J Kays

Soho Road in Handsworth is full of odd shops that sell a mixture of products under one roof. J Kays is testament to this. They have a wide range of electrical home appliances, kitchenware, musical instruments, toys, decorations and religious artefacts! They even stock fireworks all year round!
As you would expect from the range of products they sell; the store is large and bursting with stock. Their window display gives you a taste of how vibrant their product variety is. It’s a family-​run business, which is probably why it has an informal and relaxed atmosphere.
Their prices vary. Some products are a little dear to what popular High Street stores would offer, although they offer a repair service so you could seek technical support if something goes wrong with your appliance. On the other hand, I bought tall vases for wedding centrepieces for just £3 each, which is a bargain!

I frequent J Kays on a regular basis and it’s one of the best department stores located on Soho Rd.
They pretty much sell everything in here. Whether your after a new TV, cutlery, a cot, ornaments and vases, bedding, or religious accessories that you may need for the temple, they sell it in here.
The prices are not bad, and considering that there is a lot of competition on Soho Rd with similar outlets, this is one of the nicer places to shop.
What I particularly like about this shop is they always burn incense on the shelves behind the till, which always creates that welcoming and home feel atmosphere.
