The market town of Cosham has always been a popular shopping destination. With independent retailers standing hand in hand with high street favourites, there is something for everybody here in the north of the city.

Need a break from shopping? Whatever you fancy, Cosham offers a variety of places for a bite to eat including pubs, coffee shops, cafes and takeaways. You can also take time out at one of Cosham's hidden gems. The Park at the southern end of the High Street offers an oasis of calm from the bustle of everyday life, including safe play facilities for children, tennic courts and bowls green.

There is free parking at the top of the high street or you can leave the car at home and come by bus or train – both offer easy access into the main shopping area.

If you haven’t visited before, come along to the Monday market which has plenty of stalls up and down the high street, all adding to Cosham’s local community atmosphere.
