Anyone been to Nottingham IKEA recently?

Is it still ridiculously busy? I remember stories about people queuing for an hour to get in when it reopened, but has that settled down?!

Normally I’d avoid it in the school holidays, but maybe normal rules don’t apply any more.

We went 2 weeks ago and walked straight in.

We went last Saturday at about 4pm it was fine, hardly busy at all. Ate in the cafe & there were plenty of tables

Thank you. That’s helpful. Might brave it today. I hate going but what I need isn’t available online.

I went about 10 days ago to the Reading one and it was quiet but they may all be busy now with students and families getting ready for university.

I went a couple of weeks ago in the evening. It was fairly busy but walked straight in and no queues to pay.
Still forgot 2 things and had an argument with dh though

No it's just normal. I live right next to it. Although it is raining and it's always busier when it's raining.

I wouldn't go during the day at a weekend but then I wouldn't do that before Covid either.

I went to the Newcastle one at about 5.30 yesterday evening and it was really quiet.
