Harrods
Harrods is arguably one of the worlds most renowned department stores

A London institution, Harrods first opened at it's present location with three employees. It grew rapidly, employing a staff of 100 by 1880. After a disastrous fire destroyed the store in 1883, the present building was built.
Today Harrods features over 330 departments in over 1,000,000 square feet of retail space making it the largest individual store in the United Kingdom. Most of the merchandise is upscale and designer with corresponding prices - not a store for penny pinching.
Harrods aims to provide all shoppers with a pleasant experience and does have a dress code to try and facilitate this. Essentially this means no entry without appropriate footwear and clean clothing. Clothing with offensive slogans or images is not allowed.
There is an amazing choice of restaurants within the store - 26 in total ranging from quick snacks and deserts all the way up to fine dining.

Harrods Reviews
Rated
My experience at the shopping center was quite distinct, presenting features that I haven't found in other locations. I was particularly impressed by the architecture of Harrods and the careful preservation of this historic building, which is over a century old. It showcases a commendable approach to maintaining such a significant structure.

We had afternoon tea in The Georgian and it was a beautiful experience
Great service and helpful staff
The sandwiches seem to be not very fresh but we asked for replacement and it was done very quickly. Great menu of teas and jams. Slight disappointment that rose jam is no longer served. Scones were delightful as always.

Wow what a store! Truly lives up to its name. The fresh food was unreal and extensive. Fragrances from around the world in abundance like no where else. In fact all departments were so impressive with the breadth and depth.
And to cap it all off is the architecture both inside and out. Why go to museums when you can go to Harrods and marvel at it?

Love love love the food hall. Can get lost if you go to the upper floors, much to explore. Did a Moët experience with a friend — would recommend. Tho the stores didn’t have some of the necklaces me and my friend were looking for. But it was around Chinese new years so it makes sense.
