What travellers are saying
- Katie19 contributionsIt was such an amazing experience. There's pretty much anything you can think of here. Obviously it is rather pricey but I didn't really expect otherwise. Even if you aren't particularly planning to buy anything, I would still suggest you visit, just because it was so fascinating to look around at all of the amazing stuff. The shop itself is also wonderfully decorated, it is so mesmerising and virtually impossible to take your eyes off. There is a BRILLIANT range of toys. Because of the excellent toy range it is a good place to bring children, however, if your child/ren are/is notorious for not behaving well in shops you should probably be cautious due to the fact that there are some VERY expensive things in there.
All in all, i really liked my trip to Harrods and would love to go again.Written 5 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Belle-NoelCroydon, UK1,572 contributionsThis store is far quieter than Harrods down the road. It’s nice for a browse but the heating was on such a high temperature that I couldn’t stand being inside for too long with a mask and a scarf.
I note that they now have a burger & lobster restaurant on the top floor which is good to know.Written 2 January 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - StephenCrossDublin, Ireland17,126 contributionsPlenty of stuff and a wide variety of goods on sale over about 6 or 7 floors. Cafe at the top. Service overall is not that great.Written 26 January 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- BigHugh51Adelaide, Australia3,648 contributionsWhile staying in the wonderful city of London again, we spent the best part of one day shopping and sight-seeing in the West End.
While visiting various stores on Oxford Street, we happened upon the large House of Fraser department store, nestled amongst other department stores of a similar size.
We had visited this department store before during previous stays in London and recalled that they had been good shopping experiences. Consequently, we went in again, to see what was on offer.
The merchandise offered for sale was, as we had previously experienced. There was a good range of stock, most of which appeared to be of a reasonable quality. However, despite the fact that there was supposedly a “summer sale” underway, the prices tended to be on the high side compared to some of their nearby competitors.
The real downside to this shopping experience however, was the lack of assistance and service available from staff in the store. It seemed almost as if they were hiding from the customers. There were very few shop assistants to be seen whilst we were there. Either most of them must have been sorting stock in the store room or the store was severely understaffed.
Our opinion after our latest visit to the Hour of Fraser, is that there are better shopping experiences available in department stores elsewhere on Oxford Street!Written 3 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - bcheongShanghai, China25,957 contributionsPleasantly surprised how luxurious and expansive this department store is. 1 floor for men, 2 for women, another for kids/house and of course the basement food hall.

- GaryWalthamstow, UK21 contributionsHello am a regular visitor to the Emporium. I decided on a cycle to Hampstead yesterday 18th . As usual we visited your market . I was browsing through framed prints / paintings etc at the Curiosity Cabinet unit . I was so pleased that i had found a found a small print that i had seen on line of a Victorian chimney sweep . So excitedly i called over the person looking after the unit ( see photo ) . We had a conversation about the print and discovered that it had a pair , in a number of a series , again a Victorian scene . So i proceeded to ask the cost for both and it was fifty pounds , which i thought to expensive for ME ! As you do , i asked if that was " the best price " . The person informed me that she could reduce the price to forty five pounds , which i thought was good of her, but still to expensive for ME. So i chanced my arm and asked for the price to be reduced to 40 pounds , which the person agreed to . I asked if she accepted cards and the answer was no , so i said i would go to get the cash . Then to my complete shock the person completely changed her attitude and sarcastically said " YES" intimating that i would not come back , which i fully intended to do , as i really wanted the print . So again to myself, a group of people sat outside the café next door and my partners amazement the woman launched into an angry tirade . " do you not realise that we are trying to make a living" . I at this point was a bit confused and replied to her comment , something like " yes I'm sure its been difficult ". I went to walk away still intending to get cash to purchase the goods , when the woman again with such a red angry face told me that " if i went to Tesco's , i would not barter for discount " , this was repeated to me again , twice !! I did tell the woman at that point how disappointed i was to be treated in such a manor in a place where i have had many a happy day browsing and purchasing from your different units. To be honest the whole thing has put me of going back . This is completely the wrong way to behave with a customer .Even now i am still in shock and was completely embarrassed in front of the café worker next door and his guests in the lane . Also inevitable my partner was extremely concerned for me and the way i has been spoken to . Definitely falls below the usual high standards of Hampstead and the Emporium. I look forward to you response Regards. Gary CampbellWritten 19 October 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Skyhigh_EnigmaWeston super Mare, UK10 contributionsIf you have tome, this is a must. Amazing range of vintage clothing and memorabilia to suit all tastes. Staff were not pushy, just helpful, and the relaxed vibe was conducive to spending a while browsing. Will visit again next time.Written 9 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

- brmusicmanChicago, IL2,856 contributionsI am a stationary lover, and I deliberately sought-out this store, which is in a cool part of London. I wasn't disappointed. It's a small but delightful shop with a really well-curated selection of stationary goods and office supplies. Definitely things you will not find elsewhere, and a number of quirky but charming items. I love the care that the owners put into the selection, the presentation, etc., and the clerk was super nice and packaged up my items carefully and stylishly. It'll go on my London "must do" list.Written 18 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- OZS_ATWBudapest, Hungary2,396 contributionsNext Clothing Store is located in a nice building in Oxford Street. It was formerly Oxford Street’s Plaza shopping centre.
There is a huge variety of clothes and shoes for all ages.Written 30 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - OZS_ATWBudapest, Hungary2,396 contributionsUniqlo in Oxford Street is a nice department store not so big compared to the big one in Ginza Tokyo.
The selection of products was nice but only person could walk easily between the shelves....Written 18 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - duncangreguk2 contributionsBuyer beware purchased 2 shirts at a cost of £6995 each, checked on website once home same shirt £24.95 each and no real explanation from customer service but did get refund after travelling another 40 miles round trip to sort it outWritten 18 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
