Good to know when visiting Arcadian Centre
Busy times generally tend to be the evenings from Friday through Sunday, so if you're looking to avoid the crowds, coming for a midday lunch or during the week would be your best bet. Keep in mind that the area is also quite international, and many of the offerings are a bit different from standard English fare.
