| for a British experience? I hear Harrods is not really what it's cracked up to be. |

| Liberty of London, for the building itself. |

| I love Marks & Spencer. It isn't really a "department store", its more of a Target/Grocery store/some other store all combined in one. But they have great cookie tins, etc. that you can bring home for people you need to bring gifts home to. |

| Fortnum and Masons? |

| Depends on what you want. Liberty, Harvey Nicks, Selfridge's, or Fortnums. |

| Just got back from London, and loved wandering Harrod's, especially the incredible food court. Fun place, and I am NOT a shopping person. |

| No, you definitely should go to Harrod's. Also, if you have kids go to Hamley's. |

I meant, I stuck with food shopping, not that the stores don't have other stuff. |

| My teenage daughter never wanted to leave Harrods! The food section is amazing and DH and I did some fabulous Italian wine tasting in the wine department as well. |

| I thought Harrod's was really cool. There are things there you wouldn't seder anywhere else. The grown ups toy departments had DH drooling ama my 3yo loved the kids toy department. I enjoyed looking at the baby and kids clothes, although we didn't buy anything there except chocolate! It's also convenient to a number of the museums. DH took DS to Hamley's, too, while I went to a show, but when I went I really thought it just a British version of Toys r Us but more expensive and crowded. DS loved it though. |
