The St John's Centre is an indoor shopping centre in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. The centre is surrounded by The Headrow to the south, Albion Street to the west and Merrion Street to the north. The centre makes up the central shopping centre to a row of three, that run up through the northern side of Leeds city centre, the Headrow Centre to the south and the Merrion Centre to the north. The centre has an annual footfall of ten million.[1] Dortmund Square lies to the front of the centre. In early 2005 the centre was refurbished.

Tenants

The main tenants are Poundland (formerly Index), the Post Office, Topshop and McDonald's, as well as several independent retailers including Jumbo Records. The first floor contains a large cafe.

Layout

The first floor is separated from the ground floor by three adjacent escalators with stairs running either side of them. Lifts also link the floors, however the two floors do not overlap in many places. The ground floor exits onto The Headrow, whilst the first floor exits to Albion Street and Merrion Street.
