In the heart of Aberdeen’s
shopping and entertainment
quarter is The Academy
Shopping Centre, perfectly
poised to attend to the hardcore
shopaholic’s every need. Attic
and Concept are the shops
to go to for designer brands:
housing everything from Diesel
to Urban by Pink Soda, you
won’t be disappointed with the
apparel they have in store. For
women’s wear, head to the
new Concept Boutique, which
sells exclusive brands such as
Mischa Barton Bags. I-Candy
Hair and Beauty is the place
for all your pampering needs,
so stop off for a manicure while
you’re passing through. You’ll
also find Imported Instruments
here, which specialises in
stringed instruments of all
kinds, including guitars. Food-
wise, The Academy Shopping
Centre has it all. If you fancy
an ice cream cake for a
special occasion, head down
to Baskin Robbins and ask for
any one of their 31 flavours.
Japanese cuisine can be
found in Konnichi bar, serving
anything from bento boxes to
tempura, and The Old School
House offers more traditional
drinks and dishes. If you’re just
popping in for a coffee, you’ll be
pleased to know that Costa can
also be found in The Academy.
