish. I would NEVER buy clothes from them. The mens section is a bland 10% shop space littered with awful quality jeans that never fit, The zips and buttons literally pop off within 24hrs and customer service is a complete joke. I’d love to see The day nobody buys from them again and they pull their sub standard garbage out of Ireland.

Im new here in Dublin, I find much of the shopping pricey… That said my husband and I happened upon Pennys and have been frequent shoppers ever since. Pennys is perfect for household décor, small gifts and is your wardrobes best friend! Their clothing is very on-​trend and affordable. I find the stock changes weekly so if you see something you like, I would grab it while you can! Ive frequented mostly from September to November and can tell you Pennys will have all of your holiday dress and decorating needs sorted. Ir can get crowded, so plan to shop longer than you expected. Staff is on hand to help but do not make a point to pester you which I like. Five stars for Pennys.

I won’t speak for the things sold here, as I don’t know if selling things that cheap has good production practices behind it, so this review is for the beauty salon in Penney’s.
I’ve been going there basically since it opened, and it’s saved me a lot of money on eyebrow/​lip threading. As long as you don’t mind being treated in essentially an open area, not in the centre of the shop but still somewhat viewable to shoppers, the quality here is good. During the weekends it can get really busy though so important to keep that in mind as it’s first come first served, no appointments.
That said, the service is quick and efficient. The girls aren’t always super friendly, but as long as they do a good job personally I don’t mind too much, and they do do a good job.
Prices have gone up a bit, but still, I pay 14 € now for eyebrow and lip, when I used to pay 24 € elsewhere. Can’t vouch for nails though as I prefer to get those dune elsewhere.
They’ve also introduced packages now for treatments, meaning even bigger savings which is good.

This place is kind of like old navy or something. So very cheap, and so BIG.

Come on! What a complete rip-​off! This looks exactly like the Primark! The entire store. From logo till collection till the way everything was. I can’t believe it. Can they just do that?!? This was soooo fake! Somebody sue them!
Just kidding ofcourse.
I love the Penneys! If my girlfriend sets me free than I can enjoy myself there longer than she does. Wandering aimlessly through all the stuff. I just love it. Don’t know why. You tell me?

Une belle découverte qui m’aura permis de m’équiper à petit prix pour le sport.
Des prix ridicules: 4 € une brassière, 12 € une veste à capuche et les pantalons courts et longs comptez 9 €.
Le sport est décomplexé ici et moi qui attendait les soldes pour pouvoir faire le plein à Paris dans une boutique très connue, c’est raté! Et j’ai fait des économies.
La boutique est grande et les rayons interminables.
Les vendeuses sont rares mais de très bon conseil.
En cabine, pas plus de 8 articles mais pas besoin de refaire la queue ;)
Le paiement est très rapide, il y a tellement de caisses!
Une bonne expérience cheap! Mon premier primark et j’aime beaucoup.

As a photographer I have to buy lots of stuff to stock my studio, and there’s no better place than this store. Fashions, shoes and lingerie that look great at affordable prices and super-​convenient downtown location.

L’un des meilleurs Primark que j’ai eu l’occasion de faire (entre les boutiques belges: Bruxelles et Liège, anglaises: Londres et espagnoles: Elche). Un grand espace sur plusieurs étages, une déco moderne, pas trop de monde, peu de file à la caisse et un tas de collections inédites et récentes.
Mes dernières virées Primark s’orientent surtout au rayon sport (le reste né me branche plus vraiment) et sur Mary Street à Dublin, impossible de né pas trouver chaussure à son pied dans ce domaine! Plus de 10 collections différentes! Mix de couleurs, de styles, de longueurs, de matières et pour des prix totalement dérisoires: entre 9 et 13 € le collant, 5 € les brassières, 6 à 8 € les tops, vestes de 10 à 16 €, baskets 13 €!!! De l’équipement basique au plus fashion, vous pourrez craquer et vous offrir la tenue complète! 0 sacrifices et on s’en sort avec une quarantaine d’euros si vous prenez le tout et quelques accessoires (sac, essuie microfibre, gourde,…)!

There’s nothing much to say, except it is excellent in all areas:
— customer service is great;
— returns is simple (when you have a receipt);
— selection is the biggest advantage;
— prices are unbeatable.
Come here, if you’re a girl or a guy, doesn’t matter, you’ll find everything and cheaply.

Ahh Penneys… Where would we be without it. I’ll tell you where, somewhere that involves healthier bank accounts & wardrobes built from high quality basics.
Penney’s is great. & this particular one is now excellent with the clothes more spread out & much tidier than it was before it’s refurbishment. My problem with Penneys applies to all stores, not just this one; firstly everything is so cheap that I end up spending more than I should. All those «ah sure it’s only a 5r“s add up to having spent € 100 at the till & actually getting nothing that you really wanted. Secondly the quality of the clothes is never really great. I’ve yet to find a penney’s outfit that has lasted more than a couple of months. But I suppose you get what you pay for. & the arguement for pennys is that since it’s so cheap it’s nearly disposable clothing meaning you’ll always be in fashion… No if only I were a bit cooler…

I do love penny’s but this one is waaaay too big. More clothes though so more money spent and more to return the next day. Queues are mental but there are usually a lot of tills open and plenty of fitting rooms. I always spend around 80 quid every time I go in there. With dresses from 11 euro to as cheap as 21, you will always find something to wear.
Some clothes last well but at these prices you can’t expect them too realistically. But delighted you can still have a new outfit every weekend if you wish for the same price of one elsewhere.
Great for work outfits and I also manage to find outfits for fancy dress nights. Some called it fashion, but illuminous pink jumpers and leapard print jumpsuits, come on!
Would give it 5 only the shop is too big and too packed at weekends. But everyone wants a piece so you can’t blame it. It even has it’s own saying. «Your tops lovely» «Thanks, Penny’s». A foreign friend thought that’s just what you say when someone compliments you. Lol

I love Penneys, there is always a bargain to be gotten! After this store was renovated recently you feel like you are in a more upmarket store with the layout offering a good overview of what is on offer.
However there are two things that make this a 4 star instead of a 5 star…
1 — the crowds are just crazy, once they enter the clothes seem to be thrown all over the place and 2 — you feel the impulse to buy every «bargain» you see and you end up walking out with €€€ worth of cr@p that you are never going to use or wear!
You are best off having a plan of action for your trip to Penneys… go directly to the item required, do not look left or right and ensure that your eyes are shut all the way to the till! Pay for your item and run out the door and don’t look back!

There’s not a lot to be said about Penney’s that hasn’t been said before. You either love it or hate it as far as I can tell. I know it has some pretty dubious ethics, but then so do most high street shops. I do want to offer the two things I know to be true about Penneys.
1. It caters for what seems to be a pretty common Irish female figure — fairly ample chest and a bit of a belly. Having spent many a fraught moment in the changing rooms of places like Topshop and H&M, it’s nice to have someone acknowledge that sometimes an A cup on a size twelve dress just doesn’t make any sense.
2. It can be good quality. Yes, somethings fall apart within a couple of wears, but I also have cardigans, tights, dresses and shoeboots from here that have lasted as long as if I had spent four times the price on them. It’s a bit of a lottery though, and I would not advise putting anything you buy there in a dryer, just to be on the safe side. At the end of the day, its worth a gamble of ten euro to see if something does last. I’ve sold designer shoes and you wouldn’t believe the amount of those that have heels snap off after one wear.

I love primark and this is a primark in Ireland named pennys. Everything you find here are pretty much the same thing you can find in primark (London). Price range, product quality and selections etc.
Though I love primark and pennys, I can never find anything other than accessories from these stores, Just like forever21 in the states. These type of affordable trendy stores are huge, with a ton of people floating around, all over the place. The line to the fitting room are at least 15 – 20 mins long.
I still like penneys, I enjoy spending an hour or two wandering around and pick up a few things here and there. Though I am not sure if I can walk out of this store hauling bags of clothing items like everyone else.

Need cheap clothes? Come to penny’s!
Penny’s is the best to go to if you need some new cheap clothes. Fair warning though the things sold here do not last very long. A friend of mine bought a sweater for 5 euros and her it ended up having a giant rip in it 2 weeks later — it was falling apart.
This penny’s in my opinion is the nicer one than on oconnell. It’s huge, 3 floors I think? So much here check it out!

One of the best shop in street ! cheap prices, large choice and a huuuuge shop !

this place is a battle ground. BUT BEST DEALS EVER.
seriously.
you have to stop in — for Americans reading this see it as forever 21 prices but the quality is significantly better.
i got fleece lined tights here two years ago i throw in the washing machine and they still hold up and look fine.
i also bought a dress for maybe $ 30 usd wore the hell out of it then sold it to a thrift store where they consigned it at $ 45 usd — lol!
i’m a fan. — though that was before i heard allegations of slave labor and unfair practices. while i am not a fast fashion junkie — as i am more of a thrifter — i did purchase items here and find them highly satisfactory. — if i lived in ireland i would research this further.

Have they refurbished this place? Or was I just in here at a really quiet time, before the vultures swooped?
I was in this Penney’s for the first time in years yesterday and was quite taken aback by just how clean, tidy, streamlined, and well, damn funky the place looked.
All decked out in monochrome, if the scale of the place wasn’t so massive, I would nearly have thought I was in a ‘normal’ shop!!!
Even the dressing rooms seem to have been given a make-​over. Block colours accenting some walls, and clean white on the others. Lots of hooks for your clothes (I like to hang the ones I’ve tried on one hook, and the ones that are yet to be put through that torture on the other hook. I hate putting them on the same one, wrecks the process. OCD?!) They also have built-​in seats in each cubicle, and two mirrors so you can see yourself from the back /​side (not necessarily always a good thing, I will admit)
I have to say, I was just taken aback by the layout of this place. Everything was so well lined up and stacked, it was damn near perfect. Really nice merchandising as well, and some ultra-​fashiony stock. To be honest, I’ve been trying to stay away from Penneys and the likes, to stop myself from spending lots of money on lots of crap, rather than lots of money on one nice quality piece.
But the lure was too strong. I now have three dresses I will unlikely wear more than three times. And some cheapo jewelry and some shoes and some cream I didn’t think I needed and… and… and…

I visited the department store Penneys on O’Connell street. I purchased several items and while I was paying the cashier, I asked where the restroom was. She told me they had none. I could not believe this! I understand business must protect their assets, but I find it terrible that even after you’re a customer, a large department store would fail to provide facilities. I’ll never come here again.

Dieses Kaufhaus ist ein echter Mädchentraum :-)
Super günstige Klamotten, Schuhe, Unterwäsche, Home und Lifestyle-​Produkte. Ein immer wieder neues und wechselndes Sortiment lässt einen auch schon mal öfter den Laden besuchen.
Wir waren in unserem 4-​tägigen Dublin-​Besuch gleich 2x dort :-)
