Harrods
If you like to shop, you'll have a whirl of good time at Harrods. It reminds me of the original Macy's in New York City. A bit confusing and also intimidating at the same time. Here's what VisitLondon has to say:

London SW1X 7XL
Established in 1849 as a humble grocery store, today Harrods is dedicated to the finest products
in food, fashion, homeware, technology and more, plus restaurants and
specialist services. Make sure you check out the Egyptian Hall, Salon
du Parfums and the Pet Department. At night, the store is illuminated by
11,500 light bulbs.
I'm adding: don't miss the book store section, and the basement for fresh food and bakery.
Marks & Spencer
You can't go wrong with M&S! London's flagship. Marks & Spencer
at Marble Arch boasts an impressive range of affordable buys. Staples
like lingerie and clothing are joined by flowers, furniture and fabrics.
There's also the M&S Café and the mouth-watering aisles of the food
hall – enough to keep even the most intrepid shopper occupied.
Selfridges (right down from M&S)
Whatever you're after – bags, shoes, cosmetics, soft furnishings, books, a speciality food hall or cafés – you'll find it in Selfridges,
London's amazing one-stop department store! There's a budget-busting
designer clothing section and The Wonder Room, home to the world's most
desirable brands, from Cartier and Chopard to Bulgari and more.
Liberty London
Opened in 1875, Liberty is one of
London's most traditional stores, but venture inside and you'll find a
whole host of cutting-edge ranges. Designers include Vivienne Westwood,
Chloé and Tod's, plus there's an impressive beauty hall and
haberdashery. Celebrating fine design and craftsmanship, Liberty is a
shoppers' paradise.
Fortnum & Mason
The quintessential English store, Fortnum & Mason
has been selling food, luggage, homewares and clothes to London's
finest since 1707. The official grocer to The Queen, the beautiful store
has four restaurants and sells the most indulgent foodstuffs. If you
want specialist teas or exquisite hampers, this is the place to go.
