Great selections and shopping experience overall.
A significant presence of lesser-known foreign brands: expensive, exclusive and premium the métier here.
This understated and muted Regency (1818) Arcade as an early exemplar for the strictures, protocols and affectations of the retail trade.
The original haunt for the Victorian dandy flâneur and now-days a diversion for the sybaritic shopaholic and sycophantic shop assistant.
Consigned to the peripheral margins of both the heritage and retail bygones.
But not forgetting those attentive Beadles, resplendent in their Dickensian get-up.
It is 196 yards (179 m) long and runs from Piccadilly to Burlington Gardens, and opened on March 20, 1819
It is one of the oldest shopping arcades in London, one of the grand shopping arcades built in Western Europe in the early 19th century.
