Oxford Street
Incredibly busy at peak shopping times, so prepare to push through happy crowds. An iconic street that is worth visiting for the bigger, mainstream stores.
Lambs Conduit Street
A welcome little street that feels as if you're far away from the bustle of the city centre. There's a range of interesting shops and a pleasant pubs.
Camden Market
A little overwhelming for a first time visitor, but linger a little longer and your eyes will adjust to the spectacular range of clothing, food and art on offer
Westfield London
Large contemporary shopping mall that has pulled together the world's leading luxury brands and high-street labels, all housed in one convenient location.
Columbia Road
Every Sunday this peaceful and picturesque backstreet in Hackney is transformed into a wilderness of foliage and flowers, as one of London’s last traditional East End flower markets blossoms into life. Almost more of a cultural phenomenon than a shopping experience, a slow wander through the narrow corridor of gorgeous, sweet smelling blooms is an unmissable treat...and you’ll pick up pot plants, succulents and flowers at bargain basement prices to boot! Open Sunday 8am to 3pm.
