Either you may find the place handy ( especially if you want to kill time while waiting for your departure) or a bad suggestion if plan is to meet a date. It has the whole second floor of fast food dining options. You will see different kind of retail stores on its ground floor. Anything that you may need for your travel (out of emergency situation) can be found here. We came in here ( a walk from our hotel)as my sis -in law had rushes due to an allergic reaction and me for a replacement for the lost prescribed eye glasses reasons. We were able to see a pharmacy store that served to both our needs. Like a typical commuter station center, it also offers services like massage in a chair service, shoe shines service, flowers , etc. Only one thing that turned me off about this place, I did not like that I need to pay a coin to get into their restrooms.

Cardinal Place is a small shopping and dining complex just outside Victoria Station's Underground…read morelifts on Victoria Street and of course opposite the stunning Westminster Cathedral., it consists of a few shops, places to eat and banks including Bill's, Marks and Spencer and Lloyds, to name one of each. The complex did seem quite modern, well laid out and staffed well for a small complex of its' size, and the location being in Victoria, central London and a short walk away from Westminster (or one stoop on the tube right next to it) is pretty handy too. It might not be a huge building, and it might not offer much which can't be found not too far away (which is actually quite typical of London) but it is a cool, albeit bang-average place. 3* - Useful but doesn't particularly stand out as special.

Cardinal Place = problem solved! Want a Birthday card? M&S will sort you out. Wrapping paper too. Present? Thorntons Chocolates and L'Occitane - fab Lunch? Boots (meal deal £3.50) or M&S (yum) - sweet Clothes/shopping spree? Topshop is 10seconds around the corner - awesome! I sound a bit sad, but really this is a cool shopping centre when you are tight on time (or just really lazy)! (Also - much as it annoyed me at first - you cannot smoke under there any more, so it's clean too :D )

Fulham Broadway is a small shopping centre, located in the Fulham/Chelsea area of London, it is a…read morecouple of minutes away from Stamford Bridge and built into Fulham Broadway Underground Station, which is pretty handy. The mall does only have a small number of stores, but I still like it. It looks fairly good from the outside, on the inside, it looks like 90% of shopping centres and doesn't stand out. Retailers here include all major mobile phone providers (Three, O2, EE, Vodafone) as well as Sainsbury's. There is also a Metro Bank. In terms of food and drink, there is Wagamama, Nando's, Starbucks and a couple of other brands. It is pretty useful to have this so close to Stamford Bridge, meaning you can grab something to eat/drink before or after a game, or stop by and get some essentials while waiting for the traffic to die down. 4*

I suppose for the area, you don't need that many shops / facilities but, still, with the Southside Shopping Centre only a 10 minute bus ride away, this place has some stiff competition. There's a huge Sainsbury's inside the shopping centre and some good restaurants and of course a cinema (a Vue cinema). There's also a Zavvi and a bookshop. It's a very simple shopping centre, only a few floors and the tube station entrance can be reached from within. Generally, I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this shopping centre. It's convenient for Fulham locals but if you don't live close by then there's no real point of going here at all...

All these info would give you the impression that this is shop not worth a visit, but you can't be more wrong. Every single piece seems ( I would say actually is) handpicked by someone who have a great taste in clothing and this is what makes this place stands out. If you want a one stop designer outlet where you wouldn't be confused with lots of stacks of different clothes, this is the place to be. The only confusion you will have will be in which one you are going to pick.

This…read morestore is massive and its known for the fabulous food hall, extravagant luxury goods, and it attracts roughly 15 million visitors per year. Harrod's also features a afternoon tea in The Georgian and it costs about $96.00 US dollars per person. We were here many years ago but I still remember the experience. It was very busy inside and we walked around for a couple of hours just looking and taking in all the beautiful products that were for sale. The architecture of the store is a stunning. We bought some souvenirs, and I also bought a purse and wallet while visiting. We loved taking pics with the life size Harrod bears. I had never been in such a majestic and exquisite store seeing so many luxury items. This store is definitely geared towards the elite and uber rich but we still managed to have a really good time. Service was ample although most of the employees we encountered were very busy hustling to locate items for anxious shoppers. A must visit while you are in London, just don't drop all your cash here.

Is this a store or a mall? That was the controversy within our family after we visited. We all…read moreagreed that it was a huge space. There are separate stores each by brand or category. They have everything from clothes to appliances to electronics to furniture. You have to pay for each items at the location and in some instances you get a bag with that store's name on it, and in others, you get a Harrods' bag. One the lowest floor are the food options, including a grab and go style cafe, a sit down food court, again with many different restaurant concepts, but all within one space, and a bakery. The entire thing is a site for the eyes and consumerism at its finest. The bathrooms are clean and things were clearly labeled. We all also agreed that this was an experience for sure!

TK Maxx is an unexpected saviour for those who struggle to find clothes to fit them and a fantastic…read moreconcept for everyone else. The idea is simple: TK Maxx buys clothes at the end of their line for peanuts and sells them for just above peanuts to the public. Their selling point is brands for a lot less, which is true and attractive enough in itself. For me however, as a gentleman of some height who struggles to find trousers in other stores and then generally gets ripped-off when he does, TK Maxx is a God-send. Not only do they buy loads of US brands which do my size, but they also very conveniently organise all their clothes by size, meaning I can simply stroll up to the rack in question and then sort through all the clothes that are likely to fit me in one fell swoop. No trekking to each store for the same outcome. AND it's super-cheap, typically £30 for trousers, which for a tall guy, is hard to find. So TK Maxx, I salute you. May you long find business in these here shores.

The store itself is about 1/2 clothing and 1/2 foodhall. The foodhall is quite nice for the size and I quite like the cheeses and the bakery offerings. The clothing selection isn't vast, but there is a good assortment of women's, men's, and a bit of kids' clothing. For the size of the store, the edit of the clothing range is a good one. Friendly and helpful employees as well!
