Pad is a home, gift and card shop full of unusual products. The guys who own/run it are really friendly and are ready to help.
The shop has loads of space and so there is no problem taking the pram/baby carrier, or even your shopping from Unicorn, into the shop and leaving them while you look around. The local artwork is amazing and always changing.

The two boys (Darren and David) are lovely and always greet customers with a "hello". Nothing is too much trouble, they will order in anything that is out of stock. I asked for some nice hooks to hang keys on and two weeks later I had a choice of 4 different types of hooks. TOP CLASS SERVICE from two lovely guys.
Well done boys for being Greater Manchester's only entry in the Guardian's "Guide to the UK's finest independent shops - Gifts sector". I hope it encourages lots of new people to visit your fabulous homeware and gift shop.Send your feedback or queries to been.there@guardian.co.uk
