The 9 Best Gift & Specialty Shops in South Kensington, England

August 3, 2021 Diedre Savory

The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

An interesting wine shop that offers a small, but carefully selected, range of wines that are especially strong in the south of France.

Leonidas

We always go to this shop for fabulous Belgian chocolates. As well as yummy chocolates the shop also carries a wide range of Truffles, Pralines and Liquers and fresh orange peel and marzipans. It is a pleasure to visit and browse. It is also a joy to chat with the lovely Irish lady running the shop. 'Slainte'.
