Castle Quay Shopping Centre is a shopping centre in the town of Banbury, north Oxfordshire, England.

The shopping centre is located in the centre of Banbury by the Oxford Canal, off Castle Street.[2] Banbury Museum[3][4] and Tooley's Boatyard[5] are also located here.[6] Close by is Spiceball Park. The museum is accessible over a bridge and from the Castle Quay Shopping Centre.

Castle Quay Shopping Centre has over a hundred stores.[7] Major shops (anchor stores) include BHS, Boots, Debenhams, Marks & Spencer, and W H Smith.

A stone plaque in the facade of the Corn Exchange in the Market Place commemorates the start, in 1974, of the Castle Centre, by Banbury Borough Council. [8]
