When it comes to shopping Harrods is one of the most recognisable and respected brands in the world. This iconic department store has occupied its Brompton Road address since 1849, playing host to the leading figures in global society since then, including the British Royal Family. Today, it is home to London’s leading designer brands in fashion, beauty, fragrance, jewellery, homeware and more. It also has restaurants run by Michelin-starred chefs, a state-of-the-art wellness centre and its own bookstore. Given the sheer size and diversity of this mesmerising retail destination, it is very easy to get lost amongst its haute couture and never want to escape. If you are interested in visiting Harrods and spending the perfect day visiting its best features, here is our exclusive guide to this luxury London shopping venue.



First things first, you need to meet with your personal shopper. Harrods provides a comprehensive, and complimentary, personal shopping service, so you can get the assistance of an expert guide as you navigate the super brands of the fashion, jewellery and accessories departments. They will be able to show you the latest designs and styles from international names like Chanel, Prada, Alexander McQueen, Fendi, Rolex, Bulgari and Gucci.


Take a restorative break from your shopping extravaganza and pop in to the Harrods Café on the third floor for one of their famous ‘Braffles’ – a delectable brioche-waffle hybrid that pairs well with both sweet or savoury toppings, so you can choose your favourite from options like salted caramel with milk chocolate chunks or ham and cheese with piccalilli.


Need something for the home? Been meaning to upgrade your devices? Pop into the Home & Lifestyle section for some designer brand accessories and then browse the latest electronics to add even more convenience to your life in the Technology department on the fifth floor.


Whilst a stroll around the sights and splendour of Harrods might be more than enough to lift one’s soul, you could also opt to indulge in some tranquil relaxation treatments in the Wellness Clinic or the Hair and Beauty Salon. The expertly staff Wellness Clinic blends ancient healing techniques with modern technology to offer a wide range of bespoke services from acupuncture to full-body cryotherapy. Country and Townhouse then recommends heading to the Hair and Beauty Salon for a much-deserved massage and blow dry so you can finish your shopping day looking fabulous.


A truly quintessential British day at Harrods simply must include a trip to The Harrods Tea Rooms for an exquisite, and traditional, Afternoon Tea. The seasonally inspired menu will serve up a tiered selection of “mouthwatering treats, from delicate finger sandwiches and freshly baked scones to picture-perfect patisserie, all freshly made” by the in-house chefs.


After you have savoured as many scones as you can, a visit to the Beauty Department will help you finish off your look with designer make-up and a signature scent. You can also stock up on the best quality skincare to keep you feeling refreshed for longer. There are over 100 brands on the ground floor alone and you can try out their new interactive stations, treatments and magic mirrors to make your beauty shopping experience even easier.
